Welcome, and thank you for visiting my site

Here you can find the latest info about Show Control

Hello, my name is Michael Cremers and I am the owner of Show Control. I started this company 14 years ago working as an freelance operator with moving light systems. The first jobs were on an MA Scancommander and soon after that on a Compulite Animator. I was one of the first Wholehog II operators in the Netherlands and I still prefer the Wholehog system to work with now. If its the Hog II or III / IPC / RoadHog / Fullboar, I am used working with all of them. I have a HOG II myself. I am specialised in business events all over Europe but I also enjoy concerts, TV show`s and theatre. Most of the time a business event contains all the above "styles" in one production. From operating and light directing I have grown into lightdesign and even sometimes the whole set and stage design. As you might know I LOVE Vari*Lite`s as they are still the best a designer can use. Nothing really compares to these fixtures like the VL5 and VL6 or the 1000 / 2000 and 3000 systems. The VL5 is and stayes my favorite moving light of all times ! Even the old VL2c and VL4`s are still superb fixtures. I also love to work with the VariLED 3/84 from JB Lighting (G) The first real LED-washlight !

Its my passion to paint with light, creating atmospheres in all their various wonderful ways...
