We recently tested the BLACKY and are extremely satisfied. It’s
so easy to use and self-explanitory, that anyone in our company can install
it without instructions.
It’s a big help when everything has to go fast during complex productions.
At the moment we have two units running in a 24-hour installation and
they perform exactly how they should with no breakdowns- what more could
you want?
Michael Meliani
Sound- and Videodesigner:
We used a BLACKY and a prototype in a production in Singapore, Brisbane
and Melbourne and it it was a massive improvement over the other machines
we tried the past year. We finally have a professional solution instead
of having to wildly improvise to get the job done. Even the local technicians
were surprised that a blackout could be realised so easily.
André Schulz
Head of the Sound and Video Department at the House of World Cultures
in Berlin:
Working with artists is not always easy and a director knows how he wants
a set-up to look even if it causes the technicians a headache or two.
More often we were required to blackout a video projector, which was very
difficult when it’s not installed in a control room where you can
simply shade the lens. If it’s hanging up high in a truss, than
you’ve got a problem. One time we improvised a shutter out of a
speakerbox and a color changer, which was not too bad, but since we bought
the BLACKY, we waste a lot less time messing around in the workshop.
Tom Lee Petterson
Multimedia and Sounddesigner:
Demanding customers expect a professional presentation in any situation,
even for laptop projections. A quick blackout allows the presenter time
enough to search for the next picture, or it can mask those logos or “no
signal” screens that nobody wants to see. We’ve impressed
many customers with the BLACKY already.
In one case we presented a slide show with three projectors and BLACKY
units and achieved an impressive quick-change effect. It was a great success.
