Good morning (or afternoon),
I have a show opening in a couple of weeks and have actually been fortunate enough to have enough equipment and capacity to run not only lighting enough to wash the stage but to also add some ** gasp ** color! I have never prepared gel holders before. I have a couple of questions:
1. What kind of tape do you use to hold the gel in place? I was thinking instead of using tape, I was going to drill two small holes in the upper corner of the gel frame and use brass brads to hold the frame together.
2. Do you need to safety the holders at all? I bought some good strength flower wire (For lack of better term) that I was going to use as a small safety cable connecting the gel holder to the light's frame.
3. Does anybody have color scrollers? Are they worth the financial investment? I was looking at a couple different brands. I was also looking at the rosco (?) inteli-cue as well. Anybody use these? Any feedback?
Thanks!
