I would like to project the shadow of a sign across the back wall of my set. Because the sign would only be visible for 2 minutes, I don't want to physically build it.
I have a DMX system with 60 dimmers and a Colortran 12/24 controller. Someone told me our system would never be able to handle a gobo, but I think they were talking about motorizing. I don't need the thing to move - I just want a crisp projection across the back wall, like the sun is shining through it.
Can I make a gobo for one of my Lekos? Is that ridiculously expensive?
I notice there are some DJ-type Chauvet lights where you can make your own paper gobo (?!?!) and was also wondering if they can be used effectively on stage and punch through some spill.
Any and all advice is welcome...I'm learning something every day on this forum!
