Spin Doctor,
Yeah maybe one day we will be headlining with the DJs. That is the dream anyway.:)
Often the best sets are working with the DJ's. I was pitching for a new night last night and talkng with the promoters/DJ's I was saying that if you let me know to start with some of the tracks you play I can tailor the set more to suit them the night.
The worst thing is that we VJ's for 6 hours or so and the DJ only do a 2 hour stint.:eyes:
biznology,
*Shudder* The bad vis displays I feel more harm than good for the 'visuals in clubs' cause.
As I am involved in the devolpment of MilkDrop it is the main focus of my work. I think there is a space for both the automatic sound reactive stuff mixed intellegently with relevant images. I think you will see more of this in the future...wether people notice is another matter though.:)
Thanks for the unbaised clubbers insight so far people.:)
Cheers,

sorry if it's ot...
but, r the lasers bad if u stare into them?
i guess so...but almost every event i've been to with lasers, they get aimed into the crowd, so i guess if u look into them that can be bad for ur vision...or are they low powered ones...but even a low power laser is still harmful isn't it?

I don't know the specifics but I think that a extremely short exposure is going to be non harmful......
concerning vj : well ... I started my residency last night!
and yes visuals are important and it's a growing community, but it demands a big financial investment which is major pain in arse :p |

The ppl ur with, the attitude of the others in club/rave, and the music/dj are more important than visuals. Obviously visuals help the mood but like someone said i like lazers better than images projected on a wall.
Btw, scantly clad chix dancing in cages rule :crazy: Why are things that are so wrong feel so right? :happy2: |

| How do you get into the VJ business? Do you need any qualifications/experience? It's not something you can really practise in the bedroom is it? |
