My fiance and I are considering moving to France next fall, but I'm curious about the work in France. How is the scene there? Is there a Union? How are venue gigs? How radically different is French tech than American tech? Is it easy to freelance? How tight knit is the scene? Anything else...

Thanks guys, got the macro working and have the show running as planned. You guys rock.

We created a master link and loaded it onto a master, but I suppose my question -now- is getting the first step in the sequence to play automatically, without having to press any additional buttons other than "Go".

So I have a couple of questions. I got the opportunity to do a couple of shows in my high school, and it was the only thing that I have ever resonated with. It was fun, I felt like I was at home, and I took very well to the kind of work we were doing. I decided that this is what I want to do...

My worst injury without a doubt is when a ten foot tall wall frame that wasn't bolted down to a flat yet fell on me. I just got a little winded, no major injuries but a couple of bruises.

Howdy. I live in a suburb of Portland, called Beaverton. I got into theatre at the beginning of my senior year, doing a combination of lighting, sound and construction for 5 different shows in the one year I've been in theatre and i loved every second of it. I've been reading this forum on and...
