"I've been on staff at First Baptist Orlando since March 2013 and ever since I started in the lighting industry, I've been a fan of Vari-Lite luminaires," began Rush. "When the church decided to undergo a renovation earlier this year, I had been attending new product demos at the various dealers across the area and each time I saw the Series 4000 luminaires I would see something new. Because of their versatility and knowing the dependability of a Vari-Lite luminaire, we got in touch with SEAL and were able to purchase 12 VL4000 Spot and 12 VL4000 BeamWash luminaires.
"I was initially satisfied that the VL4000 Spot was a perfect solution for us as it seemed to combine all the performance attributes of the VL3000 Spot and VL3500 Spot into one fixture," added Rush. "You have shutters, an iris, two rotating gobo wheels, two animation wheels and more, all in one fixture. With the introduction of the VL4000 Spot, I get all the profile fixture design capabilities needed in a single luminaire which in my opinion is a huge leap forward."
Rush continued, "When I learned that the next fixture in the series would be the VL4000 BeamWash, I liked the idea of using a fixture with the same expansive functionality as the VL4000 Spot. I have been nothing but pleased with the performance of the VL4000 BeamWash due to the functionality and compactness of everything you get inside which is outstanding, and I absolutely love using it in Shaft mode."
