First of, from here on in this blog becomes much more technical.
Secondly i find it mildly annoying that Google auto translates everything to Norwegian.
Today we began the focus for Tosca. we started with the FOH systems. I think it went mostly, smoothly. there were a few times were i was struggling to keep up with David and the crew as he quickly Hoped from light to light, but i think as i get back in to the swing of things i will definitely pick up the pace. Despite working on 10 shows in the past year i only actually assisted on one of them, so i fear my focus charts and experience as an assistant is not up to the level it should be, but working here is giving me the chance to make leaps and bounds in my experience.
Although this show is a remount, i think there are going to be many changes to the Cues as the instruments here are much more powerful than the ones in the previous show (750W to 2.5kW on most of the conventional lights) Also i believe the wattage of the bulbs might have an effect on the difference between the warm and the cool systems.
Did i mention the crew was awesome, well let me say it one more time, awesome
And the space is beyond the scope of any theatre i have been in, Moving decks that go down 40 feet, multiple black-box rehearsal spaces/theatres, its own computer lab, a scene shop the size of a city block. i could write about 10 pages on the equipment and technology they have here, but i think its a bit more important to finish my EOD
