Fast Facts

  • Built in collaboration with Australia-based experience design agency Imagination, the show features a brand new soundtrack composed and remixed by award-winning producer and music arranger Kenn C. Born and raised in Singapore, Kenn is a veteran in the regional pop music scene, having worked with A-list stars such as Stefanie Sun, A-mei and Jacky Cheung. 
  • A production that is two years in the making, the show is a world-first, anchored by a 12-metre high laminated glass prism that forms the “heartbeat” of the show. 
  • The show utilizes a huge selection of water fountain techniques, including pyramids, gyroscopic, archs and straight jets, as well as lava and mist effects.

The Technology

  • Spectra sets itself apart from other light and water shows because of its diverse range of water fountain techniques, and its use of new underwater 500 watt LED fixtures – specially developed for the show – that allow the lights to show perfect whites and richer colours. 

  • The show also uses state-of-the-art technology, including a synchronization software called timecode, so that the soundtrack will be able to trigger, millisecond by millisecond, all of the lasers, lighting, projections and water effects in perfect harmony each time. 

  •  Lighting positions were carefully chosen to give the maximum effect in conjunction with water, laser and projection effects. The lights are positioned on specially created floating pontoons as well as additional projection screen barges located around the bay area. 

  • The lights used are energy efficient, with the main lighting fixture able to produce a light output similar to a 4,000 watt search light, even though it has a small unit output of energy at 470 watts.

  • The glass prism sits atop a polished stainless steel skeleton which is submerged underwater. As it sits submerged, the water can reflect all over the prism’s exterior for an additional effect. Stainless steel is also used for the structure to withstand outdoor weather conditions and for its ability to reflect light. 

  • The prism is able to cast a colour hue onto an object up to 50 metres away. 

  • The show will have an improved high-powered and full-range sound system for playing back both show audio and events. Three primary loudspeakers are positioned on the water fountains in the bay, with side and rear speakers mounted on either side and behind the audience for a more immersive audio experience.
