Last weekend in North Creek we celebrated Waynestock V, a music-festival and fundraiser put out by the North Country Hardship Fund.
Creative donated gear and lights for the use of this event. We put some photos online on Flickr and our Facebook page. Check ‘em out.

Joel’s self description of his career is he’s “an old guy with a lot of shows under his belt.”
It’s true, his credits are too many to list. He’s worked both as a designer and programmer for many of the biggest names in the concert touring business — both musicians and designers, including Justin Timberlake and Christina Aguilera. Joel holds a degree in Theatre Design from the University of Arizona.
This is a follow up to the February CSL Webinar, Lighting Design 101: The Art of Illumination.
Guest Speakers Richard Cadena and Jeff Ravitz will be discussing the various elements of Lighting Design and how each would approach a similar project. Richard and Jeff will discuss the project from conception to realization.
This webinar is intended for a broad range of lighting professionals and aspiring professionals and it will provide a foundation for building a show from the ground up. Topics will once again include:
• Lighting instruments, positions, and purpose • Plotting, modeling, rendering, and visualization • Color combining and scene building • Programming and playback
