Production Porfolio

About my experience 

As a freshman in high school I fell in love with light design. I had a technical theatre class and the teacher put on a little light show for us. I remember sitting in class thinking "Woah I wish I could do that one day." Soon tech was my thing. It was my life and my identity. It was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. 

At age 15 I got a job at The Flagler Auditorium as a stagehand. The Flagler Auditorium is a 1200 perfessional auditorium that brings in 15-20 tourng bands per year. There I learned all the basics to production: signal flow, analog mixers, digital mixers (Allen & Heath boards), cable types, how to solder cables, how to wire basic electrical, microphone types, how to set up instrument set ups, how to set up a stage for a show, how to design a lighting plot, how to operate lighting boards(ETC ION), etc. 

At the auditorium I worked along side the Technical Director and Assistant Technical Director to help with all shows. If that was a touring band with a semi loading in or a school board meeting. After putting in my time at the auditorium I was given the opportunity to do lights for some of the bands they had come in and was trusted by the TD so he could have nights off and me and the ATD worked shows. At the auditorium I worked over 150 shows. 

Along with The Flagler Auditorium I was also hired by The Flagler Playhouse. There I helped directors set up lighitng plot and deisgn shows.
