Coloring light
This session will review techniques for coloring and correcting light with such familiar ranges as Roscolux, Cinegel and E-Colour. But you'll also learn about coloring fluorescent lights with RoscoSleeves and ChromaSleeves. Perhaps most critical is the time spent on lighting with dichroic filters. You'll learn how they are made and how that affects the color transmission. You'll learn how to work with plastic and glass color filters for maximum effect. You'll also learn which moving lights and which stationary fixtures lend themselves to Permacolor filters and the results you can expect from your specification.

Workshop Leader: Ame Strong, Rosco Color Filter Product Manager

10:30 - 12:30

Gobos and Projections
An exciting review of the exploding world of steel and glass gobos and projections. You'll learn how designers are designers are using both standard and custom gobos to achieve both mundane and amazing effects. You'll learn when to use i-Pro (plastic) projections in your Sour Four units, when to specify custom gobos and how to insure you'll get what you envision. You'll discover new design possibilities in layering either glass or steel gobos, and when to use this technique.

Workshop Leader: Josh Alemany, Rosco Product Manager

1:30 - 2:30 PM

New Products
This session is an early look at the new Rosco products at this year's LDI Exhibit. Among the products you'll see demonstrated are LitePad, the Everywhere Light. This remarkable LED device, available in a configuration as small as 3" x 3", lets you put light anywhere you need it - including on props and costumes. You'll also see the Delta Hazer, the first new water-based theatrical haze device in nearly a decade. The X-24 model of the X-Effects Projector may look the same as last year's version... but there is much more to it. Plus, more new and evolving products for your review and feedback.

3:00 - 4:30 PM

Animation Equipment
Moving, kinetic projections have been popular in theatre and concert lighting for some years now. But most lighting professionals achieve these effects without video. Instead, they use gobo rotators, like Rosco's Vortex, or gobo animators, like Rosco's Infinity or Rosco's I-Cue for precisely moving light beams from place to place. This session demonstrates all these products, and others, so you can learn to create your own effects, using only these tools and the Source Four spotlights you already own.
