I got to design for the kids show!!!

I got the lighting design for Aesop's Fables!!! It was simple show to design but a credit is a credit. There was storm and a few major shifts to incorporate. Luckily we had a strobe rented for "Once on this Island" so the storm was a real wow factor for the kids. I'll try and get some pictures up before to long...

Sorry for the late posts!

It's been about 2 weeks since i last posted. I am still getting used to the idea of journal keeping (as well as blogging on top of that).

The week just following my last post was the tech week for Once on this Island. Shawn Boyle the Lighting Designer got into town and we hit the ground running. I was up in the space for up to 14 hours at a time (barring breaks for lunch and dinner). As it goes, we were just doing hang/focus/patch/re-patch/troubleshoot stuff for the most part. The patch bay is a spaghetti factory. We are using 48 dimmers with dual outputs on each module. Our board is an express 250. Most of our instrumentation consists of Source4's and Source4 Pars with a peppering of Altman 6x9's. More to come this evening. I'm off to lunch.
