The rest of the pictures are for events I setup and run lights for. Often proms, homecomeings,
etc.
For these ones, the only thing I have control over is the moving lights. I DO NOT design the
props, stages, or layouts. I just setup all of the gear as per the design. Hang,
address, program, and run all the lights. And at the end of the night I take it all down.
This was an old one, I forgot what for, but the setup was huge.
This was 2 weekends ago, decent sized show, most of it was wireless so wireing wasn't to bad.
This was a prom at the Cerritos Theater. Really fun to do, because there are shows there every weekend, so all the gear stays up.
This was right after I finished set up. My boss (seen with the bowl of food) was telliing me to hurry up so he could finish
sound check. I was telling him to raise the
boom out more. I got the
boom out more, he got his
sound check. That night was attrocious, because everything was on a slant, making loading and unloading awful, I barely trusted the TVs up on the 8s and 10s, had to get a bunch more sandbags before it felt solid, and I ended up
tripping over the booms hydraulic jacks and ripping my
leg open
All lighting for the event company is done with:
Knock Off
LED panels
Knock Off
LED Spots
Kock Off
LED Washes
Knock Off everything pretty much. I know what the lights are knocking off, but they are of unknown manafacturer, not mine, and I don't have to pay to get them repaired. As long as the show looks good, and they end up back in the warehouse, I'm good.
For lighting boards on those events, I use either an awful, awful Elation basic board, or a slightly less awful
Leprecon LP-X48.
I should be hired at the college starting next semester, so I won't have to do the events anymore.
