that feeling when you spend almost three hours studying a light board instead of studying for the geometry final because its more fun to do lights than shapes. I love tech theater >:)

change speed to x1.5 it helps no problem scott

2:43:06 he knew we were up at 3 AM watching this

Ah, the joys of watching a 2 hour video to learn how to run light effects for drama

As someone coming back into the industry having grown up at a time when moving lights had only just been invented, colour scrollers were considered complex and the Strand Patt 23 lamp was still in widespread use, I have a steep learning curve ahead of me. My first lighting 'board' was a Grand Master (albeit at school) and I grew up on the Rank Strand MMS which was (in the 1980s) the standard house board for all main theatres in the UK. This gentleman leads you by the hand, clearly aware of history, and explains everything in a clear, logical and practical sequence. Given that this video is 7 years old (at the time of writing) I am sure he has moved on to greater things but I would like to commend this instructor for his excellent, hands on, approach to learning the Eos. Bravo!

Anyone else here for mr. J's teck theater class.

This is so complete, well written, well, narrated, etc.. Is this from the company? It should be. I hope you got well paid; just so professional. Thank you.

If I hadn't seen this video, I would be so frustrated I would start CRION

Does this lights console have a compatible pc software integration from witch can programs at home ona laptop the lights sessions before show? If does please link to me 🙏

Clear and concise. Very helpful! And someone with a nice voice presenting it! Makes a big difference.

This is so dry but so concise, I love it... anyone have some ritalin?

what would happen for example if the first cue with a long duration turns a light up slowly and then finishes, but the second cue, which went off during the wait, has the light off in it?

WOOOOOOOOOT I FINISHED

I'm here because we normally use GrandMa boards but we have a backup ion that gets used every once and a while and it's been so long, I forgot a lot of functions/features 😬

Very professional done tutorials! Very grateful to the crew who produced this video!

Herebto freshin up my knowledge. But couldnt help notice this video looks like it was made in the 90s

very informative video really helps having started working in local arts centre that does theatre of all sorts and now learning how to use this same board it's great

44:32

I used one of these in a theater production, and it blue screened halfway through 😂

Does anyone know the person who made this video, I need to know who did this

Good call referring to the Stage Manager as a "she," should be the default in this case. ;)

58:00 cue

If I said this wasn't the best thing ever I'd be LION

Can you use a track ball for x y for moving heads I am only part way into this video so you may talk about this.

Best 2 and a half hours of my life

Where can I find it

1:06:51

You would not believe your eyes if ten mill-ION fireflies programed your light board as you fell asleep

Can we renumbered cues ?

Now I can program lights with even TrION

LOOOOVE the ion

SPOILER WARNING: He talks about Blind Mode a little after the halfway mark

Ion more like Mion
