Using Confetti and
Streamers might be a little
scary if you’ve never had
the opportunity to use them before. Don’t worry, it’s normally very simple.
You'll need to think about a few things:
Proportions of the area you want the effect in:
You’ll need to findout the properties of the area
you want to blanket and your ceiling height.
Style of launchers: The confetti
and streamers can be shot out in a number of
different ways. You can either expel it from the ceiling by hand, use
Confetti blowers to “project”
the confetti to your desired area or use Launchers
to shoot the confetti or streamers. The only one that works well if you’re
launching streamers is the
launchers not
blowers.
Handheld
Launcher versus Electric
Automatic: This largely depends on how many you need and how many streamers
and/or confetti you want to launch. If you are spreading over a small area for example
40 feet wide and deep, you can use 2-4
32” handheld launchers to receive a nice effect. Remember you will need 1
body to launch them at each position they will be launched. They are very
e-Z to use! Once they'reloaded, you pull the string trigger and away
they go!
In a more spacious area, or if you want to truss mount the
launchers or if you can’t use
handheld launchers due to
sight lines or lack of crew, the 110v AC launchers are the way to go. Our
XC-2 Launcher is the same style of
launcher that you see on just about any concert,
large theatrical production pr pro application. The reason, they work
all the time. They are samll-scale They are light (25 lbs loaded) and they use e-Z
to find compressed air.
Briefly, for many Church, School and more modest type
occasions the 32” handheld launcher
will do a terrific job for you. For larger events where you’ll need to handle
more area or need to launch the launchers electrically, the
XC-2 Launcher is the path to go!
