NakedEye Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Now that I think about it, I'm surprised this hasn't happened already. Didn't Cesario say last season that lighting effects were the "next frontier?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saxfreq1128 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 (edited) Rumor has it that the Blue Devils white tree poles will soon become lit up LED poles..... Go check out the lights at www.fridaynightbandlights.com. What are they creating "The Lighted Enchanted Forest"? I see a lot of people offering an opinion, but before I do, what exactly is the source on this? I'm wary of offering an opinion on a rumor.

rmurrey74 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Awesome, I can't wait to see this! I hope they really maximize the use as far as sequencing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skevinp Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 The poles are already so bright white it is hard to imagine LED lights being very visible on them. Unless they are also covering up the white in the process with whatever backing the lights have. Or maybe they are translucent enough to illuminate from the inside. For my own taste, they are already too bright. I have a hard time seeing the corps for the bright white poles, bases and plumes. I miss the pure, bad### look of deep blue, black and silver. But maybe that's just me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sideways Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 If they could only make the poles plaid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpiritVet Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 LED lights have made their way to DCA last weekend. I don't have pictures, but Atlanta CV's guard is using lit rifles, making for a very cool effect! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phan Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 On one hand I think it would be a really cool effect indoors.. On the other hand, I think it would just be another layer of distraction on a show that is already full of distractions (for me, anyway). Facts can be so misleading, where rumors, true or false, are often revealing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpiritVet Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Were they actually bright? Kevin Gamin said this: " There's some kind of reflective material on the rifles which really catches the lights when tossed, very unexpected in a good way." I honestly have no idea how they look from the stands, since I'm performing right behind them. :thumbup:/> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
