What did you do to make the club 80's sign? Did you buy it or make is, and if made how?

why not, though i suspect my 'high school shows' will pale in comparison to the fantastic ones that seem to be coming from the us..

Bertolt Brechts 'The Resistable Rise of Arturo Ui'
year 12 for me, 2006. again with the 14 lanterns
those red ones are fresnels on tree's with red gel. And we used a laptop hooked up to a projector and MS powerpoint! woo! haha. I was set / lghting designer and an actor.
'Little Shop of Horrors' again 2006. Whole High School musical, I was assistant set & Lighting designer, and "SM" (ASM), as well as general builder, painter, puppet builder, etc.
Thus ends High School and onto a Diploma of Theatre Arts
'Three Pairs of Shorts' - a Set of 6 short ~10 minute plays written by our class for our individual scriptwriting pieces, 6 were chosen. 2007, I was 18.
'Stranger Outside' - set in a country town of Australia. I was set designer. All that wool is about $10k worth, apparently. The director added it like 2 days before the show becuase a friend had donated it, and since it was worth so much we had to use it. The cyc went from daylight to sunset, i dont have a good picture though. The walls are on trucks, becuase they needed to move off (there was 3 of them) in under a minute. which never happened, but we got close.
'World Without Sin' - another one of the 6 short plays, this time set in a church in a inner city suburban town. I was Lighting Designer for this one.
Due to doing 6 plays that were all vastly different, using the same rig, it was a case of only a few specific lanters for each show. for World Without sin the writer really wanted church windows, so Gobo's it was. We also had a 'confession box' which was basically a fresnel? maybe? on the floor then a person sitting in front of it inside a 'box' to create a shadow.
'Ship Sails and Mermaid Tales' - 2007. a show for children about a pirate and evil queens and a magical egg that hatches into a pheonix and brings peach to the world. Toured for 16 shows to primary schools in the local area, as well as a school for mentally disabled children, and some more poverty stricken schools that cannot afford to get drama into the school. (due to the Uni red tape, we could not charge for the show.)
Unfortunately not the best picture, I had better but they don;t appear to exist. Set was 4 flats in 2 pairs, a boom across the top and some fabric. I don't know why it's purple either XD (the black stockings with googly eyes are snakes. chick with the clarinet is a snake charmer. one snake had the magic gem so the kids (2 actors) could talk to the mermaids and retrieve the chest with the egg before the two evil Queens. (oh, we wrote the script, totally hilarious!)
and thats about it Currently working on the lighting design for a musical at the moment, will psot pics when they exist.
fake edit; woah long post ;-;

Hey Guys, I'm new to the forum and figured I'd post some of my work. http://www.interfuzion.com/port/index.html Let me know what you think.
Welcome to the booth ACCIUS, you should stop by the new member forum and introduce yourself!
Here's what I've been working on for the last 8 days. Corporate show, this is the "Entertainment Night." Finally, tomorrow is load-out!
Five screens of VersaTubes, I think around 600 tubes total. Three HUGE RP screens, HD of course. Lighting: Atomics w/ scrollers, M2K Washes and Performances, and 5K Fresnels.

A driveway outside a restaurant I lit last night. Colors are actually green and amber, but don't show up that way. I also had some pars for the "celebrity" photo op area and a few movers doing searchlight type stuff scanning the building across the street.
The rain wasn't fun, but we survived.

yeah, unfortunately in our auditorium, we couldn't tie it off to anything on the side, because the architects brilliantly put closets on the rear of the stage that the janitors need to access daily.
Careful of the sharp cloud gobos, unless the set is cartoonish clouds are not really that sharp.

we actually had two sets of cloud gobos, one set was realistic, we called it Indonesia, because it looked like a blurry scattering of islands.
wow those are really good Serra, how did you light under the platforms? And was that an all conventional plot?
