A Sound and Video Production Company
This semester at NVCC, we are doing three theatre shows, when we normally only do one. One of these shows, the musical, was initially dreamed up to be more of a revue, overseen by the music department. It has since changed shows and treatments, substantially. But this is exciting for me. We have ended up …
The rest of this season is going to get very interesting. I have three schools that I will be working with, that, between them, have six shows all opening in a six week window of time! This is a new challenge, but with some planning and workflow choices, I can do it. Some are bigger …
As anyone who has worked with me in the past couple of years knows, I am a fanatic about Qlab. That program has really changed what is possible, especially on the shows where I am allowed to run rampant, creatively – I can output, or control, all of the elements I come up with for …
Last night was a random one-off in Providence, RI. It was a white-tie affair – dinner for big PBS donors, followed by a sneak preview of the first hour of the final season of Downton Abbey. I don’t have a copy of the show, so please don’t ask. 🙂 But this was quite a fabulous …
Greetings from Boston! I will be here for a couple of days working on an event that is a luncheon benefiting a women’s shelter called Rosie’s Place. I’m on Team Video, the governor and first lady will be here, and the keynote speaker will be Piper Kerman, the author of the book “Orange is the …
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 …
As posted last time, Fall has been a constant flow and no days off. I figured I would finally get to have a break just after Thanksgiving – finish my corporate gig, come back to Fairfield U for the second show of the season for a week and a half, and then rest. 70 days …
Driving across the country! Yeah! That’s my summer. Mary and I are trying to hit all 50 states (or finish hitting them) in the next couple of years. Which means I have 9 left after this trip, and she will have 11. (Helps that we are hitting 26 or so on this trip alone.) While …
Here it is! The project I worked so hard on earlier this summer, straining to teach myself more about Qlab and MIDI. Made the best of a situation with very little gear, and I think we did some fine work as a result. Special thanks to director John Regis for bringing me in and letting …
I was right. What was supposed to be a short show run at Bankstreet School for Children has turned into a long show run, and then getting into all of the other shows that were happening at the end of the school year. After the Wizard of Oz, there was A Midsummer Night’s Dream (with …
