Mirror effect at SAGA Festival
Bucharest, Romania
October 2021
The Saga music festival is all about bringing boundless creativity and imagination to life. But the real party starter was an XL mirror effect icosahedron. GiantMirror at its best.
The enormous kaleidoscope near the entrance goes without saying: you can create the craziest effects with GiantMirror and lights. No less than 19 large mirror triangles formed the so-called icosahedron installation, custom developed by Alda, MFX Engineering and ShowTex. The gigantic reflective structure is the visual symbol of the festival and a true party starter during the shows. By mounting colourful light tubes inside and around the 3D structure, the festival set turned into a real feast (for the eyes). What a way to get the party started!
Lightweight mirror for events
GiantMirror is perfect for an outdoor event like this when set-up and dismantling times are limited. The lightweight mirror is easy to handle, even on a large scale. Perfect for temporary installations where the use of glass is unsafe or impractical.
Did you know GiantMirror comes in 3 colours? Each with very specific reflection and transparency features: a full mirror for realistic reflections, a crystal clear version for stunning holograms and the silver see-through one used at SAGA, for when the mirror transparency is just as important as its reflective quality.
On the lookout for materials to set the tone at your festival or gig? Try experimenting with GiantMirror.
