Mavericks create memorable looks at Green Love
- Details
Another event putting Novi Sad on the musical map is the Green Love festival, an electronic Mecca attracting thousands of clubbing enthusiasts from Serbia and neighbouring countries such as Hungary, Croatia and Romania. For the most recent Green Love event, which saw DJs such as Metodi Hristov, Lea Dobričić and NUSHA take to the stage, AVL Projekt supplied Chameleon Rental with 16 Chauvet Professional Maverick MK1 Spot and 16 Maverick MK2 Wash luminaires for a spectacular installation.
To meet the demands of the large warehouse space, within which the 3,500 electronic music devotees were gathered, Chameleon positioned the Maverick fixtures high above the stage to shower the audience and stage alike with a potent mixture of spot and wash lighting effects.
“We were searching for a dedicated spot lighting fixture for Green Love for quite some time, but we didn’t find anything that fit the bill,” commented Chameleon’s Ivan Kršev. “But when we tried the MK1 Spot, we realised the fixture could fulfill all the requirements for a modern electronic festival: impressive light output, LED power, CMY optics and very precise step motors. Needless to say, we were very happy with its performance.”
While the Maverick MK1 Spot fixtures provided the necessary punch and energy required to support the various DJ sets, a blanket of immersive saturated colour was provided by a further 16 Maverick MK2 Wash fixtures within the rig.
“The MK2 Wash is such a strong wash fixture. The 40W LEDs provided intense colours and were incredibly bright,” continued Kršev. “Thanks to the vast coverage of the MK2 Wash, the lighting technicians were able to cover huge areas within the venue and bring the atmosphere totally in line with the music.”
