To coincide with the new website, Goboland is also presenting a new catalogue at the show which can be downloaded directly from the website. Choose between Black Steel, Premier, Designer and Glass Gobo Collections.
Following its launch at PLASA 2010, Goboland will be promoting its GoboSlides, the economical film-based alternative to full colour glass gobos. Goboland created GoboSlides in response to the advent of the new eco LED profiles such as the award-winning Robert Juliat Aledin.
GoboSlides are manufactured on a durable, high quality projection film which gives good saturation of colour and a dense black background. Whilst plastic gobos can be printed onto acetate using a standard home printer, the quality of image resulting can be of a low standard, with pixellated appearance and a lack of true black in the image.
The advantage of a slide over a full colour glass gobo is the continuous tone reproduction of the client's original artwork. The GoboSlide is mounted into a gobo frame to enable easy installation whilst the lantern's LED lightsource ensures the gate remains so cool that GoboSlides can be projected for extended periods of time without damage.
GoboSlides will be exhibited on the Goboland stand (Lawrence Hall, Stand 125) in Robert Juliat Aledin LED profile spots as the perfect combination of high quality optics and cool LED source can demonstrate the level of fine detail, colour contrast and saturation that GoboSlides are capable of.
GoboSlides are also present on the White Light stand (Lindley Hall, Stand 31) from whom they can also be purchased as one of Goboland's major distributors.
