NEW YORK — ESTA’s Technical Standards Program has posted BSR E1.23 — 20XX Entertainment Technology — Design and Execution of Theatrical Fog Effects on its Web site for public review. It is a proposed revision of the existing ANSI E1.23-2006 standard related to glycol, glycerin or white mineral oil theatrical fog effects. The revisions propose to change the list of fog chemicals to better match those chemicals normally used in theatrical fog effects, and to better define the qualifications of those in charge of designing and executing the effects.
The proposed standard will be available for public review at http://www.esta.org/tsp/documents/public_review_docs.php through Nov. 9, 2009.
