Live training

Your rig. Your showfile. A trainer who has run it on set.

For when you don’t have time to work through a course, and the crew needs to be fluent by the shoot.

What it costs depends on what you’re running. Crew size, location, and how much prep your showfile needs all move the number, so we quote it rather than list it. Tell us what you’re lighting and we’ll come back the same day.

Step 1Tell us the date and the rig

Two minutes. We confirm availability within a business day.

Step 2Send your showfile or rig list

We build the session around your fixtures, your venue and your cue list.

Step 3Run the show together

Patch, plot, program and run, then keep the recording and the notes.
