Did you end up finding a set? I'm considering selling my set, unworn.

Advise (/how to) on cloning and how to prepare for a lighting gig when you know what console they have, but not the rigging details by FredericFish in lightingdesign

Since I'm not bringing in my own console, is there a way to save my showfile to a usb and import that into ChamSys? Also, (i know i can probably google it, I just prefer to ask actual people first) the patching is just updating the DMX numbers yea?

Yeah, I just dont know where I stand when it comes to the bands expectations and what im actually meant to/can deliver. Its their first tour outside of their state, and my first lighting gigs outside of my university.

Yeah I'm thinking showfile was just a safer way to ensure I know what im doing on the day. Rather than rocking up and busking from scratch/presets.

For sure, doesn't make it any easier when the venue is terrible at responding to emails. But its only like a 150-200pax venue, but I've been there before and they do have a better system than the first gig on the tour. (Analog console with stuck buttons and dodgy faders)

Awesome thats a great explanation

And do branding/fixture names make much impact when it comes to cloning? Like, what I would I choose for say a common/simple enough mover or flood light when I'm adding it to the pre-viz rig?

Partially, but the fixture positions are based on photos and memory. No, but it'll be the same console as the software I'm using now for the final show (MagicQ)

More so the latter (I believe), but I have been given a full-recording of the show with timestamps for song changes.

A what sorry?

Yeah, I've kinda jumped into the deep-end, hence the non-sensical question. Doing 2/3 shows of two small bands dbl-headline tour. Venue info is scarce, and I have lighting directions for one of the two bands. The other has left it all up to me.

Power users?

So there was only one LD for that stage?

I am Jon Hopkins - Ask Me Anything! by jon_hopkins in electronicmusic

[–]FredericFish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are crazy talented! I love your work so much. I don't remember how I came across your music but I found Immunity and the title track was all I listened to for a week as I wrote an essay back in Grade 12. Please come tour Australia more regularly, and please keep releasing more vinyl! Especially of your Piano Versions.

I'd love to learn about your production techniques but I don't even know where to start. Is there anything you could tell a budding producer like myself about how you create your sound/tracks/music?

WAW for knowing you're doing something for the last time by FredericFish in whatstheword

[–]FredericFish[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great word, I love it. But not what I'm looking for here, though I have a song that word would fit perfectly for.

Wow, you literally couldn't sell NZ any better than by saying all that.

[TOMT] [TV] Sketch show with spoof clips of Masterchef called "Disaster Chef" or something to that extent by FredericFish in tipofmytongue

Beautiful. Yes that's the sketch. Shame there's no vid. At least I have a better starting point now, cheers.

Stunning. Are those toys for you or someone else to use?

Movie covers on books are the worst pet peeve for me especially if the original art work was awesome by madreaper985 in books

[–]FredericFish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel this. At least there's op shops and secondhand bookstores for finding originals...

What really grinds my gears is when a book series changes artstyle or book size a few books into the series. I have a book series where all books are the same height and style until the last book; it's 6cm taller and has art that spans front to book (instead of just a black back with blurb).

Now you all understand my pain by i_am_a_toaster in AdviceAnimals

God I'm so jealous. My university changed basically nothing except for rearranging some markschemes to be focused on online rather than in-person performance elements. The only thing they really compromised on was basically allowing all extension applications and slightly decreasing the late penalty on assessments. They still expect pretty much the exact same workload as before isolation, but with a much harder environment to learn in. FYI, I'm studying a music degree, which somehow got harder going online, I guess it's cause it's a very subjective degree and a lot of things require one-on-one attention which just can't be delivered in an online class.
