GOBO -Custom made with YOUR design or brand. 

A Gobo (GOBO, Goes on Before Optics) is a laser cut metal stencil that is placed inside or in front of a light source, to control the shape of the emitted light. They are often used with stage lighting instruments to manipulate the shape of the light, which is cast over a space or object. A metal gobo with patterned holes allows only the desired shape or pattern of light through, casting a specific pattern of light and shadow into space.

Step 1

Book your equipment and services at studio@laeventlights.com

Custom GoBOs take minimum of 3-5 business days to fabricate. 

 

 

Step 2

Establish the best location to project your image

  • Vertical walls work best!

  • Ceilings and floors are more complex (ie. Floors you must shot from high above)

  • Select for a smooth clean surface

  • Texture, uneven or reflective surfaces are not recommended (i.e .curtains, trees, windows.)

  • Color: White or pale color surfaces are ideal and will produce a bright GoBO.

  • Black or dark colors surfaces will absorb light and will produce a slightly dimmer GoBO.

 

Step 3

Establish placement of the fixture.

  • The projector needs be positioned directly in front of the target surface. 

  • If fixture in on an angle it will askew the image; 

  • There is no option to keystone on an ellipsoidal projector. 

  • The light and stand is typically located 10-30’ from the target surface.

  • Look for a surface/ space with a dark light ambient quality. 

  • Consider turning off Ambient lights.
