The work, as it actually looked
This page is being filled in. The rig in the video below is ours, shot at our own venue — that part is real today.
Event photography from the current season goes up here as it is shot and as the schools clear it. Until then the slots are marked as slots. There are no stock photos on this page and there never will be. If a picture is not from one of our own nights, it does not belong here.
Everything here is ours, or it is not here
A gallery is the easiest place on a website to lie. Ours is going to be slow to fill instead.
No stock.
Not one purchased image, not one generated room, not one shot from a lighting manufacturer's catalogue. If it is on this page, it happened at a Gobo Studios event.
Students only with permission.
Anything with recognisable students in it goes up only after the school says it can. If your district has a media policy, send it and we will work inside it.
Captions say what it was.
Venue, event, and roughly what you are looking at. No mood copy pretending to be a caption.
Nothing borrowed from the software side pretending to be an event.
Screenshots are labelled as screenshots.
What is here so far
Nothing in this category yet. The slots above show what is being shot this season. If you want to see the rig before it is photographed, ask — we would rather show you than describe it. Check your date
What is in the room, in plain terms
Photographs are the honest way to show a rig. Until there are enough of them, here is the same information as a list.
- Moving heads — the fixtures that swing, pan and tilt, and throw a visible beam. Three live in the DJ booth; each lighting cart carries six more. Fifteen in the room on a full build, alongside 36 PAR fixtures.
- LED wash pars — the colour on the walls and the floor. Eight to twenty depending on the room.
- Wash bars and blinders — the wide, bright hits on a drop.
- Wash bars — six 48-inch bars placed around the room rather than all at one end, so the colour reaches the far corners instead of stopping at the dance floor.
- Haze — water-based. Without it a beam is an invisible line between a fixture and the floor.
- Control — SceneRig, our own software, reading live BPM and beat phase from the DJ rig at 20 Hz. Scenes are built and previewed on a stage visualiser before load-in, in your colours.
- Sound — 12-inch powered tops with a subwoofer, scaling from two tops to six so the back of a large gym hears the same mix as the front.
Full gear-by-tier lists are on the pricing page.
