Gobos

Gobos enhance design by creating great visuals on walls, floors, backdrops and other scenic elements. They can even be used in place of scenery. The appearance of the image can be affected and/or enhanced through the use of color filters and the angle and focus of the light being used, allowing for additional design flexibility.

Standard Patterns are available for the following Product Lines (Click to view all patterns for each):

Custom One Color Gobos:
Custom designs made from original artwork are available. One Color gobos have one dichroic plate and are etched to clear. On some original artwork one color gobos must be put on a black plate to avoid a surrounding circle of light. Therefore, we must charge for a two-color pattern, even though you don't "see" the black. Contact an Apollo representative for more details. Artwork submission guidelines are available in Support.

Steel Gobos

Apollo metal gobos are made from an 8 mil stainless steel with a high quantity of nickel and chromium that provide longer life and image quality. The result is durable patterns able to withstand high heat generated from both ellipsoidal and intelligent lights. The majority of alternative products on the market are made from a 5 mil stainless steel comprised of a large amount of carbon steel that begins to oxidize (rust) and breakdown in a shorter period of time. If a magnet sticks to the pattern, it is mainly carbon steel - which means it is not an Apollo.
