Blizzard PROPAR336 - 1st event - uplighting

[Shane Presley]

So I just finished my first event using my Blizzard 3 watt pro par 336s, which you may or may not have been privy to my woes with Blizzard. All that aside I think they worked great, and did an excellent job, especially during the time period in which the show happened (3PM, on a full sunny day). this was a snow /winter themed wedding / performance art piece in a de-commissioned Catholic chruch, turned community center... I laser measured the ceiling from the floor to measure about 50' to the peeks. Just for comparison , the light blue wash in the alter region was 2 bars of 6 1K narrows, to compare against the 3 watt led pars on the ceiling... The leds, MORE than blew the 1K pars away....and the pars were closer to the alter....

The bars of 4, have 2 rocklit pars, on the outsides, and 2 pro pars in the middle... thats why they look slightly different

The snowflake patterns were 4 x ETC source four 36 deg (2 per truss), mounted on the same truss piece on the stage floor with the leds....
Check it out...

Community centre :lol: . I think they prefer to call it a "Center for the Arts" :roll:

Great job on the lighting though. Is the stage there on a semi-permanent basis? What did they install as a disconnect? By the looks of things they'll be needing outside production for the long term.

Hey Marlow thanks. You are right center for the arts. Although that event was not art. Lol. They put a 200 amp single phase cam source with a knife switch fused main. I installed the dimming an I'm using it. I put a single l14-30 in the Distro in the bottom of the rack which fed the juice to this event and if I ever take pa in their again. They have been good about referring me as a provider but obviously other clients have been in. The only thing that I would of changed is to NOT REVERSE the neutral and ground cams. Nobody in town ( except axial) uses rev cams. They have been great at listening to my advise. I actually directed them to fleet when they did their first event and they purchased the stage (30k!). They have added to it and it stays there. The for the kudos. I thought the daylight was going to ruin the led punch but it worked well.
