It’s the Power of Love

Happy New Year!  Sadly, I still haven’t gotten to rest. But I just did an awesome gig last night with the Power of Love, a Huey Lewis and the News tribute act, at the Sinclair in Cambridge, MA. My job was directing the lighting while I mixed a video wall on the fly. We had one rehearsal, just before Christmas, and made some content changes.  Below is the result. I used a combination of QLab and VDMX to mix the video, controlled via OSC over a wifi network I brought and my iPad.

This was a challenging gig for me, but worth it. As the band finished their encore, I collapsed into a chair in the control booth, practically panting, I was so exhausted from keeping the show flowing and interesting behind the band. What a rush!
