As part of his colour-rich and punchy lighting design for You Me At Six’s UK arena tour, lighting designer Louis Oliver of Okulus used an array of Showline SL NITRO 510C fixtures.
Specifying 29 of the powerful LED units from Zig Zag Lighting, Oliver rigged 18 on spines of truss in the air. Eleven of the strobes also made up his floor package upstage, where they lined the bottom of the vast video screen. “I really like the SL NITRO 510C, it’s my LED strobe of choice, my design for this show was very video-heavy, however the units held their own against the 58-foot wide x 20-foot deep video wall, as well as the other lighting in the rig,” says Oliver.
Oliver’s design was based on the band’s previous touring campaign for the ‘Cavalier Youth’ album. He magnified it for the arena run, commissioning the slick video content from Pablo Beckett of Bryte Design and specifying the Showline strobes.
“After using the SL NITRO 510C on the Churches design last year we knew that they would be perfect for the You Me At Six arena tour, I employed them as both a powerful wash at points and a super bright punchy strobe at others,” continues Oliver.
The Showline SL NITRO 510C is a cutting edge RGB & W LED strobe luminaire that delivers intense bursts of coloured and white light and dynamic effects. The tightly packed array of high power LEDs ensures maximum output.
