for some reason i thought they’d be chinese………eheheh
Hi these pictures are mine. Didn’t think anyone had spotted my reddit post!
I was working as a communications engineer for Filmmaster. These pictures are taken from the Front Of House position which was the raised building on the beach near the Kuwaiti towers.
The Video, Lasers, Fireworks, Sound, Lighting were all controlled from this one central location.
We hope you enjoyed the show!
Hell yeah ! thanks for collecting the great moments man …
Q – did you have wires running to those fireworks or was it some kind of wireless communication?
I believe that most of the pyro systems were wireless.
Great show, Toby! Thanks for sharing the photos, too.
Hey Toby,
I do tech support for Midas in the Middle East. Just curious who the Pro6 belonged to. Someone told me it was from France?

Hi CH
The Pro 6 belongs to Giles Bouvard of France.
Hey Toby do you have more behind the scenes shots?
I’m afraid not – I was a bit busy!
Hey Toby! Thumbs up for the great work. Can you give us all bloggers some information on the music used?. Thanks
Hey Toby,
What were you guys using? Riedel, Telex, ClearCom?
Could I get your email address?
CH
Hi,
I was working freelance for a sound company from the UK of which we primarily use ClearCom kit however I was only providing crew comms so it was a trunked radio system on Motorola walkie talkies.
The actual show comms were provided by a company called Overline Systems that had their own wireless radio system. See https://www.overline-systems.com/en/
damn this looks awesome
great work
any one thinks the music was just so right hit LIKE !
He is a redditor for 11 hours, which would mean that is a throw away account also, he wants to stay annon.
And this relates how?
It does not relate, just saying.
I actually had just never posted anything onto reddit before so I decided to create a account.
I would assume you took the time to post the same post to 3 diff sections on reddit.
awesome
It was a phenomenal effort… Amazing display!
awesome! btw, saw the Fireworks team at the Gulf road this morning removing their stuff… 😛
Terrific pics! Thanks for the post!
