The RHYTHM Pyro Podcast

#8 Organization

Turns out "organization" is a VERY broad topic as it pertains to fireworks shows...One that Bo, AJ, and Jamie will need to touch on in a more sub-compartmentalized and focused depth in future discussions.  In this episode the guys touch on different aspects of displays, sites, and setups and how paying attention to the little things can make a world of difference.

#7 Pyro Show Music Selection (Cliché Tunes?)

Music and fireworks are languages the entire world can understand (whether they understand the lyrical content or not).  The pyromusical is the fusion of those two elements creating a visual and audible experience that creates excitement that's meant to resonate for both the spectator and the designer.
In This episode, the guys unpack the the importance of music selection as it pertains to pyromusicals and the different contextual show settings that determine appropriate music selections.  

#6 Firework Show Length

How long of firework show is "too" long?  There's a lot of different variables that can change the answer to that question.  What's your shows format?  What's your budget?  How large is your site?  Are you a hobbyist shooter or a commercial shooter?   Bo, AJ, and Jamie talk through a lot of these variables and try to make sense of the perfect show length.

#5 Pyromusical Product Prep

Pyromusicals are only as good as the product that makes it up.  In this episode; Bo, AJ, and Jamie focus in on prepping pyro product in the phases leading up to their shows and dive head first into their workflows to comparing, contrasting, and insulting one another every chance they get...❤

#4 Firing System Configurations (How do I know what to buy?)

The "PLZ Help, there's so many firing system gear configurations, which ones should I buy?" question seems simple to answer on the surface (and IS often answered...by a LOT of the community, all at once...and some times to a point where the original poster winds up leaving more confused than before they asked.)
In this episode; Bo, AJ, and Jamie dive into how get a better understanding of YOUR need and avoid "information overload" to make the right firing system configuration decisions.  

#3 Pyromusical Prefire Times

Pyromusicals are all about the timing of the effects.  If these aren't right, the visual effects don't live in the same world as the music it shares the moment with.  Bo, AJ, and Jamie talk primary product category prefire times (cakes, shells, and single shots) and rap on best practices for getting to know your product PFTs.

#2 Pyromusical Workflow

The 10,000ft view of how Bo, AJ, and Jamie approach their Pyromusicals and their workflows from concept all the way through to show day.    

#1 Cringtros (Introductions That Suck)

Every solid relationship starts with a good introduction.  So naturally these three idiots completely beef it.  AJ thinks Bo's Voldemort...and "we do not speak his name".  Bo completely forgets to introduce himself, Jamie steals the show with a best-in-class performance, and all three completely forget to highlight ANY of their REAL pyro accomplishments to date.  Par for the course.
