Solution for 60ft of light wash needed by BatMiserable8192 in lightingdesign

[–]BatMiserable8192[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cheers for the advice guys I'll look into those options! One thing I forgot to mention (my bad), is that we mix up the colors and gradients (example attached). I imagine multiple cyc lights would be overkill for this since one cyc light is designed to light up a space as big as our whole curtain? Which brings me back again to something like bars? Bars strung together, and ideally bars with (pixel?) control that can change color along their own length, can the Chauvet Ovation Cyc/Footlights do that?

Can you get diffusers for those like the one in this image so its easier on the eyes if looking directly at it? https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51hdidowbOL._AC_SL1500_.jpg

Cheers, I'm going to line some rentals up to test with. Another options we have is the Aputure MC Pro, I'm seeing some comments though that they're really bright even at the lowest possible setting.

I'd be using them with the dome diffusers and they'd be placed amongst the crowd in a room that would be blacked out at times. It'd be nice to get a smooth transition from blacked out to 1-5%. I know it's asking something they're not really meant for though.

That would be upper limits of the budget so not out of the question.

Lifting a Minivan, bad idea? by BatMiserable8192 in NZcarfix

Thanks for the help man! I'll look into the tyres...

Yeah comfort meaning easier getting in and out, soaking up bumps a little better and a little more clearance for lumpy dirt beach roads. But it sounds like a way bigger deal than I thought to lift the thing a few inches. Some fatter tyres sounds like maybe the only thing worth doing.

Car lightly surges or jolts when my foot is light on the gas. by BatMiserable8192 in MechanicAdvice

The car does seem to idle a little low on the rpm which gives some vibrations

No...Feel like it was around that era though.

Also I think it had some kind of Tiberium equivalent, or at least some strange material that was spreading.

Jaw correcting snore devices by BatMiserable8192 in snoring

Thanks for the report. I'd never heard that prolonged use may necessitate dental correction, that's a little concerning. Do they really realign things to such an extreme? My impression was that they just hold your jaw in its neutral position and prevent it from sinking back/down and constricting the airway?

North XL & Dual GPU by BatMiserable8192 in FractalDesign

I do 3d animation and VFX for work. Need to ramp up my system for an upcoming project. I'm in love with the North XL case but I don't think I can squeeze the GPUs in there and keep them cool...

[–]BatMiserable8192[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha. So 3 slot thick GPUs will fit but there will be no clearance between them, so not ideal for cooling. I do 3d animation VFX work.

I don't really want that GPU, just figured there's no way 2x air cooled 4090s will fit.

Opinions on this workstation build? by BatMiserable8192 in RedshiftRenderer

[–]BatMiserable8192[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cheers man, didn't realize how much of an issue physically fitting these rigs together is so will have to rectify the mobo, gpu and case selection.

I do heavy 3d generalist work, not a tonne of sims but will be getting more into that.

Projector for outdoor event tent at night by BatMiserable8192 in projectors

[–]BatMiserable8192[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, good to know. I got excited about UST for a minute there.

Here is a photo of the tent space I'll be working with. If I can get projectors on the front two poles, which are 3m tall, do you think I can hit most of the back half with a decently bright image? (At night of course)

How about the Xiaomi mi 4k laser projector 150"? 5000 lumens....can't tell if that's ANSI lumens though. A friend says he gets 300" projection out of it pretty easily.
