Stage lighting accessories
[1] The attachment has the appearance of a large set of barn doors, but in fact there are four leaves, two larger and widening on the outside, two smaller and getting narrower towards the outside.
Depending on the size and local practices, barn doors may be attached to the pipe or the instrument with their own safety cable.
There are also half-hats or "eyelashes", which function in a similar manner but have only half the cylinder, and short hats, which are shorter in length.
Top hats are manufactured for most stationary lighting instruments with gel frames of varying sizes.
Gel extenders are similar to top hats in appearance, being a tube placed over the end of a lighting fixture.
Comes in many different sizes for all types of lanterns including, profiles, fresnels, floods and par cans A doughnut, or donut, is a thin metal or cardboard panel, similar in shape and appearance to a colour frame, but with a small diameter hole intended to reduce off-axis rays of light being projected from a fixture.
Doughnuts are designed to fit into the colour frame holder directly outside the fixture, immediately in front of lens assembly.
A moving mirror attachment is an ellipsoidal spotlight accessory that allows you to remotely re-position the beam of light, so that a single luminaire in a fixed position can be used for multiple "specials" in dozens of locations.
By placing the pattern inside of the focal plane of a fixture adjustments to image (hard or soft edges) can easily be created.
They have a much larger cross-section (thicker) than a regular gobo holder due to the motors and gearing required to facilitate rotation.
Installing the rotator in the accessory slot still places the pattern inside the focal plane of a fixture, allowing adjustments to the image (creating hard or soft edges).
The iris assembly is different from the donut as it adjusts the diameter of the beam, not the amount of off-axis light emitted.
The Right Arm conveniently repositions these devices in theatrical and church productions, corporate events, trade shows - anywhere flexibility in the light plot is needed.
