Martin MAC III Performance™ for China’s “The Sing Off”

Singing a cappella, that is, without instrumentalaccompaniment, is very demanding and requires highly refined vocal intonation. Martin’s flagship MAC III Profile and MAC III Performance luminaireswere specially selected for their accurate color mixing and delicate colortones as an ideal match for the strong sense of melody and rhythm of the acappella style.

The MAC III series lights were also the main dynamic lighting instruments used on the U.S. version of the show and to this end organizers invited the original stage designers and lighting designers to China for guidance.

Some 18 MAC III Performances play an important role on the set. The fixture’s framing system with full crossover of each blade and continuous rotation bring infinite possibilities for projection, framing and effects, while adding pattern and color to the set.

Various patterns and color from upstage and below stage MAC III Profiles provide backlight projection while 18 MAC 600 moving heads work closely with the MAC III series to add color to the various a cappella performances.
