skevinp Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I'm not it liberty to reveal the source on this information at this time. Thanks for bringing to LIGHT anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plan9 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 (edited) 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?" With BD's connection to Lucas Films...you have to know they are exploring "the field" as an entertainment space together.

ashevillemurphy Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 (edited) Kennessaw Mountain HSB BOA 2012 (hint) used these all over the place in their show. It is hard to see from the "box cam" version ... and there are plenty of "mis-fires" if you find the multi-cam ... colors do not match when they are supposed to, all don't work at times etc ... I can't imagine BD doing sequential effects and keeping all those poles in the right place ... why? ... just for the difficulty factor?

srb30a Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 You beat me to the rules question ... if it is allowed then why haven't we seen even one corps use them yet? This is probably no inexpensive feat to pull off and not many corps other than BD can afford such. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acordell Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 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"? They also have a facebook page "highlighting" various marching shows that have used lights at: https://www.facebook.com/FridayNightBandLights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
