    Intercom Troubleshooting

    That has happened to myself as well with an intercom with two beltpacks. I had used a similar system in the city with no problems which meant that it was something to do with our intercom system. Was like this for a year until I became Lighting Designer for last years musical. (Lighting Designer...

    OK--sometime it just happens....

    Hehe...reminds me of musical...We had a scene where a "boat" was to be driven down the aisle of the audience...(the "boat" was really a wooden body of a boat rigged onto a golf cart). First night it went fine...second night...pretty ok...third night...stalled...at this point the actors had no...

    honestly

    Thats happened for me (although not with projection...moreso with the lighting...and not really an unplugging). Re-recording scenes for musical during a break in rehearsal, leave for five minutes to get a snack before rehearsal starts up again...I tell everyone in the booth to NOT touch the...

    Controlbooth vs SoundTrekkie

    My year 12 formal...me and another tech friend were both sitting our formal table...music starts...we both look at each other and know exactly what the other is thinking..."EQ THE **** SYSTEM"...lol.

    Band Teacher nearly ruined the gels in Color Scrollers

    Yup...(guilty as charged lol)...but remember...we all could still be put under the Techie (Technical) Category. (Sorry if I offend anyone with the word "Techie" here, I know some people don't aprreciate being called a techie...although I think it is OK amongst fellow "techies" lol)

    Computer Messaging in theatre...

    If your planning on sending messages via laptops...search on google for LAN Instant Messenger...saw it a few days ago...no internet connection needed, no need to "add contacts"...seems pretty simple.

    Technician vs Techie

    I couldnt really care if someone called me a techie, as long as it wasnt in a demeaning way...other than that, I don't see a problem...and also, as noted before (I think), it depends on where it is said. If you are meeting businesses, its obviously better to use technician than techie, but if...

    silent and with a purpose

    Remember you "argue and fight" as much as the rest of us :P ...I'd say me and you are the two most responsible ones on the crew.

    Last Minute Lighting Disaster

    In reply to PhantomDs post. Yeah, I know I wrote that quote (:) ), but I was given that info from a friend whos been in lighting for a while, so I thought it would be worth noting. Also, that may be the contributing factor to why it cut out, why else do they ban use of cell phones in...

    Digital Recording Devices...

    Yep, exactly what PhantomD said, it is one awesome piece of equipment. I was with him when we did the gig at City Hall. The only problem with it is you need to know a bit on how to work it in order to use it. But if you give them a basic runthrough, it should be fine. But it can be used in...

    Headphones (cans?!)

    Oh well, that was the reasoning i got for it. People just probably call headphones "cans" because it is easier and faster to say that instead of headphones or earphones.

    I'm glad it wasn't my fault!!!

    Wasnt that you? I thought it was...oh well...I know I didn't do it because I was at the Spot... :)

    The Phantom strikes again

    I think that is at ANY performance. If you say "Macbeth", something horrible always goes wrong. Unfortunately, someone at my theater decided to test that... the outcome was funny from my point of view as I hadnt caused it :D (PS it was just an actor/prop problem (an actor was supposed to run...
