We now have the lovely pre-show Director demanded pep talk of basic rules of tech, and a few pre-show things that come across com: "And remember guys; don't be a Bevan!!" (Bevan was a freshman last year that got sent out by a client with a mic that nobody needed wearing a bright red shirt. He...

So, re-elections came up for Tech Coordinator (our version of TD I suppose) and my partner dropped out a week before the voting. So, result day comes and I won (which I'm quite excited about) but my partner is this new kid who doesn't know a thing. Any advice on teaching in an extremely...

I think I kind of cursed myself when I posted earlier about having relatively few injuries. Lately we've all gotten hurt a lot. Worst was ripping my finger open on a staple sticking out of a board. Stitches ftw! And Transformers band-aids.

We don't usually have any bad injuries, but if it were necessary I'm certified in CPR and since I'm an athletic trainer for the softball team I'm also good with taping up sprains and all that jazz. Other than that we rely on bandaids or gauze and tape.

So...we figured out how to turn them on. The answer was really basic. We felt dumb. Because apparently the bulbs burned out before the first day that the school was opened, which is why Smith had never seen them on before. So we just replaced a bulb and it turned on because the works were...

Ok I'll try it on Monday. Thanks.

I didn't know we could...Smith told us that we couldn't do that so I thought it wasn't possible. But I could? I could put twenty-ish on just the one board?

You misunderstood. My personal laptop has a demo version on it, but we have the full thing on the board upstairs. We have Emphasis, there are two monitors yes. I don't know for sure what version of WYSIWYG it is, I know the theatre was built in 2005 and it was probably that year that...

Okay, this is probably going to sound like a really dumb question, but, I've been working with a demo version of WYSIWYG on my laptop and now that I'm trying to use it on the board we have upstairs (ETC Express 48/96) and I can't even get into CAD mode. Nobody else here has ever used it...

ETC Express is the 48/96. We have four dimmer racks...? (Is that what you asked?) Unified control? How?

We aren't renting, I wish we could though. I think we have the SmartFade...we've only ever run two off of it.

What's ML? And no. There's one SmartFade, and two different boards. Yes there are conventional fixtures as well. Thanks everyone for helping me find a starting point. I just kind of got thrown into this and I have no idea what I'm doing. And rochem, those are the only consoles we...

I didn't mean help me design it...I meant does it make sense to use that many intells?

Yeah. I'm told that two of them are for the new black box. They say A. What does that mean? Yes, I know I should call ETC. I will get around to it, probably this afternoon, but...it sounds like I'm kind of screwed because Smith isn't going to let me have them come or anthing. :/

um...huh?
