Tante Mia Tanzt – Electro Festivalrelies on Cameo OTOS H5

The “Tante Mia Tanzt” open‐air festival is the largest electro event of its kind in north‐western Germany, this year attracting around 20,000 visitors to the Stoppelmarkt grounds in Vechta, Lower Saxony. Eventures GmbH was responsible for the event technical equipment at the open‐air festival. Lighting designer Milan Spira relied entirely on moving lights from Cameo for the electro spectacle, including the new Cameo OTOS H5 Hybrid Beam Spot Wash.

In order to enhance the special flair of an EDM festival and to digitise the overall image, Spira and VJ/visual artist Paris Yilmaz from Clubkind Visuals largely dispensed with physical set and deco elements. To

fill the “gaps” in the set design that this inevitably created, Spira specified a large number of beam lights in advance. After a shootout with dry hire provider NicLen, the lighting designer decided on the new Cameo OTOS H5, among others, and thus gave the IP65‐ capable beam spot wash hybrid moving heads their festival premiere in Germany.

“I’m a fan of hybrid fixtures, and the OTOS H5s are a perfect fit for this festival,” explains Spira. “It allows me to cover all lamp types and use a larger number of the same fixtures, which makes it easier for me to operate – especially at a festival with many diﬀerent acts and requirements.” In addition to the high light output, Spira is also impressed by the gobo set and colour quality of the OTOS H5. The lighting designer had already had good experiences with the Cameo OPUS H5 Beam Spot Wash Hybrid Indoor Moving Head in the past.
