Course: More than Pressing Go
COURSE DESCRIPTION
A technically heavy dive into the things you can do on ETC EOS lighting boards from effects and follows to magic sheets and (if you really want) macros. This is a course for people who want to know detailed shortcuts and tips and tricks to operating a ETC EOS Lighting Desk. It's dense, but if you're a nerd like Jess it's really interesting and fun.
For all ability levels, but a basic understanding of lighting operation recommended (cues, go button, power on + off). If you know how to program a macro, an effect, or a magic sheet you are beyond my teaching. Good for anyone who would like to learn how to program lighting, build effects and make magic sheets on an EOS board - everything is in the manual but this is for visual and practical learners who have difficulty parsing and learning from dense manuals
COURSE DETAILS
This course will run from 10am-1pm including a 30 minute break

If there exists a job in theatre, Jessica has probably worn the hat at one point or another, although she primarily works as a technician and lighting designer now she still assists in clowning and directing workshops, leads on teaching people many different tech skills and is always eager to help people with their work, from her work as a technician to talking through Ideas and how to implement them in theatre. Her varied background allows her to bridge the gap between performer, designer and operator to help productions come together as smoothly and effectively as possible.
