Rehearsal Shows


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)
One of the recent Vegas articles quoted AEG entertainment saying they were already up to $10 million spent on visual effects. There is obvioulsy a lot going to be revelaed on Opening Night as video screens with her past clips doesn't cost ten million bucks. lol.

 

That's the only thing we know about the visual effects... hopefully we'll know more after the premiere!

I would've thought the whole point of rehearsal shows was to test out any special effects to ensure nothing goes wrong on opening night?

They probably already tested them months ago!

But for the rehearsals they reached out to the general public, not Celines fans... so wouldnt make sense to have some great effects so they tell everyone to go see this show?

I certianly hope that there will be visual effects... does anyone know about this?

 

"Moment Factory a créé des vidéos pour le grand écran en fond de scène, des projections pour les dizaines d’écrans placés de chaque côté de la scène et une projection spéciale pour un écran d’eau."

Translation : Moment Factory has created videos for the big screen in the background, projections for the dozens of screens placed on either side of the stage and a projection for a special water screen

Now that's starting to sound interesting, if that's true! :w00t:

 

Thanks Thomas for the pics, overall i like those outfits :wub: :in_love:

 

EDIT: My eyes are not focusing on her for once, but the spectacular and amazing lighting on the stage :w00t: :w00t: have you seen?

 

Yeah the lighting is amazing!!! It looks soo bright, and fresh!!!Really different then AND!!

 

 

René said they decided not to bring the "Taking Chances" show to Vegas afterall. If they did, they would have saved 20 million dollars he said but they wanted to do a brand new show for the people. In many article from Canoe and Cyberpresse Y. Aucoin said this show was very much Céline's ideas and what she wanted to sing... much more about the music and the voice. More demanding vocally than physically. They had great creative meetings together.

 

Céline is giving her all when on stage as an artist, as a mom and a wife at home. She gives it all but her children still have a mom and René a wife. She's very satisfied with that. She still has a lot of energy as she always had all her life. She didn't think it would have been possible for her to be in topshape when she gave birth four month ago but she's feeling great right now eventhough she's losing this weight too fast cuz of rehearsal and stress and everything else. They must already fix her dresses so they still fit very nice and well.

 

At least there a not 200 shows a year, so vocally she can do it, but i hope we get an amazing live cd of this show :D

It's nice to hear that it's really Celine's show :D

The best example I can think of is used at Disney theme parks.

Thanks guys, but what is it exactly? a screen that makes the pictures from water? or like a 3D type thing?
Posted
Those waterscreens are beauitful! I'm sure we can expect something amazing from Celine and René!
Posted (edited)

no i think the water is used a big screen and on the reflection of the water images are projected using some kind of device, or sort of beamer

taken from laservision.com : 22.How does a Water Screen work?

There are a number of variations, water curtains that cascade and rows of individual fountain jets, the most effective for focused media like film, slide or video is the Water Screen a single high velocity ‘peacock tail shaped’ spray up to 30M in diameter. Ideal for laser show and video projection.

A Star Shines Brightly

 

The beloved headliner returns to dominate the stage at Caesars Palace

By Emma Trotter

 

 

She’s a world renowned singing sensation, a vocal powerhouse that claims the title of best selling female recording artist of all time. A former Las Vegas headliner, she’s had a little break, but now Queen Celine is ready to go all out yet again.

 

On February 16, her first official day back in Vegas, Dion was greeted with a sensational welcoming parade that included hundreds of fans, cameras and executives ready to welcome back the ultimate vision of a modern day Vegas entertainer. Dion has been missed since she ended her five year headlining theatrical show, A New Day…, at The Colosseum in December 2007. A New Day… was a wildly sucessful, unprecedented tourism draw in Las Vegas, equaling years worth of consecutive sold out shows and $400 million in revenue. Some even say Dion’s show changed the game in Vegas, exemplifying how much of a draw a well-executed show with the right star could bring in to the city. Of course, residents deals with Cher, Bette Midler and Elton John all followed, each its own astronomical level of success for Caesars Palace. But now that those three have all finished out their contracts, Dion is the solo star of this new chapter.

 

During her Her 2008-2009 Taking Chances tour went worldwide and was filmed for documentary released in theaters last year. In October she gave birth to twins. But the supermom—or superstar—isn’t slowing down. The much-anticipated three-year engagement of Celine at The Colosseum begins March 15, and tickets have been selling out since they were available. (Celine will have sold more than $10 million in tickets before opening night.) This is not surprising, since Dion is also universally loved and adored, her warmth radiating every time she performs.

 

But Dion has hada long love affair with Las Vegas. Though the French Canadian singer has bankable appeal worldwide and has circled the globe numerous times on tour, she always finds her way back to Vegas. (Her stunning residence on Lake Las Vegas may have something to do with it.) In 2000, Vegas was the scene where she renewed her wedding vows to husband Rene Angelil, and in 2004, one year after A New Day… premiered, she was chosen as Nevada Ballet Theatre’s Woman of the Year. In 2007, she snuck into town and holed up at Studio at the Palms, where she recorded songs off of her Taking Chances album.

 

She’s set to wow the crowd again. Celine combines the diva’s spectacular five octave vocal range, a 31 piece orchestra and band for a show that blends theatre and concert into one showstopping spectacular. (Not to mention the talent of with Grammy Awards producer Ken Ehrlich.) Expect a show influenced by classic Hollywood hits as well as Dion’s own memorable, award-winning songs guaranteed to give you chills. From Las Vegas, around the world and back again, all the world’s a stage for Dion.

Thank you so much Thomas, for the pictures. She looks stunning, in all the gowns. I can't wait, to see this show. Three months en counting. Yeah, I see the topic is back on track.WOOT.

Simply wow!!!! This show is a complete antithesis to the bombast of modern pop concerts.

 

Vintage is in and I love the fact that Celine is going back to basics by performing in a classic way.

It's as brave and bold a move that A New Day was 8 years ago.

 

I sincerely hope the risk pays off.... But still anyone know the story

Of Rene mortgaging his house to fund her first album...

 

If anyone knows how and when to take risks it's these two.

 

Best of luck Celine..... I can't wait to come and see you next year!! ;-)

Here is an amazing waterscreen used in a concert of Mylene Farmer!!! Truly AMAZING!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjLbgri5j8Q

 

If Céline is returning with that water screen Myléne Farmer used in that tour, she will blow everyone away in the audience. It's just amazing :clap:
