I am thinking of buying some Blizzard Puck FAB 5 lights for an upcoming show. The stage is 20'x12'x24" high, and I just want to light the front. No effx or color changes, just wash the stage. Its a block party and this stage will be for some local school performances.
A friend is lending me his 12" triangular truss with a 20ft span. Which will be on crank stands about 12' high
Would 4 of them take care of it? Or do I need more? Yes Budget is a bit of concern but I plan on adding more lights later on and I hear the Pucks are the best bang for the buck (and throw a lot of light). Right now budget is around $1200.
Next year the block party will be bigger and I will need to light a 24x20 stage. Baby steps.
I also hear that using the Blizzard DMX cables are best because regular mic cables can smoke the unit. And don't plug the DMX in when the unit is plugged in because that will smoke it too.
Input from you pros is very welcomed. And thank you in advance.
