Kiss Stage Comes Alive!

Kiss Stage Comes Alive! Video Clips. Duration : 2.92 Mins.


Check out how this was made at www.kissfancentral.com This is called a Kinetically Integrated Screen Surround stage. The scale is approximately 1:12. It is one fan's vision/interpretation of a KISS concert stage, utilizing various McFarlane KISS Series action figures and the many KISS concerts this fan has attended and seen on video. All of the components of the stage are hand made except for a television, the action figures, the guitars, the drum kit, microphone stands, the speakers/amps, the coiled snake pole, the sirens, some lights and lighting scafolding. The frame was hand made using lumber. The stage measures about 6' 10" H x 4' W x 3' D and has hidden shelving for a DVD/VCR player, underfloor lights (that shine through the gratings on the stage front), and battery containers for the McFarlane scafolding lights. There is stop motion used (the drummer and the group bowing). Gene and Paul both take flight by means of moving contraptions. The drum riser levitates (and drops a black cloth with gold cats), moves forward, and rotates. There are two hydraulic lifts on either side of the stage that levitate. Computerized effects such as fireworks, sparklers, and fire are used to enhance the "concert feel" of the experience. Paul flies to his own solo stage. Ace boards his "rocket ride". Concert shots from the "Sonic Boom" tour (taken in November 2009) are previewed at the beginning of the video. Check out www.kissfancentral.com to see photos of the KISS as it was being ...
