Giant Steps Are What You Take

Some may say I'm wishing my days away
No way, and if it's the price I pay
Some say tomorrow's another day
You stay, I may as well play
Giant steps are what you take
Walking on the moon

Long Days At Work

All of a sudden I have found myself back at work doing 10-12 hour days. People I thought did not respect me, do now or have. It is strange in ways but not really I suppose. People say they look at me and see a healthy clear headed Taelor. Less stress helps for sure also Neurofeedback therapy just as equally so.

My biggest thing now is to learn more about other lighting boards aside from the Hog 4, in which I am 10x better at than before and finding rest. I am so incredibly tired after just 12 days of long hours at work.

Las Vegas is experiencing a potentially record breaking year. Record breaking visitors and conferences/shows are lining up here.

Wouldn't it be cool if The HIVE Blockchain showed up to Vegas and held some event here for a conference? Hmm, maybe I need to stop buying Hive NFTs with my power downs and start powering up just on case. But let's be honest, there are some amazing Hive NFTs on @nftshowroom

Proof Of Work

I figured I would share some little quick videos of the lighting I did on the last show. I built these effects and looks in minutes. I could had done more but im expected to make these looks quick and be ready for rehearsals.

In the past, I admittedly would take much longer to make these looks and even building the cues. There is a lot of little things one must do and miss one small detail and you can have moving lights moving in cues when they shouldn't be or faders not working.

Cue 0.1 + Cue 1

I needed to build a Cue 0.1 because values track in this console. Probably more info than the average reader wants to hear about... Moving on. A Walk In look needed to be created for Cue 1 for when the attendees were arriving to the room. Here stage lights are off but moving lights and up stage lights have effects running.

Cue 2

Cue 2 needed to be a Settle look. Here the movers stop their effect and turn off with just the up lights lighting the drape on.

Cue 3

Cue 3 will be the Show look. The LED lekos will light the stage and uplights will remain on.

Cue 4

Cue 4 will be a Walk Out look. Here the audience is leaving with the same effect (a copy of cue 1) as the Walk In Cue.

Video Looks and Awards effects

I also needed a Video look for when videos play where the stage lights dim to 10%. As well as a Moving Light Effect for awards and introductions. I put these on separate faders and used as called on by the show caller/producer.

Again I am tired

This post feels rushed but I want to keep posting even if it's not as much details I was how I wanted to share.
