music industry’s highest profile events, with recent acts
such as Prince, U2, Greenday, Bruce Springsteen, Tom
Petty, the Rolling Stones and Justin Timberlake and Janet
Jackson taking part. For this year's Super Bowl XLIV

February 7 at Sun Life Stadium performing a wise array of
their classic hits.
Engaged in the massive production, Executive Producer
Ricky Kirshner alongside with Director Hamish Hamilton
pulled together a production crew of some of the
industry's best staging, lighting, sound and special
effects.
Show Tech
Eight full color lasers were
positioned in eight of the radial carts. Eight additional
lasers including four 50-watt yags and four of the
full-color air cooled lasers were located upstage of the New
Orleans Saints (NFC) bench. Diffraction, machidda and beam
chases filled the arena with lasers.
Fourteen Pangolin QM2000.NET systems were all networked at a
central control under the main stage.

Carnival Cruise Lines
by
LaserNet
Carnival Cruise Lines’ new 130,000-ton Carnival Dream
will introduce the line’s first outdoor laser shows that
will combine the latest in laser technology with rock
music to provide guests a unique and exciting nighttime
entertainment option. Carnival Dream’s laser shows will
be the first ever for a North America–based cruise ship.
Show Tech
Four all-weather LaserNet
ScannerPro lasers positioned high atop Carnival Dream’s
Lido Deck. Each high-wattage laser is independently
computer controlled using Pangolin LD2000 software
that synchronizes the lasers in perfect time with the
music, which is amplified by the 70,000-watt sound
system of the ship’s Seaside Theatre LED screen. The
Seaside Theatre’s jumbo-sized monitor also displays
custom-designed graphics and original music videos of the
various artists played during the show.
Melbourne AAMI football stadium
launch
by
Oracle Attractions
Australia’s Melbourne city just completed a $267 mil
stadium in the middle of the sporting precinct. Opening
night was a Rugby league test between Australia and New
Zealand. Oracle Laser launched the new stadium with
complete coverage of the unique roof triangular
structure with green and full color lasers illuminating
and enhancing the shapes and contours for all of
Melbourne to enjoy.
Show Tech
A total of 26 high powered OPS lasers were used, 16
mounted on the highest point of the lighting towers as
well as another 6 on adjacent city block structures and
scaffolding towers erected for the display and an
additional 4 x 24Watt RRYGB OPS full color lasers for the
internal playing field for animations. The entire
infrastructure for the control used fiber optic cabling as
well as 6 x microwave Ethernet links.
All lasers have
their own individual QM2000.NET systems installed, all 26
of them were linked over the network back to two Pangolin
control laptops.
Speed of Light
by
United Visual Artists
United Visual Artists was commissioned by Virgin Media
to assist them in their artistic commission to celebrate
10 years of fibre-optic broadband. The show was designed
to explore the quality of the laser beam and its ability
to transmit messages from one place to another as well
as the full dynamism of raw laser beam power. United
Visual Artists contracted ER productions to design and
manage the installation.
Show Tech
The display system was
completely automated using eight 4-watt RGB Lasers, 7
infra-red curtains and 5 of ER Productions E-Stop systems.
Because visible barriers would have detracted from the
artistic feel and appearance of the show, the infra-red
curtains were put in place to protect the public from the
high-powered lasers. If a guest were to step through the
barriers to approach the actual laser beams for whatever
reason, the infra-red 'beam' of the curtains would be
interrupted. With that interruption, the lasers
immediately cut off with a response time of less than 20
milliseconds.
Dynamic portions of the
display were controlled using Pangolin's LD2000 software.

Shakira on Giza Pyramids
by
Laseronics-me
The team of Laseronics executed a flawless laser light show
as a prelude (introduction) to the famous Latina star
Shakira. The ten minute laser light extravaganza was beamed
from the base of the Chephren pyramid (middle great pyramid)
onto a twenty thousand strong audience situated over a
kilometer away across the desert. The show was so
spectacular that the audience was expecting Shakira to come
out from the pyramids! The orange laser beam flooded the
desert creating a beautiful sea of orange. The beams were
adjusted to touch the tops of the spectators’ heads which
dyed everyone’s hair a Mobinil orange.
Show Tech
To pull off this amazing
show, Laseronics brought together, four of the most powerful
air cooled laser in the world. Two air-cooled Jenlas Lasers,
each with a single output configured specifically to beam the
strongest orange laser ever produced. One multicolor
air-cooled Jenlas laser with two outputs and one Verdi 10 Watt
laser.
All of the lasers were driven by
three Pangolin QM2000.NET systems over a
wireless network.
King Al Faisal University Innauguration
by
Laseronics-me
With a media spectacular of its own kind, HRH Prince Sultan
bin Abdul-Aziz from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia launched Al
Faisal University. The crown prince laid the foundation
stone for the high-tech private university in Riyadh in the
presence of a large number of dignitaries including senior
princes, ministries, top government officials and foreign
diplomats.
Show Tech
Laseronics aimed a white beam
on King Faisal’s palace from the Al Faisalia tower which lies
3 KM away. At the Palace, a second white laser beam aimed at a
crystal was simultaneously being launched slowly upwards from
a hole on a special hydraulic device. The reflected white
laser beam on the crystal fractured into thousands of rainbow
colors like a prism. As the show progressed, colored laser
patterns and abstracts forms projected on heavy smoke created
amazing illusions of floating images in the air.
The lasers
used where 1 Jenlas Laser with 2x 8Watt fiber coupled outputs,
a 1 watt DPSS multicolor Laser and Pangolin Software.
