Often flying effects are used in situations that require highly accurate lighting in order not to reveal ‘the trick’. As arguably the original architects of 3-D automated flying, we recognised that there was a distinct gap between lighting and automation. The F:light concept came about to bridge that gap, providing accurate lighting and automation synchronisation.
Simple to configure, F:light uses real-time automation data to follow objects as they move, not just with pan and tilt but also with constant beam size. F:light acts as an additional lighting console, giving the lighting designer full control and providing seamless focus information to any fixture on demand. The system is as useful for following stage trucks and flying scenery as it is for complicated 3-D moves and performer flying.
