Downend Fireworks lighting

Downend firework display is Bristols biggest annual firework display and the round table committee are always looking for ways to raise the bar and keep things fresh. We where approached by Skyburst firework company to work with them to provide a fully programmed lighting display to accompany the fireworks. Everything would be pre-programmed along to the music.

“It was a pleasure to work with you on this event” – Skyburst fireworks

“This was an amazing project to be involved with, Hopefully this will blow up ” – Tom Grey – Loud Hire

What we used and what we did?

For this event we deployed 12 of our Chauvet Rogue L1 outdoor beams fo skyscan and add aerial effects. We also used x36 Q15 LED parcans and x8 Spectra floods.

We where issued the music and visuals of the firework display a month in advance. We then programmed a full lighting show in advance on capture to be able to demonstrate to the client what they would be getting.

On the day playback of the show was triggered by the timecode source on the firework controller and the Chamsys MQ70 launched the cue stacks.
