    Title Description
    pdf QolorFLEX Wireless DMX Dimming at IIDA's 21st Annual Fashion Show

    Architect Dore + Whittier was submitting a design for the Robin Hood look to the IIDA Fashion Show and reached out to Port Lighting to find out how they could best integrate lighting into the costume. The theme of the show was “portals”, and the design used interior design materials such as jute webbing and burlap from flooring tiles, rockwool insulation, and laser cut pieces of cork flooring. They sought a way to illuminate the jacket and boots by integrating LED tape.

    Port Lighting used their LED installation experience from interior or theatrical projects to craft an LED and dimming solution that could look beautiful while moving and on camera. The lighting team oversaw the testing of LEDs and dimmers to use with the outfit, and the drapery department sewed and assembled the outfit.

    The lighting team from Port Lighting used four QolorFLEX wireless DMX Dimmers, one for each shinguard, one in the back plate, and one placed in a custom-sewn pocket on the right side of jacket, each controlled wirelessly with a single SHoW DMX SHoW Baby 6 device with an external panel antenna mounted backstage, giving the model free movement over the course of a two-minute choreographed walk down the runway.

    “We went with QolorFLEX wireless DMX Dimmers because we needed something that was small enough to integrate into the costume, could be controlled wirelessly, and had a strong dimming curve so it wouldn’t flicker on camera. QolorFLEX delivered.” - Ron Kuszmar, VP, Architectural and Theatrical Lighting, Port Lighting Systems

    pdf SHoW DMX Neo® Used To Help Transform Charlie And The Chocolate Factory Into A World Of Pure Imagination The new musical Charlie and the Chocolate Factory at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, has been the most eagerly anticipated opening in London's West End this year. With direction by Sam Mendes, set and costumes by Mark Thompson, and Lighting Design by Paul Pyant, it is this summer's golden ticket.

    City Theatrical worked closely with UK specialist lighting contractor Howard Eaton to realize the demanding wireless DMX requirements. As well as using SHoW DMX Neo® Transceivers and Receivers, the production marked the first use of the new D2 and D4 Dimmers.
