PR Pilots Croatian Sea Coast Music Festival
The Summer Sea Coast Show takes place annually in Croatia’s picturesque seaside towns of Opatija and Rijeka on the Adriatic Sea.
This year, a crowd of around 2,000 turned up to hear Zagreb rock legends Psihomodo Pop and The Beat Fleet (TBF), a rap rock band from Split — with fixtures from PR Lighting, supplied by production company GLS, bringing the scenography to life.
The company purchased eight versatile Pilot 575s from PR Lighting’s Croatian distributors, Turbo-X d.o.o, which went straight onto the show.
The Pilot 575 has a feature set that includes two color wheels (with six colors plus white on each), five rotating gobos and three rotating prisms — all indexable. The beam can step zoom between 12, 19 and 22 degrees and twin blade shutters provide linear dimming and strobing.
GLS’ purchasing decision was based on the value for money offered by these fixtures, according to Turbo-X d.o.o’s Dario Stipic. “They (GLS) were delighted with the performance,” he said. “The Pilot 575s will now go into their rental inventory for use on shows throughout the year.”
Meanwhile, the company reports growing interest in PR Lighting fixtures from other rental companies. San Media recently purchased four PR Beam 300s and a number of other heads from the PR Lighting catalog have been sold into clubs.
