    Default So... none of you watch American Idol

    or admit to it but, the finale was last night and lasers were used a number of times including an incredible effect for Rhianna inside a pyramid. If you get a chance, find it and check it out! J Lo's performance had a number of them as well.

    I won't leave you out their alone.... I was tuned in also =)

    Idol and X-factor have been really incorperating some solid laser displays into their shows.

    Rhianna's number was pretty sweet!

    American Idol is long boring amounts of talking, with interesting singing once in a while.
    I rarely agree with the judges, so I rarely watch it.

    Dancing with the Stars gets lasers once in a while. Not inspiring, but decent.

    DWTS is on, Mondays, no matter, what, because of a female family member who is addicted.

    I would not, myself, mind a week of Tango lessons with either the Oz chick or the Russian chick.

    We would of course, have to get her steel toed high heels, as much as a clutz as I am.

    I tried Salsa lessons at work, and that is a SERIOUS cardio workout.

    Nice Laser Production... Thats the way I like to see them mixed in with a live stage show.. Adds Class in some respects.

    Laser (the acronym derived from Light Amplification by Stimulated Emissions of Radiation) is a spectacular manifestation of this process. It is a source which emits a kind of light of unrivaled purity and intensity not found in any of the previously known sources of radiation. - Lasers & Non-Linear Optics, B.B. Laud.

    I'm kind of concerned in the legal side of things, I saw some beams going in some close looking places, but their probably all legal or whatever.

    Anyone know who did it?

    I am sure the it was legal probably a pressure pad interlock etc... (notice she didn't move much while in the triangle thingee) It just takes time and paperwork to get something approved.

    afaik, DWTS is done by 'Lightwave', (PL-members..) and Rhianna has done werk with 'YLS' (not PL'ers) in So Cal, at least for the AMAs, and (I believe..) LDP, out of Toronto / Vegas... (they're the guys that did that huge 'Superbowl' KTP-fest a couple-back.. couple of their Techs post here..) may have worked with her, as-well.. not exactly sure who does Idol, but.. likely, one of those 'own 3/4s of the Arctos-boxes in the western-hemisphere'-Co's.. Meh..
