Stage Crew is looking for Light Jockeys
Jaryic:
Hi there,
Ever wanted to do a Lightshow for all that Fursuiters dancing or while BBF is spinning?
Ever wanted to work with a big lighting rig?
Then we are looking for you!
We are looking for about 8 people to help us run the lightshow during the dances at EF.
Some experience in Martin Lightjockey is a plus but it's not needed. We will teach it to you in a couple of minutes, it's really simple and fun the moment you start working with it.
Also you will have an experienced light tech from our team at your side the whole time, that will help you if you get stuck somewhere.
The Dances last for about 8h each. So every volunteer will get a 2h "shift".
If we could rise your interest you can apply right here in this thread.
Already have some preferences? Tell them too. :)
Here are the Slots we are looking to fill in:
Fursuit Dance (Thursday)
21:00 - 23:00 Shift - A
23:00 - 01:00 Shift - B
01:00 - 03:00 Shift - C
03:00 - 05:00 Shift - D
Big Blue Dance (Saturday)
21:30 - 23:00 Shift - A
23:00 - 01:00 Shift - B
01:00 - 03:00 Shift - C
03:00 - 05:00 Shift - D
Thanks for your help

Diesel:
i'm interested in Thursday shift C
and big blue dance shift C :3
and maybe longer if it needs
i have experience but some tips and tricks are welcome.
Jorinda:
That sounds great... but I'm afraid I'm not good enough yet. I have no experience with this brand of equipment (and this amount of equipment), so I'd probably get all confused and cause more work for the team than be helpful. So far, I've only been the LJ at smaller cons, and I guess a party with 100 attendees has far less equipment than EF ;D.
Since this is my first EF, I'd rather leave this task to someone with more experience. I don't wanna be "that person who ruined the dance by crashing the light programming" ;).
Is it possible to hang around for one shift with another LJ and just watch and learn?
JonathanO:
i can help but i wan't have of the early shifts if posibel also no expercoence with light shows but i want to learn
Raider:
I'd really love to do this. I have absolutely no experience operating such a rig at all, but have played around with DMXControl for a bit (with a virtual setup, no real equipment involved). Of course, I'd be willing to read documentation ahead of time to make the on-site briefing as efficient as possible.
I would really appreciate the chance of trying it out. If possible, I'd like the Fursuit Dance Slot A B - given that you'd want someone with no experience to take that one.
