I'm doing a "Dancing With The Stars" fund-raiser this weekend at a local country club. Here's the room:
For sound, I'll be setup in the left-rear corner of the pic above and was thinking to put another top on the right-hand rear corner. Sub will be by my table. There are 5 competitors and I'm thinking to usie 3 source four jr zooms (wish I had a 4th) to light the dance floor during the competition. I'm thinking 2 fixtures at the front left and right corners (from the pic) of the dance floor and maybe another in the corner in front of my DJ table. Those lights will be on crank stands at around 9 ft and will be removed after the competition is over. I'm not the MC during the competition and will be supplying 3 wireless hand-helds (2 GTD and 1 Sennheiser) for the judges and MCs (shared). After the competition is over, I'll take down the SF fixtures, put up my pair of Martin Acrobats, then dancing until 11p. This is a basic DJ package so I won't be doing uplighting or monogram. Thought about blisslights but it's hard to reach the center ceiling with that 12 foot roof lip that goes around the room. By the way, the room will be packed full as they've already sold out 250 tickets. Space will be at a premium.
First question, would you use amber gels on the SF fixtures or just plain white? Any other suggestions that you guys think might be an improvement over what I'm describing? Thanks in advance.
