So here's a situation I never wanted to face.
I know that we have discussed movers + ETC Express many times, but hopefully this question is a little different.
I'm possibly designing for The Wedding Singer at a Community Theatre next spring. The director has told me that he wants to use 'smart lights' (yeah...).
Knowing their budget and the amount of time I'll have to program the show, the likelihood of having an ML console and the amount of time for me to learn & program it is near zero.
What I'm thinking is, what if I wasn't so picky. How easy would it be to rent some fixtures with built-in effects and just fire a "go ahead and run 'X' pattern" from the Express? Would I be looking more in the DJ arena for fixtures? Is it even possible to do this sort of thing?
