Martin 1.6 RGB colour laser for sage centre

technology, news, march 2007, COMMENTS

Vortex Lighting rose to the challenge of producing something a bit more dynamic to add to the lighting of the Royal Television Society Awards (North Eastern Region) at The Sage Gateshead at the end of January. They decided to use the new Martin 1.6 RGB Laser to project the logo of the RTS, which then “morphed” into the logo of The Sage Gateshead at the entrance to the ceremony.

Graeme Sewell, Director of Vortex Lighting Ltd, “We are proud to be the first company in the UK to have the new Martin Laser available for hire.”

Vortex had been contemplating the purchase of a laser for at least a couple of years but took the decision to wait until the technology had developed before investing. Graeme explained the background to his decision, “There are quite a number of products on the market now and a few of them have some good features, but we wanted a quality piece of kit from a respected manufacturer with all the relevant safety features and approvals and when the Martin Laser came along it ticked all the right boxes.”
