    Curtain call for crew?

    I don't get that, if the pit/band gets acknowledge why doesn't the crew. The crew is just as important as the band, so by saying they have to be acknowledge is like just ridiculus. What makes them more special then the crew who actually makes it possible for the show to go on.

    Video stage monitoring

    one thing you have to check is that the outlets get the input from the rf modulator. Which might be. Also you might want to limit the tv onlys where the actors are going to be so the audience doesn't get distracted. You also might want to hook another microphone to the sound output to the tv so...

    $1000USD Recording Setup

Using that idea you can...

    Charging Non Profit Orgs

    From any event you should charge full-rate. Or at least quote the full price rate. You should sit down with whoever is to negotiate your fee and if you like their cause, then simply tell the guy that you'll be willing to give them a discount (say a reason you want them to know so anyone else...

    building a resume

    i noticed one thing the email address isn't the same as your website. i would look into getting your email address to have the same domain as your website address, that way it easier for employers.

    the thing about the control, they have ir transmitters to extend the range of the ir. also there is ir distrubition devices where they have a ir reciver in one location say right next to the sound boardx, or if you have multiple recivers next to the light board or computer and then it takes that...

So I went onto the radio and asked what song we were suppose to be on, I...

    Film Making

For the storyboard, you use that so you know in a visual sense what you want your shot to look like, some people can get away without one, but to others you'll be need it or during filimg or even editing you'll have...

    Comm system

    My school has a two line telex intercome system. It works fine, the hardline is good for when your actually doing the show and sitting in the booth all ready to go. However during prep/setup wireless system is fine. The nice thing about telex is that it semi-cheaper than clear-com and also they...
