UC Berkeley has incorporated four Cyrano followspots purchased from Musson Theatrical. Cyrano is touted as a compact and efficient 2500-watt HMI followspot with a high-performance quartz condenser optical system. It features a 100% iris closing in a removable cassette; 100% closing dimmer; B-size gobo holder; dichroic colour correction, variable frost, and 6-way boomerang colour changer with removable filter frames.
Ithaca College employed four Buxie followspots from BMI Supply for its Clark Theater, the school’s smaller performance space. The followspots will primarily be used for a full round or three-quarter thrust space hosting dramas and musicals. Buxie is a compact 575-watt MSD followspot with high-performance double-condenser optical system, 100% closing and removable iris, 100% closing mechanical dimmer, A-size gobo holder and 6-way colour changer.
