More ways to make a tree grow on stage!

One effective way to make the Christmas tree grow is with identical gobos and two light fixtures with different focal lengths.

Focus two identical patterns on one spot in units with different focal lengths (so the pool of light from one is larger than the other. I might increase the wattage in the unit with the larger pool of light to balance the intensity of the two units.) If you use a Rosco Universal pattern holder and a steel tree and a glass prismatic gobo it look fabulous. We suggest:

Combine Christmas Complete -
Rosco 77227
with Kaleidoscope -
Rosco 3801
or Spring Greens -
Rosco 3803

Two more "hi-tech" ideas for growing a Christmas Tree on stage . . .

Using the Source 4 Revolution the patterns can be rotated from one static image to another. This eliminates the problem of lining up units from different angles. Using the Image Pro projector you can create a full color image of the Christmas tree that is as photorealistic or cartoonish as you wish. (The I-Pros are available from the Limelight rental stock) and custom or library images are approximately $35.
