Corona: Maciej Hofstede chooses Robe for #LightTheSky Poland

Lighting designer Maciej Hofstede from design/creative direction specialist Of Course has participated in the recent #LightTheSky Poland lighting action. He was among several other companies and organisations from Krakow joining the event on May 1st, including the FOH Foundation, the Tauron Arena, Studio Techniki Oswietleniowej, Mediam and TechnoStage.

Hofstede and a crew of four - lighting crew chief Sebastian Szafranski plus Artur Szewczyk, Bartosz Sygula and Slawomir Broszkiewicz - created a heart-shaped lighting installation in the Tauron Arena’s parking lot. The shape was inspired by the LightTheSky Poland logo.

All the lighting equipment for the heart was supplied by Lighting Techniques Studio, coordinated by Slawomir Broszkiewicz, and this included 20 x Robe Pointes, 14 x Spiiders and 20 x LEDWash 800s which were arranged in the heart shape, while other parts of the building and the surrounding areas were illuminated with LED floods and Sunstrips, all programmed and run from a  GrandMA2 console.

This was one of multiple installations taking place all over Poland and Europe that evening. “The goal was to make a light-work to thank all the various essential workers who have kept everything going during the pandemic,” states Hofstede who completed the design and initial programming blocks using a visualiser at his company offices.
