Showgun is ‘The Best Idea’ on Dutch TV
High End Systems’ Showgun automated luminaire recently made its debut on Dutch Television. ‘Het Beste Idee van Nederland’ (‘The Best Idea in the Netherlands’) is a live show in which people compete on the basis of their own inventions, with a selected jury and the viewing public voting on who has the best idea. The show is broadcast on SBS Channel 6 in Amsterdam.
Flashlight Rental supplied 15 Showguns. Part of the Ampco Flashlight Group, the company is one of Europe’s biggest rental houses and the first in Europe to purchase HES’ new automated luminaire.
Lighting Designer Jeroen Jans said: ”For this new high-level TV show I was looking for a fixture that was both new and fit well cosmetically into the scenery with a high LED and lamp output. The choice was easy: Showgun. All 15 units did a job well done for two months, with nice slow and smooth movement in presentation scenes, fast in action, and great colour mixing, too. The LED racking ring - what a super idea! It looks great and it gives the picture just the difference I was looking for to fit the fixture in as part of the scenery.”
