AMTT presented BE THE GIG @ Oxford Art Factory 1 -3 July 2024.
BEHIND THE
GIG @ Oxford Art Factory was a technically terrific success! With 250 attendees
from 14 schools state-wide in attendance and some coming from as far as Scone
& Mona Vale to be a part of one of the days.
In July we
hosted 3 individual events with our industry experts showcasing their skills
and knowledge to the students. Working with live band “Vertebrae”, Instructors
assisted students in mic’ing up instruments, performing soundcheck, program
lighting cues across 2 consoles and wireless Astera & wired DMX lighting
and then run the light & sound consoles for the band performance at the end
of the day.
July, saw 250
students & teachers experience a day in the life of a tech industry
professional, setting up and operating for a LIVE guest band. Students were
guided in a hands-on approach to setting up microphones for real instruments.
Using the in-house Lighting and additional floor package of Elation, ACME,
Wireless DMX Astera Titan Tubes and Chamsys lighting consoles. The students themselves
worked on the design and performance of the stage lighting and mixing of live
sound.
