DNT Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Hi Just wondering if anyone can suggest a good gobo for use as a generic wash. In many shows I have done, I include a generic gobo wash with the Rosco brick gobo (77563) being my favourite one. I also use soft breakup (77811) and a more angular one, the number of which escapes me at the moment. The effect I am trying to create is something more interesting than just low level light for a group who may not need to be featured. I have also used foliage breakups to great effect if the show suggests is set in an outdoor or "leafy glade" type setting. I suppose I am looking to know if anyone has found any particular gobo to be useful for this type of use- one that will project rather than hold back most of the light, but still be interesting. I have also experimented with colour, but have found that in general, open white is best. Again, suggestions here would be welcome. DNT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Pearce Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 I quite like the linear range for options that let through light but still have the broken shaped light effect. They do interesting things when focussed soft too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikkicallaghan Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 I've always liked rosco 77810 slightly decfocused and with a nice subtle color in it. Used as a crossing pair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightnz Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 DHA 77805 is always a good GOTO breakup wash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
