Pyromusical 2020

With nearly all UK firework displays cancelled in 2020, our little village school got special permission from the local council to fire our annual display for an after-school childcare group. The display, attended by around one hundred children is believed to be the largest and possibly the only pyromusical fired in the whole of the UK on November 5th 2020, having entered a second national lockdown on the 4th November.

been touring 25 years doing pyro allover the world. this one makes me proud being a pyrotechnician. it's like coming home... it isn't perfect, but it is! I feel every nail, all the lifting and angle to positions, every wire, all the hard work putting a show like this together. and what's most important... *the crew* with all that afford, blood, sweat, tears and the pure energy to make it happen at all costs! love it big fckng RESPECT !!! to all of you! gonna watch it again right now...

RIP Freddie! Fantastic show.

Beautiful sharing 🎉❤

Really nice show!!!

[@jeremy7923]

love it! fantastic job.

[@p1nkwafflez]

I always put on a show myself every year in the garden for my family. and every year i just wonder if i could ever do a show like this. I love planning, looking for the best effects and piecing together different ideas. I just wish i had that little extra knowledge and guidance to put on something like this for everyone to see. Putting fireworks to music is what makes it even better. Love this show! be sure to post more up if you ever do them again.

WOW WOW WOW Simply stunning !

[@TXPyro]

I put on a pretty complex show each year and I can tell this VERY well done. Timing on point, good product selection. Really good stuff! 👏

[@joeysipos]

Wow, I wish to someday create a show like that. That was incredible!

[@nicholaswaite7795]

I’m a pyrotechnic but I never done muscle be for this is so cool I would be going crazy if I seen that great show

[@sandoril6936]

WOW what a setup, great work!

[@Adam-uj3bu]

This was awesome - I really like the fan hit at 2:39 or at 5:40. Music choice was good - my only friendly criticism would be to lower the volume of the music a tad so we can hear some of the fireworks. But that's it - it was great - Congrats!

[@kamurobrocade]

Thanks! I agree with the sound issue, I had problems with the GoPro not picking up enough of anything! There's a mobile phone version on my channel though where you can hear the fireworks better.

[@inquestxxx]

@@kamurobrocade how many feet was between each position? Just curious how much space you had. Thx.

[@kamurobrocade]

@@inquestxxx I think it was about 5m between them, maybe a bit more as it was at least 30m across the front.

[@TXPyro]

whats the zipper cake going off at 5:42?

Its like pyroforum

[@papyro2086]

WOW!!!!!!. That was amazing

[@SwiftTelly20]

I know this might be a massive ask, but would I be able to use/borrow this [2:48 to 6:02] in a vid of my own please? I love the visuals and the song goes so well. I'm asking permission first before I do anything. Thank you.

[@kamurobrocade]

Sure. Just add a link back to this video.

[@SwiftTelly20]

@@kamurobrocade Fantastic, thank you! :-D

[@ignite9550]

"The show must go on" quite fitting for this year. I really enjoyed this. Excellent Excellent Job! Your home-made freedom sticks are impressive, too. They look much taller and with more LEDs than the Chauvet sticks and as you point out - cheaper. What do you think it would take to add DMX control to them?

[@kamurobrocade]

Thanks! There are DMX to WS2812B controllers on the market, the problem being you'd need to have either one controller per stick or somehow daisy chain them with 4-core wire. As they are about 5-6m apart in the field the current drop on that would mean you'd then have to supply a lot more current. What is good about them at the moment is that they are completely independent of wired control or power. I'd like to control them with DMX though as the Cobra firing modules will soon have DMX functionality so if I do end up adding this to the lights, I'll do a video showing how!

[@ignite9550]

Thanks for the details and I see the benefit of your current arrangement. The effect is very nice. I have cobra and fireTEK, but almost solely use fireTEK for it's integrated DMX for other devices I have. I think Cobra users will appreciate DMX once it comes out. I really liked the effect of the lights you created and I think they look taller and more impressive than the "freedom sticks" Not sure what to do personally now. - LOL

[@kamurobrocade]

@@ignite9550 I've looked at FireTek - looks great but as I've got quite a big Cobra setup I thought I'd wait for them to integrate DMX. As soon as they do I want to get creative with other lights and eventually flames. I'm sure if it is released soon I'll be playing with these lights to integrate them into the Cobra setup later in the summer.

[@ignite9550]

I found some 17USD converters on ebay. I might have to do some more digging. I picked up some RGB strips and a DMX RGB decoder last year to play around with but it is not addressable RGB. Your video has me re-thinking what I was doing. I'm sure you'll eventually have fun adding flames. Thanks!

[@PyroAsh.]

Amazing bud. Been to a lot of pro shows not half as good as this!

[@kamurobrocade]

Thanks, that means a lot coming from you mate. 👍

[@toysareforboys1]

@@kamurobrocade Same man. Can't believe this show was put together with retail fireworks! Nuts. Killer show man. One day I'll put on one of these. I'm building some flame controllers that can shoot a 100ft tall flame, should be spicy :)

[@davidm3788]

are you using Chauvet led freedom sticks as the upright lighting effect :)

[@kamurobrocade]

No- they are homemade versions. See one of my previous videos. Just LED strips, a WiFi controller and a USB powerbank. Work the same as the Freedom Sticks, just 1/4 the cost.

[@corymeyer9394]

Amazing show. What firing system do you use?

[@kamurobrocade]

Thanks. All Cobra. This show used 7x 18m modules and 6x 6S mini slats for the fronts.

[@erzbengelhh7677]

die Kamera müsste weiter weg sein. Die höheren Efekte kommen nicht richtig zur Wirkung und verfälschen das Gesamtbild. In diesem Video gehts noch, in anderen ist es schlimmer. Ansonsten weiter so.

[@curtpyro1518]

That's a lot of Sky puke lol

[@kamurobrocade]

I had a lot of donated product to get rid of! I don't usually like sky puke but I thought with 2020 being a disaster and this being one of the only pyromusicals in the country on Nov 5th, I'd go out all guns blazing.
