Despite the fact that there is an endless space for creativity with our existing suits, from time to time, we feel the calling to create a brand new type of Tron costume, just to surprise ourselves and of course our audience as well. Lately, this need was knocking on our door again, so we have decided to create a brand new version of the Tron Girls costume. So what is interesting about our new piece?
Sit back and enjoy our choreography:
First of all, we didn’t aim to create something technologically elaborate, but rather something which looks feminine and sexy at the same time. This new costume is even technologically simpler than our previous costumes, but it gives us a more glamorous and sexy feeling. Compared to the rest of our suits with 16 segments, for this suit, we can control just 3 separate channels – hat, chest, and skirt.
The problem with 16-segment costumes is the cables. It is not possible to make them without a spiral cord, premeasured cables that are connecting the receivers with the LED parts of the costume. They are very practical but if you want to see a sexy costume, cables are not the first thing that hits your eyes. We made a simpler controller that can control 3 separate segments. For the shows to be more interesting, we added programmable UV lights that can be precisely synchronized with music. Everything is available in our LED Strip Studio software.
There are various designs of sexy LED costumes available worldwide but to be honest they are not really smart costumes. Their problem is that they can just simply glow but that’s it. No blinking, no UV, no synchronization… nothing. From our point of view, it’s quite boring, and we wanted much more.
We have tried dozens of options for a good skeleton to fix the LEDs properly, and picked this one, as it is visually interesting and strong enough to be a good base for our LED strips.
During the process of creating, we had an idea to make two versions of costumes. One is suited for a full dark environment and the second one is for a mid-dark environment or twilight. The main difference is the UV and base fabrics. For a dark environment, we have picked full white colors that look amazing under the UV light, which brings this show to a totally new dimension. For the mid-dark environment, it will be classic black color without UV, because you can see the actual dancers more properly. Like this, we can always decide what version to use for the different kinds of events because it’s a common problem for our clients to make a full-dark room so we can use costumes for our shows.
Now, we can use these costumes as walking acts or an attraction for taking interesting pictures with the guests. On the other hand, you can still make a show, where girls appear and disappear during the Tron choreography, so this suit is very versatile.
