Lighting Consoles - Avolites

Light is one of the most useful tools we have in making performance. It tells us where to look and has enormous impact on how we feel, but lighting technology is getting more and more complicated every day and knowing how to work with light can be challenging. This workshop is a little different to the two others running in this series - plus it's free! This session will focus specifically on setting up and running a lighting console, using Avolites consoles. The session will be run by Clare Springett - Avolites Business Development Manager who runs Avolites training across Australia and New Zealand. Clare is also an experienced lighting designer, production manager, venue manager and much much more. The goal of this session is to provide a relaxed, small group opportunity to learn about lighting control - while anyone is welcome, it will dive deeper into technical processes and is most suited to participants with at least a basic knowledge of stage lighting. Maximum group size will be 10 Access - Brunswick Mechanics Institute is a fairly accessible space with ramps into the venue and accessible bathrooms. We will avoid intense lighting effects like strobe lighting but it's worth noting that some flashing lights and extreme bright and dark moments are inevitable as participants learn to work with light. Please get in touch about access requirements so we can plan accordingly.
