They asked Cattaneo, who they had worked with on previous projects, to design a high-impact light show to complement and support their visual narratives.

Sergio Cattaneo received the order and the first thing he thought was that he needed a series of large light beams that would fulfill two functions.. First of all, that would combine with the visual spectacle and create a sensation of spectacle and excitement and, in second place, that were visible from the entire city and surrounding areas. And for this, opted for the robotic Robe iBolts.

“It was my first choice… There really is nothing better right now., I love these devices!. They are the brightest and, therefore, the best for this job”, comments Cattaneo.

Shine from afar

He also based his choice on the experience of two other projects in which iBolts were used although in much smaller quantities., and I was very excited to be able to specify the 40 devices. “It was essential that these lights and the installation could be clearly seen from afar and that everyone attending the fan zone could enjoy them..

Pre-scheduled the shows (one main of 4 minutes long, plus a series of interludes 30 y 50 seconds) using Depence3, with the help of Alessandro Scotellaro in the CUE Design studios. Next, They had one night on site to adjust the focus and perfect the lighting, which included a laser that was also part of the light show, along with 17 strategically distributed smoke machines.
