Every year I try to catch some video of the show load-in, but fail because there's just no time to stop. But I grabbed some very quick clips from the main load in and subsequent troubleshooting on rogue lights. The lights are literally coming from one show or tour onto our show, so some of them do tend to require a bit of maintenance to get them back to 100% operation.
Video and sound quality is a bit patchy because of the less than ideal filming conditions and spontaneous nature.
If you enjoy these videos you can help support the channel with a dollar for coffee, cookies and random gadgets for disassembly at:-

    You should put your camera on one of those lights and show us the light's view.

    The new Bohemian Rhapsody movie shows "robotic" lights a lot like the ones in this video, but it was supposed to be on the Live Aid stage in the 80's. I don't think they were around back then.

    How many failures do you tend to get over the run of the tattoo? Is it just a few 'dead on arrivals' each year or do you get a few bits cr*p out during the event too?

    More computing hardware than it took to send man to the Moon, for what's basically a flipping light. It's just a light! Okay it's a moving light but still. They've been doing what this is, a lantern, a light in a box, for a thousand years or more. Couple of sticks and there's your DMX512 network.
