The Panasonic, NASDAQ and Reuters screens at Times Square also beamed the production to a blocked-<strong>of</strong>f section <strong>of</strong> Times Square. The outdoor crowd at Lincoln Center was estimated at 3,000 people. The opening-night performance, the first new production to inaugurate a Met season in two decades, marks the beginning for Peter Gelb as the general manager <strong>of</strong> the Met. Planning for the evening began with Scharff Weisberg consulting with the Met’s technical department on the screen type and construction. They opted for Gerriets International Gray Screen on a 36x20-foot frame, built by the Met’s scenic department. Scharff Weisberg specified, installed and aligned two Christie Roadie 25K projectors, Widespread Panic LOS ANGELES – When drawing up plans for Widespread Panic’s 28-date U.S. tour this fall, lighting designer Candace Brightman, who served as LD for the Grateful Dead for 20 years, worked with Andrew Gumper <strong>of</strong> AG Light & Sound, who assisted in the programming and visual design <strong>of</strong> the show. The duo chose a gear package built around eight Power Spot 575IEs and 32 Power Wash 575Es from Elation Pr<strong>of</strong>essional. Three truss arches were constructed over the stage, with the eight Power Spots being positioned on the center arch. The Power Washes were placed eight each on four separate strips <strong>of</strong> trussing encircling the stage, two extending diagonally at the front and two running along the sides <strong>of</strong> the stage perpendicular to the arches. “Candace was looking for something different,” said James Watral <strong>of</strong> AG Light & Sound. Among the Power Spot 575IE’s effects: an iris, 11 colors plus white and UV, 16 replaceable gobos on two wheels with gobo overlaying, a built-in 4.9mW red laser, and a 3-facet rotating prism. The Power Wash 575E wash effects are used to splash color around the stage and out into the audience with CMY color mixing. The tour’s first stop was Radio City Music Hall in New York.
