Here Comes S.A.S.T.

Short Attention Span Theatre is kicking into high gear. I was supposed to only handle the lighting but our director is doing so much for the musical at the moment that I now am the Lighting Designer, Set Designer, and Technical Director. I'm also doing the lighting for the musical but she decided to design so I'm just doing the "execution". Back to SAST... I set out yesterday to get the set design done and I did but then I started playing around with the lighting design and I might've finished that too. I don't think I'm 100% done with it yet but I'd say I'm pretty close. I'm quite satisfied with it in light of the fact that it took me a day. I got all the lights set up and I tried to do some cueing for the beginning of the show but we haven't decided the show order yet. I was talking to one of the stage managers the other day and he said that Mrs. Ogle said some things about us possibly getting an ETC Element by the end of the year. That is both good and bad. If we get it after SAST then we are good but if we get it before, it could take some time to work out the kinks in the system as I imagine we would have. It would be especially difficult because of the nature of the cue list, everything is in order. We don't always know the order of the shows until a week before so I would have to hold off the cueing until the dress rehearsals. Either way, I really want this board because our board is analogue. BOO. We really need a new board.

That's pretty much it,

That Tech Kid, Jordan.
