ShowPro continues to stay on the cutting edge of digital lighting innovation, offering instruments that can be considered lights as well as video displays. LED lights can now be "mapped" to create patterns and textures that appear to be moving video. Versatubes and similar LED products have blurred the line between a lighting instrument and a video display. "We are now using traditional daytime video display tiles to illuminate event spaces, ultimately giving the client both super-saturated lighting washes and stunning visual effects, with one piece of gear," said company president David Smith. ShowPro recently used this equipment at the MTV Movie Awards, where LED strip lights and Versatubes were used to both light the event and appear as actual scenery.
