The Creative Light 1 Plus additionally features an integrated LumenRadio CRMX module, ideal for integration into an existing DMX network.Īs for the Ellie Goulding tour, Cate Carter describes the Creative Light 1 Plus as “a fantastic fixture which has provided the extra dimension I needed.In support of her third album, Delirium, Ellie Goulding has announced North American tour dates. The integrated battery offers enormous power, with 10,000 mAh, and the selectable power modes ensure an enduring performance of up to 24 hours. Whether all pixels are used together, individually (via pixel-mapping) or via the integrated Double Layer FX engine, the visual effects are impressive. With 24 individually addressable RGB pixels, the fixture offers countless design possibilities, making it ideal for small-scale touring. Increasingly finding favour in touring and TV studio applications, the Creative Light 1 and Creative Light 1 Plus are GLP’s first battery-powered and completely wireless LED systems. “They are lightweight and magnetic, which is brilliant because they are fast and easy to rig, and the fact they don’t require power distro is also perfect.” “This tour features just me and a technician, so the fact they are battery operated and wireless meant much less work for just the two of us,” explains Cartner. There are other benefits in using a wireless DMX solution such as the Creative Light 1 Plus in a smaller-production tour. With the change in overall aesthetic, resulting in a cleaner and more minimalist scenic design – the geometry of the Creative Light Plus 1 is a perfect fit. The idea was to create a canvas where we could show provoking messages, referencing Ellie’s work as a UN environment goodwill ambassador.

“By changing from an organic concept to something much cleaner, we are able to take specific messages from youth climate leaders and include these on a banner behind the cyclorama. We map them as individual light sources, using them as block fixtures, and the interaction between the light source and cyclorama creates a wonderful halo effect,” Carter continues. “We needed to introduce an extra dimension between the two, so a grid of 36 of these fixtures are situated behind the cyclorama. Her stage set would be based around a concealed video screen, which would form the centrepiece, set behind a cyclorama – which is where the 36 Creative Light 1 Plus units came in. It would also be in accordance with Ellie Goulding’s role as a climate ambassador for the UN. “I went back to the drawing board, and based on the new brief I could see the units would now be way better for this: … more minimal, slicker and modern,” she says. But when the brief suddenly changed to a cleaner, more eco-friendly solution, GLP’s new product suddenly ticked all the boxes.
