Ten weeks ago Phaseshift Productions took delivery of eight Clay Paky A.leda B-EYE K10 and since then they have not stopped working.
“We started to see them appearing on specs and so thought we’d better get a demo,” said Johnny Bamford, Production Manager at Phaseshift. “Show Technology’s Keith Bradshaw demonstrated a couple and we really liked them. We saw the possibilities they offer and realized they would be a valuable purchase.”
Johnny has discovered that the B-EYE is a very versatile light or as he describes it ‘a good wash light with party tricks as well’!
The first production for the B-EYE was a six week Australian tour with English comedian Bill Bailey. The show was designed by Alex Saad after a brief from the UK. The B-EYEs were used as the main overhead wash light whenever Bill Bailey was talking however when Bill switched to song mode, the B-EYEs revealed their party tricks.
“The B-EYEs never missed a beat for the whole duration from Darwin to Tasmania and everywhere in between,” added Johnny.
