…So I've been browsing the forum for nearly 2 years now and only now have I decided to pull my finger out and start working on something cool! (and I do solemnly swear to start contributing something back to the forum!)... So I recon the best way to do this is to work with some more likeminded folk for a bit of inspiration!
I’ve recently changed jobs, (in live event AV) which has created a few more hours a week for me to remember why I got into the industry in the first place!! (i.e. not just corporate AV and award shows!)
The type of ‘ting I'd like to do is nothing new in the realm of 'pushing the boundaries’; just something of quality that is technically and creatively challenging …whilst having a laugh! ...By that I mean moving away from on the fly visuals projected on to a 4x3 screen (nothing wrong with that though!!), to creating more of a custom multi-projector video/light show that uses simple but crisp/powerful images to interact with the lighting and the riddum of some bad-ass beats! (Maybe working with a particular DJ or band?..I do have some parties/festivals in mind) As I said…I know this is nothing new, but to see a show with all of those elements working well together is an awesome experience…and with a bit of creativity and know how, big-budget-big-impact-look shows can be achieved with not a lorrar dorrar. I’m not doing this to make my millions (at first anyway!)…’It’s just about the enjoyment….man!’
So if you’ve got a bit of creative flair, knows your way ‘round a pixel and recon that this sounds like your cuppa char, let me know and we’ll hook up for few beers and see what can be done!
...location wise, I'm based in London but also very familiar with the scene in Leeds..so if you're anywhere near either, get in touch!
