Hello all!
I am newly registered to the forum although I have been reading info here for a while now, and finally decided to plunge in and register.
I am a professional Bubble Artist, which means I perform a show with Soap Bubbles: Giant bubbles, smoke bubbles, fire bubbles, etc..
I have seen (and talked to) a couple of other bubbles artists who use laser pointers in their shows, and exploring doing the same, though want to be sure it will be done in a safe way. I was recommended a minimum of 500mw green and/or minimum of 1w blue or red to be visually effective on stage while stage lights are low (I don't want total blackout on stage), creating effects while pointing lasers at smoke/fog bubbles and or small bubble suds/foam (which breaks a beam into many beams) , some of it on stage level and some above stage (as the bubbles float up when filled with Helium). this will only be done for s short section in a show (i.e. up to 1 minute) , but I wonder if it's safe to do so, and how to keep it safe on stage for audience and performers, what to look out for, and where is best place to buy (looking to get green, blue and red of similar units) Any advice will be welcomed. I know a lot about bubbles, but little about lasers at this point, though I have owned 5mw lasers for 20 years. Many thanks!
