Valentin Lemarquier Adds to Nuit du BAL’s Electric Mood with CHAUVET Professional

Wine is king in France…unless one happens to find oneself in beautiful Hauts-de-France near the border with Belgium. Thanks to its Flemish roots, the region has a strong beer culture, as evidenced by its myriad local microbreweries. Bière à Lille, a week-long festival in Lille, France celebrates this tradition with dozens of special events and samplings from over 80 different breweries. Among the highlights off the festival this year was Nuit du BAL, an electro pop show headlined by Martin Solveig, listed by the UK’s DJ Magazine as one of the Top 100 DJs, along with Upsilone, Miel de Montagne, and Victor Flash.Read More »Valentin Lemarquier Adds to Nuit du BAL’s Electric Mood with CHAUVET Professional

CHAUVET Professional Channels Intensity on Nothing More’s Spirits Tour

Seeing Nothing More live is “an experience that is hard to put into words,” one music critic wrote after going to the St. Petersburg show on the Grammy nominated band’s recently concluded Spirits Tour. That’s true, but terms like in your face, riveting, adrenaline-pumping, and emotionally transformative, do come pretty close to capturing the onslaught of sensations that rush through the heart and brain at one of this uber-talented quartet’s multi-faceted concerts.Read More »CHAUVET Professional Channels Intensity on Nothing More’s Spirits Tour

The JTSE at the Docks de Paris: CHAUVET Creates an Exceptional Frame

“A painting without a frame is like a soul without a body”, wrote Vincent Van Gogh, who knew a thing or two about creating beautiful visuals with color and movement. The CHAUVET Professional team readily embraces the philosophy of the great impressionist, which is why it has built its spaces at JTSE around the theme “Frame your scene: immersion in the frame.” Visitors to Stand #85 and Boîte Noire (Black Box) #14 will find a wide range of new CHAUVET Professional projectors designed to help them create striking visuals, enabling them to frame their productions impeccably.

Tom Campbell Reflects Many Sides of Maisie Peters’ ‘The Good Witch’ Tour With CHAUVET

Maisie Peters’ music has been called many things. Words like “beautifully melodic,” “dreamily evocative,” “passionate,” and “flowing” have often been used… But the 23-year-old singer’s expansive sound goes way beyond these appellations to embrace elements of rock, all conveyed with a compelling dramatic flair. At least that’s the view of Tom Campbell. The Bristol-based designer is in an excellent position to know, having collaborated closely with the young star almost from the beginning of her skyrocketing career. (She’s the youngest female singer to reach the top of the UK charts in a decade.)Read More »Tom Campbell Reflects Many Sides of Maisie Peters’ ‘The Good Witch’ Tour With CHAUVET

CHAUVET Professional Fixtures from Colito Enhance the Magical Experience at Luisenburg Festival

“The spectacle of nature is always new,” wrote Goethe.  The great poet, philosopher and playwright undoubtably felt this way in 1820 when he first encountered Luisenburg-Felsenlabyrinth (the Luisenburg Rock Labyrinth), declaring that the massive, irregular formation of granite rocks created “an impression the like of which I have never come across on all my walks.”Read More »CHAUVET Professional Fixtures from Colito Enhance the Magical Experience at Luisenburg Festival

Necessity is the mother of invention. The time-worn adage might sound a bit trite to modern ears, but its validity is being vividly demonstrated to sellout crowds across Europe and North America on Metallica’s M72 World Tour. The eight distinctive towers that lend a dramatic flair to the production came about when Production Designer, Dan Braun, had to find an alternative to his initial vision of creating tensegrity structures for the show. “I have been interested in tensegrity sculpture for a while and was working on this concept for an indoor show,” said Braun, who’s worked closely with Lighting Designer Rob Koenig on the production. “Our world changed, when the tour went to stadiums in the round. My first thought was ‘we can’t do that.’ But after careful consideration, I said ‘why not?’”Read More »Rob Koenig Connects Metallica to Crowd with 144 CHAUVET Professional Color STRIKE Ms

CHAUVET Professional and Squeek Lights Help Joshua Schultz Set Tone for Turnpike Troubadours at Beacon

Lighting Designer Joshua Schultz admits it; at first, he wasn’t overly enthused about lighting a show against a large, deeply rippled curtain background for his client, Turnpike Troubadours when they performed at the historic Beacon Theatre in New York City. That quickly changed, however, when he saw how this billowy background played off against light. “I was skeptical, but I quickly fell in love with having another canvas to incorporate looks onto, said Schultz. “Too many times having just a black backdrop deadens the stage. This curtain added another dimension.”Read More »CHAUVET Professional and Squeek Lights Help Joshua Schultz Set Tone for Turnpike Troubadours at Beacon

Zalight and CHAUVET Professional Help Nicolò Damiani of MG Service Accent Tones Teatro Natura

Quarries in the mountainside have been described as “windows into the heart of the earth.” They are not only a source of beauty in their own right, but also through the works of art and architecture that are wrought from the marble, granite and other stones that are procured from of them. In the case of the Tones Teatro Natura, a former quarry in Crevoladossola, a third form of beauty has been added: that of providing stunning scenic surroundings for concerts and other performances.  Work on this distinctive venue, which is located in the former Cava Roncino, began in 2020 during the pandemic lockdown. The permanent open-air site, which is a project by Tones on the Stones, opened on July 15, 2022.Read More »Zalight and CHAUVET Professional Help Nicolò Damiani of MG Service Accent Tones Teatro Natura

CHAUVET Professional Contributes to Scott Holthaus’ Flowing, No-Wall Design for Disturbed Tour

Over the course of his career, Scott Holthaus has created some extraordinarily impressive shows with large center stage video screens. But sooner or later, most things in life run their course, and at this point, the highly accomplished designer was ready for a change. “I have said it a hundred times… I’m bored with the big TV in the back,” remarked Holthaus, when discussing his design for Disturbed’s just concluded 36-date Take Back Your Life North American tour, which began April 27 at Bell Centre in Montreal and ended September 2 at the Ruoff Music Center outside Indianapolis.Read More »CHAUVET Professional Contributes to Scott Holthaus’ Flowing, No-Wall Design for Disturbed Tour
