For traditional metal gobo users, Rosco has produced 60 new designs, including cloud images, break ups, windows and abstract graphics. Again, the entire range of over 900 other images can be seen on the Rosco website. Some or all of these new gobos can be used in the new Rosco Vortex 360 Single/Double Gobo Rotator. This new product offers excellent flexibility in a low cost package and can rotate one or two steel or glass gobos at fixed or variable speed. The speed of rotation can be set through a switch adjustment on the plug (for fixed speed) or by lowering the dimmer (for variable speeds). The Vortex 360 doesn’t require an additional power supply - the transformer plug can be plugged directly into a wall outlet or, using a low cost adapter, into a dimmer. The Vortex 360 fits the iris slot of such fixtures as the ETC Source Four, the Altman Shakespeare, the Strand SL, the Selecon Pacific and many similar instruments.
Rosco’s range of decorative material for events, promotions or theatrical design has been greatly expanded, updated and modernised. The materials have been improved, and the range now includes diffractions and iridescents for stunning scenic effects on stage, in event rooms or on film. Rosco Slitdrape has also been given a new addition: a fluorescent finish which picks up light and reflects it for scenic applications in theatre, disco or club use, and will be available to special order in 2.4m, 4.9m, and 7.3m lengths.
In the floor range, Rosco have added a sub floor which is made up on a frame to create a solid floor which doesn’t move - very useful for uneven surfaces or to create a professional dance floor where non exists. The subfloor can be covered with any of Rosco’s dance floors.
The ImagePro has been nominated for a PLASA Product Excellence Award. See www.plasa.org/show for details.
Rosco can be found on stand E10.
