Unfortunately I've got a lot on my to do list right now, including balancing school and theatre.
School!! What's so important about school. When I was teaching my best techs were always failing all their other classes. Oh wait... that's probably not a good thing
To add to the wierd-discoveries-in-a-lighting-instrument list...
I opened up one of those Altman KL instruments (they're basically crap in and oversized box anyway, but...) because I had noticed even more spill than usual (which is a lot). I found the reflector in the worst shape I'd ever seen or heard of. It looked as if the reflector had been chipped and cracked from missuse and then SPRAY PAINTED with a greyish-silver color to "make up" for the cracks in the lense. Boy, I was pissed.
Needless to say that instrument is basically useless now...not that i really want to use it, but when you're in a pinch it's nice to have SOMETHING. Not to mention the fact that I'm sure silver spraypaint isn't rated to be so close to intense heat like that...
