Default Career aspirations?

While some of the (male) members of CB might think working on this show would be a dream job, I can assure everyone it's not.

I do not work, nor have I ever worked, for MGM Grand's Crazy Horse Paris.

Those aren't gobos. It's a Pani slide, coming from a 2500W HMI projector.

Cool! Did you see it, have friends working it, or are you just an expert at identifying light sources in photos?

Hmmm... after reading this:

from my backstage tour of the nude dance show, "MGM Grand's Crazy Horse Paris." As you may have read in my column, dancers meet very specific criteria. [removed descriptions] But above all else, they must have serious dancing backgrounds as deep as professional ballet.

I saw it this weekend and thought it was ok. The time between acts seemed to draw on making it loose any momentum the show had.

Also the projections were a bit over bearing. I liked it better when you could see some sidelight as well.

**** good dancers though.

Has anyelse noticed that all we're talking about really is the lighting? I like the side light Idea, maybe a littel bit of back light too. I'm amazed that's a projector though it's a crisp image even on digital photos. I got to admit, It's pretty hott. Come to think of it I'm not sure more modling would actually add to the image, I'll go back and check it out again

ps- Oh yeah, the girls are atractive too.
