  • Wow, what an awesome opportunity to travel halfway around the world to help produce the first year of MIA music festival. This was my first time visiting China, and this was the largest stage I've had the chance to design so far.
    In this video, I'll walk you through our first day of setup for the festival.
    Patreon supporters have full access to the plots, renderings, and 3D files used to build this show. Support my content here: / christianjackson
    We spent a whole week putting this show together and I'm VERY thankful for the following people who made it all happen:
    Sunny & Tim from Dawnstage - dawnstage.net/
    Pavel Parakhonich - VJ / parakhonich
    Austin - Production Manager
    Whitney Mak - Lighting project manager
    Fiona Liang - Runner & hospitality

    Pretty sure most of the lighting fixtures on stage are from China's 'big' lighting manufacturers like Terbly/Goldensea (who I think own Ayrton), ACME e.t.c. Also, love those dual sided 360 bars (Jolly D5 BS), they look very cool.

    Im very interested in the work that had to be done prior to this video! What CAD Software did you use? How far could you influence the scenic design? How is your workflow regarding settimg up the lights on the pc and then extracting a showfile from it?
    I work in a small shop as a CAD planner with Vectorworks and I always ask myself how that all works on big shows like this.

    @kainpwnsu 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Ooh! The Avery labels for fixtures is fantastic. Goodbye label machine! The problem with the label printers is the label tape is heat sensitive and some get turned black due to bad placement.
    The advantage of the label printers is they can be used on site and on demand. But... sometimes black labels.

    Great video! One thing i noticed: it sounds like you're recording the voiceover with a stereo microphone, and it is a bit weird, the sound isn't completely in the center, a bit shifted to the right. Summing the VO track to mono should fix this issue.

    4:58 why do you have 40 channel offset between fixtures although they are 39 channels each ? Is it for convenience ?

    • @christianjackson
      @christianjackson  5 ปีที่แล้ว +17

      because the actual fixtures occupy 40 channels, but the fixture in capture has a different channel number. I will often add a few channels of space between fixtures on shows like this where modes might not be documented properly. this allows space for errors.
