I thought I would try out a new rig build to change things up a bit. I don't know if anyone else has done a timelapse of building a rig in MA3D before, so I hope you find it interesting.

It is a bit 'worts and all' as I changed a few things about while building, including changing fixture dimensions as models were not quite right, changing trusses, making alterations etc. It will evolve the more I use it, but will see what happens over time.

There is no fixed schedule for uploading videos, it is a case of as and when as I am still a key worker here in the UK as I have no freelance work coming up until 2021, and night shifts are taking their toll a little bit. As I said, I hope you find this interesting, you might find it boring. Who knows. :)

Inspirations:
This design was partly off the cuff, but based around an idea for a rig I thought up while listening to Coheed and Cambria. The main feature from that was the VL5 surrounds for the LED screens.

The trusses I just wanted to try something a little more aesthetically pleasing rather than just straight, functional trusses, and rows of moving lights to try out some interesting effects patterns, and see what is possible.

The LEDBeam 150s I would not normally have thought off, but after seeing how nimble they are and how effectively they can be used while being such a small fixture, I thought I would try them out. Thanks to Chris Curran for the inspiration (LD for Steve Hackett, formerly for Lifesigns, Ultravox to name a couple).

Rig details:
48x Varilite VL10 Beamwash
23x Varilite VLZ Spot
104x Varilite VL5 LED (using VLX Model as the fixture profile still does not work correctly in MA3D)
6x Robe BMFL Followspot
128x Robe LedBeam 150
66x SGM P-5 RGBW (Wide lens)
10x Elation Arena LED Par Zoom
8x 4 Cell Blinder
