GREMM1S Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 I just hire man but what sort of info you after.Particular lights or types of setups etc.The most common for house parties which looks good and isnt too hard to setup or expensive would be two disco lights on stands. Some great lights are quad-phase units and tri-stars.http://youtu.be/223M8dBomzI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

addystah Posted March 21, 2013 Author Share Posted March 21, 2013 @ Lurk6r sick setup, how much did that cost ?I'm thinking of hiring these the House Party Lighting Pack: http://www.djlightsoundhire.com.au/hire/But basically what I've seen in most setups is there isn't enough light on the DJ so he/she just seems like a silhouette when he/she is meant to be the life of the party. Any back lighting tips or such to make the DJ more visible but still keep some lights on the crowd? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurk6r Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 @ Lurk6r sick setup, how much did that cost ?2x dmx led astro globes/quiver (depending on whos manufacturing it) - $100 each (altough I started with one and it cost me $200, now their $100 at dj city)2x 15w ebay mini moving heads - $360 for the pairbig laser - $2002 mini lasers - $30 eachI use a heller remote powerboard to with double adapters to control it., $50truss $100, but i got it second hand and it came with some other lights as well.aldi smoke machine $40But basically what I've seen in most setups is there isn't enough light on the DJ so he/she just seems like a silhouette when he/she is meant to be the life of the party. Any back lighting tips or such to make the DJ more visible but still keep some lights on the crowd?I'm assuming your going to also use a truss. Personally I like to have over my table so the mini moving heads can sweep on/behind me. I suppose you could get a pair of cheap led flat pars and have them at each end of the truss facing you on.

AlexJ Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Some older onesseriously dont want people too focus TOO much on the dj. i find instead of having dedicated lights simply crack a couple of glow sticks. i have some glasses that ive painted with glow paint so they glow in teh dark which is cool. if im really keen, ill wear white and rig a uv panel above me but that is rare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
addystah Posted April 2, 2013 Author Share Posted April 2, 2013 ^ That setup looks mad ! How much did it cost ?I meant people to focus on me as some setups have the lights infront or next to their decks and not behind so that the DJ is behind the lights.
