Does anyone know where I can get a copy of the opening animation during "Speak to Me"? I should add that I am happy to pay for it as long as the money goes to the band.
As a side note, I am a professional fireworks choreographer. Therefore, I have a unique perspective on how much work goes into designing a light show. It has been a long time since I have been impressed by concert lighting. But wow, I am just blown away by the variation, innovation, and precision of the light show put on by Aussie Floyd. I dont think most concert-goers realize the expertise and diligence required to produce a show of that caliber.
Good question and welcome to the site. I'm sure you are impressed by the PULSE DVD, the animations and lighting are amazing, and also the latest from David Gilmour, "Remember That Night". Mark Brickmans lighting design is stunning once again. No wonder David chose him.

PB, man they should have a category for you like "Grumpy Old Sod"; only in your case it would be "Knower of all Things". You truly are an amazing resource of facts. Well done!
As an amateur choreographer of fireworks (at least when I visit my brother-in-law in southern Indiana ), welcome to the forum Danny skylighter!

The pulse video idea was right on. I found an animation I can use.
I am putting together a "fun" 6 minute fireworks display. I am going to open it with the heartbeat/Speak to me as animation only. Then go into time with fireworks and animation and finish off with Eclipse as a fireworks only finale.
If anyone cares, you can get an idea of what I am doing from a show I did a few years ago to a "Haunted Mansion" theme. For that show, we used a static 9' tall faux mansion. But it was so small and so far away, it looked minature as you will see. But i think I can project onto a 20' screen that is closer to the audience.
