ChamSys will be offering four free introductory hands-on lighting console sessions for church techs at WFX on Wednesday and Thursday, October 11 and 12.
Each session is 45 minutes and will take place in room C-145 at the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center in Dallas as part of the WFX Conference and Expo.
Participants in each session will get hands-on experience working their own lighting consoles. The four scheduled sessions are on Wednesday, October 11 at 11 a.m. and at 2:30 p.m., as well as on Thursday, October 12 at 9:30 a.m. and 10:30 a.m.
WFX visitors are encouraged to pre-register for the session, as each session is limited to 12 people.
The sessions will be conducted by ChamSys USA Director Philip Watson, a lighting designer, and will cover topics like the essentials of console layout, patching, recording and editing cues, and applying effects using MagicVis.
“Our goal is to take the mystery out of programming to give designers and programmers greater control over the lighting at their churches,” said Watson. “Becoming familiar with your console is essential if you want to make the best use possible of lighting at your house of worship.”
