Hello,
Well, this year our big musical is going to be, You're a Good Man Charlie Brown. We have yet to get into really anything, but I was asked by the director to come up with a way to do this effect already,
So an actor will come into the house from the rear and run down the aisle 'flying a kite', the directors don't want to use any props, so at first I was thinking, mount a projector on a swiviling stand, but then I would have the square outline of the projection, and it just seems like it would be a lot of work to do during the show.
So, I then thought of taking one of our Mini Ellipsoids (Colortran), mounting it to a little stand, getting a gobo of a kite and sticking it in there, and I would just need a female stage pin-male edison which shouldn't be a problem, the only thing I see wrong with this, is the focus of the gobo while its moving around the room.
If anyone has suggestions or comments on my second idea that would be awesome!
