3 local light technicians will be able to operate special effect lighting during local productions with less than four hours of light setting. We will conduct three focus groups with our local lighting technicians. The first will address issues they currently face with setting lights for shows. The second will occur following the installation of the light board and initial training. The third will occur after they have worked a show.
Our measurable outcome was to have 3 local light technicians able to operate special effect lighting during local productions with less than 4 hours of light set up. We have accomplished this goal. Our lighting technicians are very positive about the new light board, feeling set up is easier, with a greater range of flexibility in lighting. The use of a moving light on the stage is a safety and aesthetic improvement. They are now able to light the way for someone climbing steps to the stage and then walking across the stage to the performance point. They also feel that features of the new light board are much easier to figure out when their memory needs to be refreshed regarding differing techniques.
