PRG

PRG this year had much to show and tell. With no visible evidence of the grim reaper in sight, VLPS and LSD Fourth Phase shared the stand, mingling easily with one another and their respective customers. There is a review period underway examining the integration potentials, with particular focus on combining rental stock, management systems and equipment tracking. The new VL3500 from Vari*Lite was displayed - a lamp that takes the existing VL3000 and adds a shutter mechanism by removing one gobo wheel. More significantly, the EX1 media server takes the current trend for such systems to the extremes, with the ability to create stunning effects in the 3D realm. Features include keystone correction by virtual shutters (mouse grabable at each corner) and 3D movement control by pan and tilt functions on the lighting desk.
