I have probably seen the musical Rock of Ages hundreds of times. Mostly from a tech table. But tonight for the very first time since 2008, Solly and I are seeing a production of it that I did not work on! Congratulations Loiederman Middle School of the Arts for keeping the lighters aflame! Don’t Stop Believin’!
Happy birthday to this guy who turns a whopping 17 years old today! Here a little video of Leo in his element, doing some lovely comping for his high school jazz band.
New episode! A conversation about the business side of being a projection designer with Zak Borovay.
Topics:
⭐️ Protections of a union
⭐️ Keeping your investments
⭐️ History of projection designers joining USA 829
⭐️ Freelancing versus being employed at a production company
⭐️ Recommending projects to the people you’re working with (because when you don’t, it is very noticeable)
