In these difficult financial times where budgets have been slashed, what can you do to make your productions look as good or better than ever? Use GAM Patterns and your imagination to create scenic elements and backdrops that have never been seen before. Combining Patterns into new scenic elements is easy and economical, it offers the lighting designer a lot of opportunity
to be extremely creative. Combinations of GAM Gobo Patterns can be explored by clicking on Virtual TwinSpin™. Select any
two Patterns and superimpose them to see what they might look like in the gate of an ellipsoidal spotlight. Imagine the power
of GAM Patterns!
Here are some combination examples, created in minutes:

HOW TO BUILD YOUR OWN ORIGINAL DESIGNS ECONOMICALLY
1. Arrange multiple patterns behind one another to produce a brand new image. This can be done with real patterns or virtually in Virtual TwinSpin™ on www.gamonline.com where you can combine any two GAM patterns together to see what unique image they produce. |
|
2. Decide which parts of the patterns are going to form the projection and cut away what you don't want using scissors. We recommend large scissors for taking out most of the image and then cuticle scissors or small tin snips to remove the more delicate pieces of the Gobo.

3. Using GAM Gobo Tape: arrange the cut patterns on top of one another to create the projection desired, then tape the pieces together.

4. Place the composite pattern in a pattern holder and trim to fit your pattern holder. You have now made your exclusive, unique composite projection.
