A major part of any performance is the light show, and in order to impress the crowds you&#8217;ll need to incorporate some unique lighting elements. Gobo images can help any DJ maximize their show to&nbsp;create a more memorable set to keep the fans coming back for more.<\/p>\n<p>The idea behind a light show during a DJ&#8217;s set is to transform the room into a breathtaking spectacle that quickly ramps up the energy of the crowd.&nbsp;The key is to select the right designs and projectors for use in various venues. The right spots, bulbs and motion effects will play into nearly any venue with the right designer behind the console.<\/p>\n<p>Below are three suggestions for enhancing your use of gobos:<\/p>\n<div class=\"inlineImageWrapper\" style=\"padding-right: 3px;margin: 10px!important;float: left;width: 30%!important;height: auto!important\">\n<figure style=\"font-size: .75em;margin: 0px!important;font-style: italic!important\">\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"A light show is an important part of a DJ's set.\" border=\"solid 1px #959595\" class=\"inlineImage\" height=\"auto\" id=\"14104413\" src=\"http:\/\/pictures.contentlead.com\/x_0_0_0_14104413_800.jpg\" width=\"100%\">A light show is an important part of a DJ&#8217;s set.<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>Incorporate motion effects &#8211; <\/strong>Motion effects can ramp up any light show quickly. Having images flashing and moving around will get the crowd following the flow of the lights, especially when the movement matches the beat.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Make custom&nbsp;gobos &#8211;<\/strong> Custom gobo designs can incorporate your logo or signature and make sure the crowd remembers who you are. You can also integrate unique images that fit the venue you&#8217;re playing to.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Use color to your advantage &#8211;<\/strong> Using a variety of color, as well as a color wheel, can help with quick switching and ensuring that color variations flow with the music. Colored light is one of the most important elements of any light show, because crowds will get bored quickly with only white light.<\/p>\n<p>Any DJ looking for some assistance with gobo design and selection can contact GoboSource for assistance, and for purchasing all of their projector needs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DJing isn&#8217;t just about music, it&#8217;s
