Scorpions add XL factor in MInsk

Belarus - Distributors FE Belimlight supported German band The Scorpions recently when their Humanity World Tour played in front of 7,000 people at the Sport Arena in Minsk.

Lighting technician Ilya Piotrovsky said that in contracting FE Belimlight, the promoters were seeking a service company with a good reputation and list of complex production credits under their belt. Working with the Scorpions LD, Rainer Becker, Piotrovsky helped design the show around eight of PR Lighting's XL Wash 700, eight XL 700 and 72 Pro Pars.

"The main idea was to select fixtures that could implement fast and precise changes," he said. "The XL spot and wash lights were used right across the stage while the Pro Pars were clamped onto the front, side and back trusses." These central effect were complemented by conventional Par 64's. The lighting was controlled from a Hog iPC desk, with a Coolux Pandora Box media server driving the LED screens.

"This was a very interesting show in terms of the lighting ideas, and the way in which the stage was designed," concluded Piotrovsky.
