In order to celebrate the Diwali holiday with its local Indian community, Madame Tussauds featured wax figures depicting five of Bollywood’s biggest stars. Miro Cube 4C’s are installed in the “A-List Zone,” for example, to add vibrant color onto the city skyline that surrounds the figures of George Clooney, Peter Dinklage and Neil Patrick Harris. He used the fixture’s RGBW color-mixing technology in several areas around the museum to create vivid hues in the background. Mark also installed several Rosco Miro Cube 4C LED fixtures in this area to bathe the wall in brilliant reds, pinks, purples and blues. At play in this area are foliage gobos with cyan-colored Permacolor dichroic glass filters, as well as ColorWave Effects Glass gobos to give the area that “far out” feel of the late 60’s.
The personalities you find in the Haight-Ashbury area of the museum celebrate the rock & roll of the 1960’s and include wax figures of Jimi Hendrix, Jerry Garcia and Janis Joplin.
In order to create a watery surrounding for the mill, Mark installed an X24 Effects Projector and bathed the wall behind Mr. Sutter standing next to a replica of Sutter’s Mill, which is where gold was first discovered in 1848 to mark the beginning of California’s famous gold rush. Lighting designer Mark Frank used Rosco gobos, Miro Cubes and an X24 Effects Projector to provide thematic lighting for the wax figures on display at Madame Tussauds San Francisco. Also on display is the historical figure John A.
Madame Tussauds San Francisco has a number of wax figures depicting individuals that had an impact on the local Bay-Area community, including Harvey Milk, Mark Zuckerberg, Steve Jobs and the brand new figure of Steve Wozniak.
