Reading these comments made my anxiety raise to new heights...Thomas, your theatre manager is either lazy or not a real lighting designer... perhaps both.Every tour (bway, concert, dance show) that comes through my venue ALWAYS runs their show from the house! And my booth, while elevated, is...

Yeah i thought about that too... that would require drilling into concrete though in order for the contraption to be mounted. They run from a vomitorium (sp?) cave like thing... Also might have to chill the pipe as well in order to not lose the density as it passed through the pipe!

appreciate the feedback! This is a high school arena so liquid nitrogen is probably out of the question. The donor isnt exactly a tech orieted person so asking him specifics has been laughable. So far what i can gather is that he would like a curtain (or sheet as he put it) of fog for the team...

Agreed with theprice... but if youre looking for ease of control and as a learning tool stick with Yamaha! Wouldnt trade my M7 for the world but if budget is an issue check the LS9!

I've been approached by a wealthy donor who wants a smoke effect for our high school basketball team... it has to be high output and dissipate rather quickly. The venue is a 3500 seat arena so space and price isn't an issue! Please email your recomendations to:[email protected]!!

The truss was bought from gear source for 250 per 12' stick... a steal in the truss world I know...esp for 24" box! Was bought from Vegas and is home made... That being said, it was constructed using 1.5" aluminium square tubing and was welded by a certified aluminium welder. But I have no specs...

To all you rigging pro's in the world.... Does anybody know anything about High Sierra brand Truss??? My school just bought 16 sticks and Ive not heard of this brand... Thoughts??? Please email me at [email protected]!

Anybody have suggestions for a program for PC??? No Mac, No access to Mac, No desire for Mac.... Is SFX suggested by anybody???

Ive been looking around CB for an answer, but cant seem to find one... So, I ask... Is there any way to link my M7 to my ETC ION?? I LD a dance show at the end of every year and would like to somehow be able to press GO on something and the music play as well as change to each of the 20+ light...

LOVE the idea of the automated remote Follow Spot!!! Go with that one!!

Im a 26 year old Carp who's been thrown in a dream TD job.... Problem, Im no sparkie and i have to LD shows and stuff.... Im looking for light workshops this summer so i can light solo next year... Anybody got workshops they would recommend??? please send them to [email protected] thanks so...

All very good suggestions!! thank you so much!! i talked to the "powers that be" and we're talking about installing three! thanks again for the info!!

Does anybody know any company that manufactures and sells "in deck" scenery track??? I've seen it on broadway in the floor of Guys and Dolls.... there were 3 different tracks inset in the deck that carried the set pieces on and off stage... If you've heard of said produce and know of a...

we coat all of our foam set pieces in a rubber coating... Bmi sells it... havent tried to bend it but it should be more structural that way....

dude.... thats WAY too much work for one person to take on... Band director AND TD???? I think not!!! My thoughts and prayers are with him if he stays!!
