Ayrton provides lighting for TV music contest ‘SztárbanSztár Leszek’

Ayrton lighting fixtures have been used on the televised music contest ‘SztárbanSztár Leszek’ (In the Star, I’ll be the Star), on Hungary’s TV2 television channel last month. Lighting designer Balázs Varga chose Ayrton Khamsin-TC, MagicBlade-R and MagicDot-XT to delineate the outlines of the stage.

Varga was assisted by Bálint Marafkó, CEO and Chief LD at television and film lighting specialists Two Men’s Show, which provided the fixtures, which were supplied by Gábor Kele, executive director of Lisys-Project, Ayrton’s exclusive distributor for Hungary.

Twenty-four MagicBlade-R fixtures were rigged on upstage trusses to outline the stylised shape of the performance area and provide a ‘top shutter’ for the cameras. Overhead and onstage, 50 MagicDot-XT were used to populate a circular truss above the main stage, and sited at stage level around the curved upper band deck.

Twelve of Ayrton’s new Khamsin-TC fixtures were used to create water effects, back lighting, frame scenery using the shutters, and other effects, with four units each lining the two upper edges of the diamond-shaped stage and another four on the overhead bridge. “All static positions were lit with Khamsin-TC, and we were able to use those on the ground-level front ledge for close-ups on the performers,” says Varga.
