Lighting Console Optimization
Design Faster. Program Smarter. Reuse Everything!
A workshop for programmers and designers who want to work faster and think more clearly at the desk. We cover file and channel organization, magic sheets, macros, and the structural choices that compound over time so you're not just adding skills, you're multiplying them. We focus on the ETC EOS family, but these concepts apply to any console and workflow.
Less tips and tricks, more long-term strategy…(but still some tips & tricks!)
Typically 2 hours. Scalable from 90 minutes to full day.
Conference style via presentation, or lab format with consoles.
Groups from 2 to 200.
Works for individuals, classes, production teams, or conferences.

Networking & OSC Training for lighting professionals
Modern productions from universities to Broadway increasingly span multiple universes, devices, and networks, and the infrastructure connecting them is now part of the job. This workshop covers how devices talk to each other: network fundamentals, OSC communication, and building connectivity that holds up under production conditions.
Typically 3 hours. Scalable from 2 hours to full day.
Conference style via presentation with single console and computer, or lab format with multiple consoles.
Groups from 2 to 20.
Works for individuals, classes, production teams, or conferences.
QLab Fundamentals
More than playback.
QLab has become the backbone of media and show control in theaters of all sizes but most users barely scratch the surface. This workshop covers workspace organization, cue structure, video and projection routing, and how QLab integrates with the larger production system.
Built for projection designers, operators, stage managers, and production teams who want to use the tool with more intention.
Typically 3 hours. Scalable from 2 hours to full day.
Lab format with each user on their own machine (mac-only). Conference style via presentation available.
Groups from 2 to 10. Up to 2 per machine.
Works for individuals, classes, or production teams.
Other workshops available by request!
Bring a Workshop to Your Team
These sessions work for production departments, conferences, university programs, and professional development days. Duration and focus are flexible from a focused couple of hours to a full day, shaped around what you actually need.
I'm often already in your region for a show, which makes logistics easier.
If you're considering a session, let's talk about what would be most useful.
