The New up Lighting Is Down Lighting Chauvet DJ Freedom Par QUAD-4

First look November 2015

Contents of the video

Alright guys, I'm on the floor. I'm chilling out and we've got a couple of lights here from Chauvet DJ. They're known as the Freedom Park Quad 4. Now first of all they're IP rated so you can put them outside. They're battery powered so no need for cables. Of course you've got to charge them. You can have them via DMX but it's wireless Little controller there, so at the moment they're on red. Let's have a look, let's just change that over there. There we go. Now everyone's always on about up-lighting. Up-lighting this, up-lighting that. I'm going to change it. I'm now going to do the first video ever on this lighting, which is known as down-lighting. Alright, looks bizarre, looks crazy to you, but you know what? If you could actually see.

The effect we're getting here, it's pretty good. So, video number one on downlighting. Imagine the potential. You're in the club, you're set up for a wedding and in each corner of the dance floor you've got four of these. One in each corner, should I say, and you're just pointing them into the centre of the floor. LED lighting is quite directional. You're not going to be flooding the entire room with light. You're not going to be blinding people like old school park hands did years ago. What you're doing is you're going to be having directional light where you want it to go, over the floor. Now imagine as well the potential if you had haze, smoke or even dry ice. It would look... Absolutely stunning. So, this is video number one on downlighting. All right. Chauvet DJ Freedom Par. There it is in all its glory. Like I said, it's IP rated, which means it can go outside and it can be even weed on and it's still going to work. All right. Battery powered. I'll put a link in the description. Practice and enjoy.

Thank you very much. I'm gonna get up now.
