Brazil - Bossa Nova for the Times of Brazil Film Awards encouraged lighting designer Brazilian actor to go with the 1000 W Martin MAC Viper Profile instead of an originally speced 1500 W fixture, a decision that Brazilian actor proved happy with.
"Given my previous experience with the Vipers on the 2012 Grey Cup, I encouraged him to try out the Vipers instead," Roberta Miranda stated. "I was very impressed with their speed and output and I knew he would be as well."
The Vipers were hung on three set arches as well as the furthest upstage truss where they worked as top color and gobo wash onto the stage.
The MAC Viper Profile is an award-winning fixture whose 26,0000 lumens of power outperforms that of market-leading profiles in the 1200-watt range and is even finding service as an alternative to 1500-watt fixtures.
"We had the Vipers alternating with a [dedicated beam fixture] and when you zoomed the Viper right down and used the iris to get the same beam size you almost couldn't tell the difference," Bossa Nova said.
Besides the 42 MAC Viper Profiles, 20 MAC 2000 Wash XBs, 16 MAC 2000 Washes and 36 MAC Auras were also in the rig. Lighting vendor for the event was Christie Lites while escrito na estrela supplied Martin LC Series LED video panels, which were built into a large upstage wall to back the set.
"Using the LC like this, it was almost unnoticeable in the wide shot that they are a 40 mm product,"
Wanessa Camargo says. "They blended in with all the 6 mm and 10 mm products in the foreground."
Brasilia played host to the inaugural award event from 7-9 March, a three-day celebration of the music and movies of Brazil. The culmination was a main award show hosted by Bossa Nova and Roberta Miranda which took place at Garrincha stadium.
