gotta advertise my school here. also look at SUNY Purchase. the school has an increadible theatre arts and film conservatory with a BFA in Theatre Design and Technology. the school has an increadbily intensive program (many days my classes go from 8:30am, to 10:00pm, then in my studio till...

When we built a hard wood floor earlier this year for "The Dead", we took sheets of lauan, ripped it down to 6" or 8" (i forget) pieces to resemble floor boards, and laid them on top of Maso in a floor board pattern. looked pretty **** convincing, had a few people ask how we were able to buy...

College: 1000 some source fours of varying degrees number of pars and fresnels of various measurements cyc lights and the whole stuff work: source fours mac 2K, 600, 500, 250, and some other macs. and a lot of other random crap.

SUNY Purchase is pure tradition. its just sad how much there is here. though, almost all of the tradition revolves around getting drunk, throwing parties or just general drinking. Yea.

yea, but we're a group of creative people, if the board is plain and boring, we can personalize it and make it look awsome.

gotta be a dick here. you work in theatre, would you actually use those words? seriously, if you were on my crew, you would have been fired by now. normally i will tryto be nice, but that was just a ass thing to say, do you go around calling whites, blacks, hispanics, asians, women, men...

I wouldnt think that having 1000+ S4's means its a better school. I would say the fact that all of our professors are current broadway designers and they teach us what they learn in broadway and other theatre experiances as what makes it a good school. not to mention every professor and student...

random question, NYgaff, do you still attend Purchase? if so, do you mind posting your last name?

personally, unless it was a majorly important gobo, i would rather buy a donut instead of the tube, considering how expensive it is. just something to think of pricewise.

I know that theres supposed to be a massive launch of a new line this fall...i think at LDI.

ah, ok. for some reason i thought this was for a perminent/semiperminent rig, so then it would make sense to use glass gobos, but for one show, yea, imagepro all the way.

i personally would go with glass gobos instead of the image pro, image pros dont have a great lifetime, and they arnt very bright. console1's ideas are pretty good, though a 750 lamp would kill a gobo. and just wondering, but arnt the sharper image lenses from etc like $400?

while i dont know much about sound, there are some points where i agree mono is better then stereo for the whole audience. then again, why dont we just do it the Cirque Du Soleil way where they had stereo speakers in every single seat in the house for their show KA, plus general stereo sound...

bragging a bit?but always pending on the situation. yea, if im doing a gig that will last only a day or so, and wont have much outside forces, ill do something like that. but if im outside or doing a perm to semi-perm install, you always tighten down as much as possible. would you want to have...

i never use the F**k nut. its way to inacurate. whenever ive tried to focus using that, the light just shakes so much its imposible to do much.
