Mounting lasers on stage

[JeroenVDV]

In most venues such as exhibition halls, you've got enough access to wheel in your van, trailer or any piece of equipment (scissor, manift) you're going to need, though.

That's what I mean. And most other locations like theatres, clubs etcetera either have their own Genie or a moveable grid. If I need to rig lasers I simply refuse to use a ladder.

Very stable tripods.

Very stable tripods.

I haven't completely verified this yet, but I remember reading somewhere that tripods are not to be used -possibly even due to a certain CDRH regulation.

Personally, I'd never use them anyway as there are too many variables like people bumping into them or bass vibrations. Scaffolding all the way. I also like flying truss, but only for smaller lasers or perhaps a fiber-fed projector.
