Greetings to all,
I am just beginning to research this show (don't even have a script perusal). But I understand there is a scene that requires a tree to "burst into flames". I would welcome advice from anyone who has either A) done such an effect or B) has some suggestions on how to achieve it.
For lighting I have a large supply of PAR 46s & 56's. Also have (6) S4 ellipsoidals (which I plan to use for key light); and (4) of the 360Q's available for gobo use. Also 3 AMDJ autospot 150 (using HTI150 lamps). Instruments will be controlled by a Fat Frog desk.
Also have have 2 flash pots that I use regularly under the permssion of the church & local fire marshal. (I am retired and EMT with fire supression training). I am always in compliance with NFPA 1126 guidelines.
For fog/haze: 1 HES F100 fogger, 1 LeMaitre H175 hazer
The venue is the church gym ('house dims': 80ft long x40ft wide with a 20ft ceiling), The stage is at one end. Stage dims ~24ft wide x 20ft deep with 13 ft height. The effect will most likely not occur on stage, but rather in front of it, and off to one side (obviously with adequate separation from audience seating). Please advise if this description is not clear.
Thanks for any/all suggestions.
John
