  • My first show

    Well as some know my job is Audio-Visual Solutions, providing sound, lights, and techinical support for my school and the surrounding comunity, and I mean, everyone comes to our school to do everything! We got a auditorium that seats 1200. This was the first time I did sound witht eh board, offically.


    Under the stage at my school theres area named the "Pit", it used to be open in the early 80's and the band could go down and play there durring shows ect... Now it hoouses our Power Amplifier (Shown) as well as multiple flats and platforms. As well as grafitti.

    One of two Yorkville Speakers, they dont have any base on them, so sometiems we use our Base Bin (big ass thing) or our monitors which have amps built into them as well as base capabilities.

    Our Soundcraft Spirt LX7, Kickass board, 24 channels. Sweeeet.

    All fired up ready to go, just running the CD player.

    Both our CD-players aswell as our two EQ's which I havent adjusted yet.

    People sitting around on stage, this is my view from the Board.

    Our equipment room. Neatly organized hehehehe.

    The AV room looking forward from the stage, That thing in the front there is the platform, we havent put it away yet. you can see Pat in this picture, a friend of mine.

    Me at the board.

    Durring the rehersal I took this, the Cue/Script sheet on the un-used side of the board.

    Looking to the right of the board aswell as the red-light.

    My working area, I only had to use 7 channels durring this show.

    Dance Team on stage.

    Well this assembly was the Elimination of Racisim. It went really well. Hope you enjoyed! and I will show more pics later on!

        My mistake, its a club.

        from the site: "P.A.Tech is a school club composed of a group of enthusiastic, artistically and technically minded students who enjoy doing lights, sound and backstage work for school events"


        Here's job-

        job: the principal activity in your life that you do to earn money.

        It would be a good basis for a career in that field, though

            Back in 1998-2000, I used to do the same "job" when I went in highschool.

            I was located above 5 metre above everybody, Had an explendid view over the crowd.

            Look below, Im located in the green area, I had enough space to have 2 laptops to control most of my gear, one EQ, 2 amps.

            In the same room, I controlled the "smokers" , Lights and the stage-curtain..

            Nice Job Kevin. I liked it too. Keep up the good work.

            I used your picture to show an example.

                    No one cares if your cool or not, as long as you put on a helluva show and know what your doing ehehe. You could always do it once you leave HS.

                    Well i mostly and focusing on sound, our old lighting board (non digital, we got 2 new robotic Mac 250's two weeks ago) was down where the sound baord was. I was the last person to use it durring a major production.

                    So yeah, mostly focussing on sound cause I like sound more than lights.

                        Perhaps you need to learn when to close your mouth or stop talking/typing?

                              Would be more then happy to see your setup. Mind to post at the time you're finished setting it up ???

                              We borrowed ours at our local theatre, that happened to have the mac's in storage, They werent "geared" up yet, so they simply borrowed it to my school. Boy, Was I happy !
