    Default Minimal Lighting

    Hello,

    I have been booked for a golden wedding party which is being held on saturday. The client has requested no effect lighting.

    I was wondering weather there is any alternatives that I could do/use that will allow me to still use lighting but not flashing etc?

    I was thinking of using 4 led par cans behind me uplighting the back wall/coloums and then a magic gobo moonflower on a tripod stand with a flame effect machine infront of the tripod either side of the dj booth.

    What do you think?

    Cheers,

    Tom

    I think a little more care is required to ensure that posts are in the most relevant forum section. I'll move it to the equipment forum on this occasion, but I have been deleting threads where care has not been given at the time of posting. Correct placement aids us in keeping the forum tidy, so we appreciate everyone's help in this matter. Please have a read of the link below. Thanks.

    2 led pars aimed at the ceiling will be fine.

    As no effects lighting as required I would imagine the par cans would suffice.

    I was looking to put out a bit more than 2 led par cans if I can.

    I could still use the Acme Magic Gobo moonflowers that I have got but DMX control them and set them on slow motion onto the dancefloor?

    Slow motion or not it's still effects lighting aimed at the dancefloor. As the client has specifically mentioned no effects lighting I think you'd be better to listen to your clients and scale back appropriately. Par cans will be absolutely fine in my opinion.

    Where would I place the led par cans as I am not using the 4 metre truss or 4ft deckstand?

    On the floor behind you pointing up to the ceiling, or along the walls of the venue. It's hard to be specific without knowing the layout of the room.
