Radiohead lighting and visuals designer Andi Watson is using 48 of the BB7 10 degree spot LED fixtures around his rig – with 25 of the units in five custom 5-way frames produced by Specialz. Watson is also using 48 of the new BB4 wash luminaire models on his FOH truss. 25 i-Pix Satellite units with a holographic film are mounted on the floor in and around the backline to light Radiohead at close quarters.
Check out the offerings by i-Pix. I certainly hope I have a chance in the near future to spec a few of each of the BB-4 and BB-7 fixtures! The output is amazing.
Check out a more in-depth review of the Radiohead design and Andi Watson’s work in the i-Pix website’s article – great story!
That is pretty frickin’ awesome!
