QolorFLEX Dimmers Control Award-Winning Design At Fashion Show

When designing the Robin Hood ensemble for the IIDA's 21st Annual Fashion Show in Boston, architect Dore + Whittier contacted Port Lighting Systems to see how they could best integrate LED tape and dimming control that would be consistent, flicker-free on camera, and wireless. See why the team at Port Lighting selected a combination of four QolorFLEX wireless DMX Dimmers, SHoW Baby wireless DMX, and DMXcat.

"We went with QolorFLEX wireless DMX Dimmers because we needed something that was small enough to integrate into the costume, could be controlled wirelessly, and had a strong dimming curve so it wouldn't flicker on camera. QolorFLEX delivered."

- Ron Kuszmar, VP, Architectural and Theatrical Lighting, Port Lighting Systems (Case Study)

QolorFLEX LED Tape In Evita At New York City Center

White dresses, flying cornices, and five backlit arches: See how the creative team behind Evita re-purposed five reels of QolorFLEX LED Tape, two types of QolorFLEX Dimmers, and SHoW Baby wireless DMX technology to create magic for this rock-opera revival on the New York City Center stage.

"We chose QolorFLEX because of its reliability, color quality, and affordability. The good thing about QolorFLEX is that it is tough and can be reused, so it is part of our repertory equipment now, for ongoing production use."

- Mark Mongold, Director of Production, New York City Center
