Hey, well I'm trying to find a decent (by decent I mean cheap), lighting everything really, dimmers, board, fixtures, and cords. I've worked with par-cans, and some small fernell's, also once worked with the leap-frog(I think it's that frog controller, it's the second one from the bottom) and 4 small scrollers, and 3 flood scrollers (forgot the name).
I need a decent set up for small gigs, nothing in the way of the scrollers again, but I'm just saying my experience (or lack thereof) I just need some decent coverage, mainly color and fill and solo, so everything (minus intelligent unless they're cheaper than I imagine)
I'm thinking maybe some par-64's and source 4's, i havent really worked with the latter much, but any input is great and needed. As far as the board and rigging go, I don't know, maybe two trees and a center pole.
I'm also trying to look into some basic lighting/CAd software (seeing as I'm also the school stage tech)
E-mail me and I'll be very happy to show you a show I've worked on (I'm so proud of the little bugger).
Thanks for your help, see at my school I am the lighting department, I'm graced by a national quality high school audio/video program, but sadly all our lighting knowledge fits in less than 1/4 of a filing cabinet which I am in charge of. So as far as formal training, I'm just another drop in the bucket, but I'm trying to find some gigs with one of our audio guys, which is what I'm trying to get some equipment for. I also work lights at our church (which is a pretty large church) but not being the super contemporary church we dont keep up with lighting technology since o, 6 or 7 years ago.
But once again, thank you for your help!
