cedd Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 A lot of the Leeds based stuff is done by ZigZag lighting and 3d productions. Those being party in the park and a lot of the millenium square gigs. Stage electrics get a fair bit of use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tokm Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Sounds like school/college project time... Most of the big 'name' festivals are done by the usual suspects.. Neg Earth mainly closely followed by HSL and PRG do one or two. All the others... done by more companies than is list-able. Go do some research around t'internet/Google. Most companies list 'major' jobs, including festivals. Suitably humoured I hope :o. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ike Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 All the others... done by more companies than is list-able. Go do some research around t'internet/Google. Most companies list 'major' jobs, including festivals.Don't forget though there are a lot of companies out there that still don't have websites never mind anything interesting on them. I've also done stage lighting for a couple of small ones and site lighting for a couple of big ones. And a couple of raves if they count...

lightingyoung Posted February 23, 2008 Author Share Posted February 23, 2008 Its not a uni project, I was just wondering who did them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete McCrea Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Google. Hunt the companies down and check out their news pages. And the trade mags. There are hundreds of festivals out there, and more lighting companies. That said you will see the big names cropping up time and again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Cavill Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 We do our fair share of festivals. Along with the big raves on the East Coast, and a couple in the centre of the UK. But like most people have said, its the big names to look out for such as PRG, NEG, AC, Zig Zag, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
