A few basic Gobo Terms from GoboMan.com to make your life easier. Part 1






















1. GOBO-a gobo is just the template with the design,






not the whole fixture and everything. Gobos are either stock, or custom, and can be made into glass or steel. If you have questions about glass or steel gobos see earlier GoboMan posts.
2.Gobo Projector, Gobo Lights, Lekos, Not all lights take gobos! They must have the ellipsed lenses in order to be able to focus on a gobo,otherwise you just get a blob of light.
3. Gobo Sizes & Gobo Holders-each fixture not only takes it’s pwn unique gobo size, but each has their own gobo holder.
4. Will my Gobo be in color? Steel Gobos project white light unless you add a color gel filter. If using gels on stel Gobos, you will be coloring the entire design and not be able to control the color on any particular section. If you want multiple colors in your Gobo design, then you want to look at glass gobos.

Do I need to use a glass gobo to add color to my projection?


The answer is no. One way is to use gel filters to color your gobo image. There are over 130 GoboMan lighting gel filters which are perfect for this. Simply cut the gel filter to the appropriate size for your lighting fixture, and your done. If you look back in the GoboMan blogs, we also show how to use the same colored lighting gels in a split gel format, allowing you to create hundreds of color combinations.

GoboMan Super Black transparencies vs Homemade computer transparencies




The problem is the blacks. You just can’t get a good solid opaque black background. Some work better than others, but usually you get a gray background with bleed through.This occurs with a ink jet or laser printer. You can make them, but you can see the difference between the two in these photos. GoboMan uses a super saturate printing system made just for achieving a super saturated black background.
