I have no idea what the breadth of your class topics are, and I personally don't know of any technical production or set construction videos. But if Lighting or Stage Management is also a subject you or anyone else is looking for, there are a few great resources I know of...

That's so cool! It's a fantastic space. I'm going into Lighting Design as of now, so hopefully I'll be able to work with that system or something similar! I'm so excited to get to do more stuff related to my major next year.

I made a recent video that gives the viewer a rough overview of duties for a Freshman year Production Assistant at BU School of Theater. Just in case folks are looking into Theater Tech college, here it is!

Agreed, finding a place where you are comfortable and safe and can get a jumping-off point for potential careers is priority. I also applied to different places for theater tech and/or film just a year ago. When I was applying, I found that a lot of programs had interviews, either as...

I can only speak from my own experience, but when I was in high school I was able to do minimum wage tech work with my High School AV department(although I started by interning with them for awhile), maybe you will have a local/school department that does something similar? Perhaps start by...

I've started a very exciting Theater Design and Production major with a production work-study on the side at my University, and I need to wear my new hard hat for scenery/lighting/sound load-ins and other construction hours.What can I put on a hard hat to personalize it and identify it as mine...

Gottcha. I thought not. I think I misread TimmyP's comment above as uploading to the 'computer' housed within the board.Thanks for all the suggestions! It is now our show week and we have a setup with a XLR cable that runs from the board into the house and then goes through a converter to an...

Can I upload sound effect cues to a Berhinger X32? That would be very cool, I just assumed the cues only changed fader levels.

Very cool! A setup like that may be an interesting investment later on. Our sound board is not in the house but in our booth, and we operate sound remotely on Ipads from the house since it is easier to hear/mix than in our enclosed booth. The hope is that our sound cues can be operated right...

I thought as much, thanks for the tips! We will figure something out, probably a wired situation.The laptop needs to be in the house preferably because we A) have a smaller booth space and B) would like to have both sound operators near each other so both can mix/run sound cues without running...

I'm tech directing a production at my high school where we are playing sound cues on Multiplay into our sound board, a Berhinger X-32.We are trying to make our setup so that the computer with the effect cues can be in the house with the rest of the remote sound operation(on IPads). One option...

It does indeed! I generally use Soundbible. http://soundbible.com/Also the Youtube Audio Library. (Go to Youtube Studio > More Features > Audio Library)

I want to extend my gratitude for all of the information in this thread, it was helpful in my search for a good system. Multiplay has become a good solution for me as a free and easy-to use software that still has all the bells and whistles needed to make a sound cue setup. It is slightly less...

Gottcha, I at first assumed it was just a matter of playing a track(as in a music track). Now I understand. Thanks!

Not sure if this is helpful, (I could have completely misunderstood the question) but we work with an X32 at my HS, and to play a track we always just hook it up to a computer or phone with an Aux cord that goes to on of the Aux inputs. That's the simplest way I can think of to sound check a...
