With Matilda the musical is only 9 weeks away our GrandMA console and pre-vis software has been working hard!!
It’s such incredible technology for pre programming enabling us to half the budget and hire time of fixtures.
Here’s a little sneak peak of revolting children #school #Matilda #lighting
It was so good to be back behind the console lighting up the night sky!
2022 has definitely started with a bang! Always a pleasure working with Will Stuart and the team at Front of House Productions AUS
As you’ve no doubt guessed the theme of the show was Love is Christmas.
The show consistent of 6 blocks with 3-4 songs in each. The entire running sheet of the show is planned to the second, from the time it takes to walk 25 kids from holding zones to landing areas, the time it takes for the host to deliver the scripted content, time for set peices to be moved and songs that are timed to the second.
Every moment on the stage is planned and blocked out months in advanced for cameras and lighting is all pre programmed in a 3D space. The script had close to 18 revisions with several different versions produced.
Music is scored by a professional musician
We have to take people on a journey , it starts with a song introduction to set the mood, then several “all in” songs in which people are encouraged to join in, when then move into some special moments to bring the focus in.
Then, after greeting time it’s time to bring the mood back up, and then it’s time for our kids segment. Following that we launch into the care message, video and main message. It is now when we are ready to use the song and launch into the finale.
The show is a journey, it goes from big to intimate
Here’s the final two songs of the show
PS sorry about the audio mix, not the best operators
