Go all out with a Multi Color Glass Gobo that will add dramatic intensity to any look.
Rosco custom glass gobos can be made to fit any stationary or moving lights. They offer the advantages of very sharp fidelity in both photographic and drawn images and, of course, brilliant projected color.
A multiple color, or full color gobo, is 2 colors or more, black, clear, and any grayscale within the image.
Color Glass gobos by Rosco have tremendous heat resistance due to the dichroic layers used in the manufacturing process. These gobos can withstand heat in luminaries up to 2000 watts or more and do not degrade under the heat. Used properly, a Rosco Glass gobo can be expected to last for years with no apparent wear. We’ve manufactured literally thousands of OEM color glass gobos which have had many years’ use in the field.
- Rosco's manufactured hi-resolution multi color glass gobos are 1.9mm thickness. This is particularly important because of the optics capability in today's highly advanced light fixtures. The substrates used allow a better focal plane. Such gobos will also fit the gobo slot of most instruments far more effectively, allowing for maximum usage of the light fixtures' projection capabilities. Using Rosco’s own dichroic coatings and through our special etch process designed for our coatings, exact art replication for color, resolution, sharpness and quality are key. The allowable image area within the gobo will also always play a part with gobo resolution.
- Custom glass gobo with multiple colors require one day for processing and 3-5 business days for normal production.
