Total Show Pro goes with Robe
- Details
Based on the north west of this picturesque city is Total Show Pro, a full technical production company delivering lighting, sound, video and staging - design and equipment - founded by Claudio Pasos four years ago. Shortly after this they invested in their first Robe moving lights with 10 x LEDWash 600s and then in 2015 added 10 x Robe Pointes to the inventory.
There are three main project divisions to the company, the first one deals with weddings, which is a massive business in the area with so many beautiful locations and architectural masterpieces as well as the Gulf of Mexico coast only 35 kilometres away.
The second division deals with the corporate event and brand activation marketplace, which is also extremely busy for all the same reasons – the fabulous places, buildings, gardens and event spaces plus the great energy and vibes of the city – everyone wants to be in Merida!
The third sector in which the company is actively engaged is providing productions for live shows, concerts and music festivals.
The warehouse is just five minutes out of the bustle of the old town city centre and they now have 18 full time staff and naturally, a regular team of freelance technicians.
The LEDWashes were first bought to service the weddings market, and then the Pointes were added specifically for concerts and music shows, where they were increasingly appearing on artist riders.
Claudio - whose industry career started aged 12 drumming in a band - has been familiar with Robe since the brand first started, going right back to the XT series and then the AT series.
So, when Total Show Pro started and became successful, he decided to carry on with Robe. When Robe launched the Pointe, he was looking for a spot fixture with “beautiful gobos” and once he had thoroughly road tested the fixture, he knew it was the right decision.
