Setting Up - Concert and Load Out

A behind the scenes look at the things involved in doing a concert in a ballroom setting. Sound system, sound check, and lighting set up. Backline set up. Show prep. Tear down (AKA Strike) and load out. A look at the stage from onstage and at all of the various worlds involved in building a show and making it happen before the audience arrives.

Digico console at Front of House. Avid SC48 console in monitor world. Ultra Arc II followspots. Grandma lighting console. Mostly Chauvet Pro lighting (R2 Wash, R2 Spot, Strike fixtures, Maverick fixtures).

For this show, I wanted to get more detail versus throughout the day versus time-lapse footage. This video is an educational and informative look at the things that go into making a music show happen.
