REGULAR WELL DESIGNED FIREWORK SHOW

REGULAR ELECTRONICALLY FIRED DISPLAYS

Fireworks, at their very core, are designed to evoke emotions from those who are watching them. While the canvas rarely changes, the artist and their brushes can paint very different pictures depending on the limitations put on them. There are plenty of options available that bridge the gaps between these types of shows as well. We would love to talk to you further about your specific needs and see which option works best for you!

For clients who are still budget conscious but prefer a more organized feel, a “Regular, E-Fired” show may be the route to go.

This allows operators and technicians to prepare each firework device with its own electronic match and be able to control it with split second timing. These types of shows are slightly more labor intensive on the preparation side of things, but it removes personnel from the display site while the show is firing.

It also allows the operator to have much better control over what is happening both in the sky and on the ground. The show designer can create sequences, paint scenes using certain effects and colors, plus control pacing and show length with greater ease. Each year more and more companies, as well as clients, are choosing this option; primarily due to the many benefits it provides at a minimal cost increase.

DESIGNING A SPECTACULAR SHOW FOR 3 MINUTES USING ELECTRONIC FIRING SYSTEM

To be able to design a nice show, not musical but well designed and organized without gaps, and by creating a beautiful wide bouquets in the sky, you should follow the below notes regarding the use of product categories, quantities, time coding, and the assortment.

Fireworks explode in specific shapes by arranging pyrotechnic stars within an aerial shell to form patterns. When the shell explodes in the sky, it then expands outward.

The stars’ chemical compositions determine the color of the fireworks, with specific compounds creating different colors. Additionally, the arrangement of these stars affects the shape of the explosion.
The development of fireworks shapes, from simple bursts to complex patterns like hearts and smiley faces, involves chemical and artistic design. Pyrotechnicians must carefully plan to successfully execute a specific design

REUSABLE MORTAR TUBE MATERIALS


Reusable mortar tubes can be made of two materials: fiberglass or high-density polyethylene (HDPE). Fiberglass tubes are lighter weight, but they will shred under the pressure of launch. It is absolutely critical to handle fiberglass tubes only with gloves and long sleeves to avoid getting painful cuts and scratches from the fibers.

HDPE tubes are extremely popular. Though it weighs more than fiberglass, HDPE is a type of plastic that is ideally suited for mortar tubes. It is dense and sturdy enough to last a long time, but its tensile strength and intermolecular forces give it the flexibility to bend and distort rather than shatter or shed under the extreme pressure of fireworks launches.

FOR DESIGNING A SHOW…

  • Use high attitude products like shells from 3inch to 6inch based on location and safety standards
  • Use low attitude products like Roman Candles, Cakes and Single Rows in order to fill the façade in two levels from ground to sky creating an attractive consecutive bouquets.
  • Take into consideration the duration of each product to avoid delays and empty sky
  • Well display the mortars specially for 3 – 4 – 5 inches with angles as V shape in order to get a wide façade, and the patterns in sky not to be mixed.
  • Make sure if the duration of the show is 3 minutes for example, do design and use special products and shoot intensively the last 10 to 15 seconds, as we call it the last impression : FINALE.

3 MAIN PRODUCT CATEGORIES NEEDED TO DESIGN A SHOW

ROCKETS OR DISPLAY SHELLS:

A firework that is launched into the air and explodes into different patterns and colors. As per local regulations and safety considerations in GCC and most of countries, it is now prohibited to import shells caliber above 6inch. Based on safety guidelines and local laws to propose the kind and caliber of shells to be used. And based on the show will be designed.

CAKES, BLOCKS OR CALLED BARRAGES:

A "multi-shot aerials", the cake is an item that has a single fuse which is used to light several tubes in sequence. Cakes can have a variety of intricate aerial effects, including spinners, fish, flower bouquets, comets, crossettes, and other elements.

  • W-shape (or) F-Shape – These cakes have angled tubes. One shot consists of an entire row of tubes so that you fill your sky completely with each shot. “F” stands for “Fan”.
  • Z-Shape– These cakes also have angled tubes, however they shoot only one at a time. The fire chain is “snaked” along the cake to give a tracer effect back and forth.
  • X-shape– It is the same concept as the Z-shape, however, instead of only firing from one side of the cake, it starts at two opposite ends firing back and forth at a much higher rate.

ROMAN CANDLES:

A firework that shoots out sparks and colors vertically into the air. Most roman candles have five to eight balls. Most of used Roman Candles are kind of effects, like tales gold, silver, and many colors and effects. The height varies with reference to the ball size, from 0.75inch to 1.5inch.
