OZ Shows and Chauvet Professional Flow with Justin Quiles in Venezuela

Venezuela – Justin Quiles’ latest hit single “La Botella” has inspired a challenge among his legion of dedicated fans who call them to dance to the rhythmic swings of this song with a bottle on their heads without saying the bottle drop. While her fans may accomplish this feat with varying degrees of success, maintaining a sense of balance seems to come naturally to this Puerto Rican-born star, not only in her fluid movements on stage, but also in her performance. way he balances different musical influences in his reggaeton sound.
Both were in the spotlight in December when Quiles made his first Venezuelan appearance in six years, giving a concert, with a production managed by Oz Shows, at the Universidad Santa MarÃa de Caracas.
Moving effortlessly with him throughout his 16-song set, a brightly colored light show designed by Jeremy Danis of Oz Shows, with production by Edgar Figuera and lineup by Milton de la Cruz that included 50 Chauvet Professional lights.
The rig’s anchor was its 24 Rogue R1 FX-B devices. The RGBW linear units, each with five lyres that could be independently mapped and controlled, were arranged on a suspended lattice grid that spanned the full width of the stage.
Some of these devices were mounted on horizontal beams, while others were positioned on vertical lines. This setup opened up a wide range of design options, which Danis and the production team took full advantage of by orienting the independent lyres in multiple directions.
Sometimes the design team had turned off some of the FX-B devices, while shining other units. Choreographed in different patterns above the head, the fixtures unfolded seamlessly with the fluid movements of Quiles and his dancers, while adding an immersive vertical dimension to the scene. Their intense power (6,008 lux at five meters) as well as their narrow beam angle enabled them to penetrate other light and atmospheric sources.
The platform’s 14 Strike 4 devices added to the boldness of the design, while creating a powerful accompaniment to Quiles’ performance. The warm white glow of these high output units also helped create an immersive atmosphere for some songs.
The rig also included 12 COLORado Batten Quad 6 fixtures. Like the five moving heads of the Rogue R1 FX-B, the six RGBA LEDs in this linear wash are individually controllable, a feature that has given rise to even more design opportunities for the OZ Shows team.
Balancing these many creative options as artfully as the best dancer in La Botella, they delivered a light show that moved with the silky grace of the artist on stage.
