Lightshark user training

Have you recently acquired the Lightshark LS1 or Lightshark Core and have a grasp of the basics of controlling it? Are you now seeking ideas on how to program a captivating light show? Then this course might be just what you need! I’ll be teaching you how to program a versatile light show—a concept that can serve as a foundation for various venues, fixtures, and bands. The technique of improvising with lights, known as ‘busking,’ allows you to work as a lighting designer in live situations, even if you’re unfamiliar with the band taking the stage. Moreover, it provides a solid starting point for programming a customized light show for your own band. You can begin with this concept and progress to more song-specific designs. We’re going to start by dividing our fixtures into five different groups: Frontlight, Spotlight, Beamlight, Washlight, and Blinder. Then, we’ll create different executor faders, some with different cues and some with only one cue, as well as some special executors controlling speed for effects or chases. For the general design, we’ll create a matrix color picker, a position, and a gobo picker, effects, and some chases. Later on, I will explain how to work with this show file and how to improve it.
