About the Course
MODULE 1: FOUNDATIONS
This module begins with the aim to establish a base knowledge of lights and their power and signal counterparts. Deeper knowledge of a lighting instrument’s purpose, use and components will enhance your skillset both in programming & troubleshooting. Finally, a focus on the ins and outs of the support positions for an LD will give you an edge developing your client list and industry reputation. Knowledge of the expectations of these positions and how to make yourself stand out by exceeding them leads directly to more frequent and higher quality recommendations to prospective new clients.
