Marina & The Diamonds on tour with Entec
UK - West London-based rental company Entec is supplying lighting designer Mark Wood with a lighting package and video projection package for his tour with Marina & The Diamonds, currently enjoying the success of her debut album, The Family Jewels.

The lighting rig consists of a set of six Clay Paky Alpha Spot HPE 300 moving lights, which are mounted on different height cases and on the drum riser across the back of the stage.

In front of these are four scaff poles approximately 8ft high, onto which are mounted four PixelLine LED battens, covered with two different grades of diffusion filter. These are pixel mapped and also have video run through them.

Four half mirror balls are dotted around the stage - in a randomly organised fashion - used during the grand finale of Guilty, so when they are hit by a number of narrow beamed fixtures from the floor and the air, they form a diamond shape around where Diamandis is standing onstage.

Wood issued a basic spec for overhead lights to all the venues on the itinerary, which were either provided from Entec's in-house stock or sourced by the local promoter. These were hooked in to his Chamsys MagicQ console, along with the touring rig.

For video, Entec is supplying a 14 x 9ft upstage fast-fold screen. The Christie 10K Roadrunner projector is rigged at FOH, and all the video content is stored on a Hippotizer V3 media server, triggered from Wood's desk.
