I have a show coming up, in a few weeks.
I want to create a great lighting effect using all of the theater lighting including the house lights.
The scene is like this... Bomb is ticking and then thrown off stage into the wing. I have a audience blinder to create the huge flash and a F-100 for a big burst of fog.
The effect, which I don't know how to write yet would be like the power is going out. Random flashing and dimming of of the lights but when the lights dim, the house lights come on flashing to counter the effect. Then it will finish in a complete blackout!
I'll be using the Insight 3 console.
I guess it would be best to use it as a cue, but I've never used the "part" of a cue. And I guess i could also use a submaster.
I guess what I'm really asking is how to write it using timings and whatever else would be needed, in 1 push of the button.
Has anyone ever created this effect?
