  • In this final episode, we'll be on-site finishing the stage build for MIA Festival in Shanghai. We face some interesting problems as our production schedule gets impacted by forces out of our control. Join me as we troubleshoot issues with fixtures, work with guest LDs, and operate the show.
    Due to a few editing errors, I have uploaded a new version of this video if you would like to see the final scene and not a blank screen :) vimeo.com/356107430

    You need a laser pointer with a visible beam. Would help with communication when pointing out things that are far out of reach or at a distance.

    • @imark7777777
      @imark7777777 4 года назад +7

      @yaa moirangcha I would say a decent quality green laser as the beam will go further and be fairly visible. Definitely something of decent quality because the one I got died. You could use red but it doesn't show up quite as well or go quite as far. After all green is usually used for pointing out Stars and driving airplanes crazy.

      I might be able to build/create a big stage where i am at, like in my big outdoor property and stuff like that. Not a huge massive stage or a medium size. A small size stage that can probably fit like 2 up hanging ' Short ' Line-Arrays speakers and also some DMX Lights and also my DJ Set. I can't really explain or think of it all...

    Well done on the main stage design, very nice, I did like the second stage more as an innovative design though.
    Keep up the good work!

    Hi Christian! Big fan of your videos where I do get to learn a lot of MA2 stuff. One thing I'm not getting any smarter with is using wings. I see several operators and people use wing just by using /wings=2 or similar to create pretty cool symmetrical effects. Whenever I try that the wing spreads out across multiple LX's or when I (for example) add fixture 1 thru 12 (spots) and fixture 13 thru 24 (washes) to an effect where the washes are placed in between the spots where 1 is most left and 12 is most right... The wing will ofcourse start off at fixture 1 and 24...
    I'd love to see a detailed video about this stuff and maybe some more cool, easy, handy effect related stuff. 👍
    You're a legend.. Keep up!

    yeah thats basically how the problems at all of our events a school look like. no just kidding we have problems like getting the equipment to late from the rental company or having not enough time to set it all up cause we're getting bigger and bigger with our setups. last time we went with 12 lacoustics kara (2x5 main rigging, 2x1 front fill), 4 KS28, 2 SB18 (used as x-over in rigging) and 6 x12 for monitoring. For light stuff we went with 12 JB Lighting P7, 8 Robe Spiider, 4 JB P18, 8 SGM Q-7W, 12 ClayPaky ShowBatten100, 16 TourLED 42cm and a GrandMA 2 Light. We had one day for all of the setup. The event was on the next day but we needed the time for the soundcheck with the bands and all the other stuff. Even though it was very stressful, we managed to finish in time and it was a heck of a lot fun.
    love your videos:)))))
