FAQ
Questions, answered.
Can you design to a specific look or reference?
Yes — send us references, a set list or a mood and we’ll design a plot to match. We pre-visualise it so you can sign off the look before we rig.
Do you operate the lighting live?
We do. We programme cues and operate live, busking the moments that call for it. You can also dry-hire the rig if you have your own LD.
What control systems do you use?
Primarily Avolites, running CHAUVET, Equinox and eLumen8 fixtures. If your show files are built for a specific desk, tell us and we’ll match it.
Can you handle outdoor and festival stages?
Yes, with weather-rated fixtures, IP-rated cabling and the right power distribution. We’ll plan for the conditions.
Let’s light it up.
