Matt goes on to explain that he will utilize different sizes of effects that range from 60 Ft to 300 Ft. The layering helps create a dense and intense show along with a more artistic display. “We are using new custom effect Fan Racks built to my specifications that will add more outward firings to make things wider than ever before. We are also utilizing 160 degree fan racks to create a more spherical display in conjunction with the motion or chasing effects.
Festivities will begin with pyrotechnic effects for the Ball Raising at 6:00 PM and of course the most-anticipated show in the world begins at Midnight. It takes 5 Days preparation on Site to setup the display and 2 Days to set the entire products used for the pyrotechnics.
