Jake was also impressed with the end results, commenting: “Vista 3 has delivered everything I wanted creatively. All in all, in my opinion there are just no limitations with the new software. The new command line is also brilliant and makes it a lot easier to use Vista offline, and program when you can’t actually see the real fixtures. Combined with being able to overlay my fixtures over Jake’s lighting plans, this saved a load of time. When programming the show, Vista 3’s new window workspaces ensured that I had everything I needed right at my fingertips, when moving from space to space. The timeline and advanced FX engine made my job look easy to achieve the pixel-perfect programming that was needed, with something often happening on every musical note. He commented: “I absolutely love Vista 3. Between them, the theatrical installations utilise over 1,200 fixtures.

Robert Price (Associate LD, Programmer and long-time Vista user), used the new Vista 3 software and his Vista S1 console to programme the lighting for each space. Lighting Designer, Jake Wiltshire selected the Vista by Chroma-Q control system to bring his creative vision to life for the unique lighting needs of each set design.įor The Rite of Spring, LED strip effects are smoothly blended together to create a natural ‘churning’ look for the smooth-flowing volcanic hot magma for The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, moving lights are precision controlled to create an organic feel in sync with the music and actors’ choreography and for Dance of the Hours, a more traditional cabaret-style big show look was created for performances on stage.
