In the event lighting business, I get the opportunity to meet a lot of creative people doing some exciting things. Scott Buchanan is one of those people, and he recently asked me to be a part of S.C.E.N.E's Sunset Hang at Salem Willow's Park. A day-long exhibition of DJ's spinning all types of music, the evening culminated in us lighting up the Willow's mid-century modern cantilevered canopy stage.

For this installation, we used our trusted Astera lights to create a canopy of light that was able to match the work of projection artist Chris Konopka. In addition, an X-Laser Skywriter (which you can buy from us) was used to project graphics above the projection. Not a single wire was run other than the USB cable between the laptop and the laser. The rest of the installation was completely wireless and battery powered. The lights are so bright that we ran them at 1/2 power so as not to wash out the video.

Take a look and see how we can bring this look to your next concert--indoors or out.
