Frustrated by working with microphones? With feeling intimidates when a lighting/sound or camera pro asks you what you want? I can help you know what you can ask for in each situation, what you can expect and teach you the language that will have them knowing they are dealing with a professional artist.
As a lighting technician and designer, I've lit hundreds of theatre shows and films. I also am a freelance photographer, performer and musician. I know what it's like to be on both sides of artistic projects, as a technician and as a performer. Let me help you take the next step to expand to multimedia and theatre projects. You've got a dream, let me help you find the words that will turn any project with a technician into a collaboration rather than an frustrating hurdle.
I can also give you simple tips about how to create your own look and show you some tools for smaller projects. Want to create your own professional looking photo shoot? Or just play with lights to see what you can do before you take it to the next level?
My how-to essay on this topic: "De-Mystifying The Language of Tech" was published and presented in 2016 for the Canadian Writer's Summit in the "Women in Multimedia" anthology by the League of Canadian Poets. I have a professional background in film and theatre lighting that extends over 25 years.
