"That actually worked... just." XD my crew during every production
are you Rosie in the video?
Its interesting to see the relationship of all the pieces of backstage production and how in tempo they are in with the actual show and not to mention the music.
That's amazing, I was feeling like in the flight control room of the Show. Great job.
Awesomely produced video. Was about to suggest adding in a view of the LX Board Op and then she appeared just before the end! Awesome work!
Spoken like a board op !! Lol.
I'm a spotlight operator and there's no spots in the show. I really love what they do very fortunate , I know you feel the same way too
i did lighting for footlose about a month ago, was great!!
The video sound is pretty good, beyond my imagination
Been working with timecode for so long I forgot what it was like for an SM to call light cues and not just automation and flying cues
Very good and funny videos bring a great sense of entertainment!
Ugh i always love technical department and i love more in lapel cues hahahahaha
Love it! Have been doing technical theatre for nine years semi professionally. Close to 200 shows. Love watch videos like this. Do have the whole show by any chance?
Genuinely interesting
i couldn't find a single cue in that wild conducting.. xD
Felix18302 are you saying that as a good or a bad thing??
..
Adi Miller bad
i was light board op for Rent at my school once except my sm couldnt count music, so she would call things a measure ahead or behind. most frustrating show of my life
Little late on some of those cues there! I know the pain :p
Hate to be the party pooper, but your lighting op has a mind of their own... triggering cues early and late and seemingly not waiting for the SM's cues but trying to learn them all by herself. Not to mention it doesn't even look like she's on comms lol
Saying that, It seems that she's taking the cues at the right time and it's the DSM that's out of time with the music. Still agree that the op should only go when the cue is called tho.
Realistically whilst I agree that it's frustrating when your LX op goes on their own, this DSM seems to be late on almost every cue. Proper thing to do in the ops shoes would probably to have a conversation with the DSM about calling cues half a beat ahead of the music to give you time but I can see why in this case she's just taking her own cues when she knows that she knows better.
Lighting op definitely on coms (you can see the band on their head and the mic in front of them) and totally saving SM's ass here. Of course technically a Lighting Op should only take it with their go's and let the blame fall on the SM, but many lighting ops know the show lighting-wise much better than the SM in amateur productions like these.
My DSM would be alittle off on cues for songs alot and i brought it up to him and he actaully told me to run the cues for the songs on my own which was intresting XD
It’s a bummer this lighting designer appears to be more concerned with how the lights look on the floor vs how they shape and sculpt the actors in their setting
thats the point of LFX though... they have a pretty good actor wash
I mean this number is an exciting opening to the show set in a Chicago club, there are supposed to be big effects. When they get to the church at the end of the number, clearly there are are more subtle lighting choices.
I totally understand.
Is the sound guy using DCAs at all?
He is definitely doing it the hard way...
oh hey Jacinta.
Why not just pre-record all of the light sequences and if the actors miss their marks it's their fault? 🙃
Any clue what sound desk that is?

NinjaTheTube Thanks
Renigadecrew I would say a soundcraft vi series
We Don't Know What We Do ? It's not the vi series
Renigadecrew ok! Vi series are still outstanding desks tho
what is LX ?
@@jameslando1 X might be a variable x=22 for LX22 like Light Cue Number 22
LX is just the abbreviation of Lights. On our board/computer our light cues are numbered, so when the SM calls LX10 it means Lights, cue 10.
@@laura4603 Thank you
Here's how NOT to mix musical theatre. Definitely making life hard for himself on sound there
Great vid till they started singing. Yuck!!
who needs performers?
/s
I think that was not helped by the compression and clipping on all of the microphones on the comms. There would be weird funk going on due to the delay of the sound from the speakers to each headset microphone etc.
I did not subscribe to this
Ok tom....
Okay... tom...
The video sound is pretty good, beyond my imagination
