Hi folks, in September we launched a podcast at www.castinglightpodcast.com featuring practitioners of the art, craft, and business of entertainment lighting, focusing on education and career assistance. We have 7 shows posted so far and we're putting up 2 shows per month. The interviews and discussions are of 3 main types:
- Lighting designers, particularly those who cross over between multiple parts of the business. Photos, plans, and gear lists only go so far - what can we learn from them when we take a deeper look at their projects and careers?
- Programmers, lighting directors, and production electricians - the allied professionals who are critical to the execution of a design. What are they doing on an individual basis, and how did they get where they are?
- Other professional careers in lighting, including software programming, fixture design, and manufacturer representation. What can we learn from the practitioners, and what opportunities are out there?
We want to bring these diverse perspectives to an audience of students, practitioners, and allied industry associates, and help with the cross-pollination of ideas between theater, film, concerts, TV, etc. You can also find CLP on Facebook at

We are currently heavy on NYC-area guests, but are working on remote interview and recording solutions.
Please let us know what you think - thanks for reading!
