Aaron Crosby commented on Gwydion Suilebhan's blog post Conservatives and Theater"Gwydion,
I was just curious as to how you are defining "conservative". Are you meaning politically, especially dealing with the influence of the government? Or are you using the term in the broader, more morally based sense? I would…"

Aaron Crosby posted a blog postLighting Design Portfolio
I am currently a Junior in an undergraduate theater program. My current plans are to continue my education and work towards an MFA in Lighting Design. I have a variety of experiences as a theater technician ranging from lighting and sound to carpentry. I recently updated my resume to make sure that formatting wise it was up to par for presentations to internships and graduate schools. My next step is to put together a presentable portfolio.I would appreciate any advice in creating this…See More
Aaron Crosby commented on Daniel Reith's group Stage Combat"Stage Combat tends to be an extremely difficult topic to find stuff on at a library. Sometimes you can find really good books at used bookstores. If you find something get it...that's my two sense."
Aaron Crosby commented on Daniel Reith's group Stage Combat"Nathan, for hand to hand try "Combat Mime" and out of all the books I've picked up, the best for swordplay is "Actors On Guard" Hope this helps!"

Aaron Crosby commented on Judith Felix's group Theatre Marketing/Web Design"I am working on a website and am curious as to what content people think is the most important for putting on the Home Page. My site is a combination of portfolio, resume, and about me as a professional technician."
Jacob Coakley commented on Aaron Crosby's blog post Sound Effects"I'm with Rich and Richelle on this one. Hollywood Edge is the place if you need some libraries on CD - for everything else I needed when I did sound design I was a big devotee of of SoundDogs.com"
Richelle Thompson commented on Aaron Crosby's blog post Sound Effects"Along with Hollywood Edge I'm a fan of Sound Ideas. They have several great libraries. I invested in the 6000 series which is the most modern and comprehensive. The BBC library has some good atmosphere tracks - but anything practical (like…"

Sound Effects
I have been building sound cues for the last couple productions that I have been involved with and was wondering what resources others used to find good effects. I would love to hear from you. Where do you find your sound effects?

Aaron,
At this time we use 6 HES 575 Studio Colors and 2 ETC Revolutions on a semi regular basis usually programmed on a Hog1000 console. We have been talking about adding a pair of Varilight units to our inventory but haven't decided which ones yet. Likely VL1000's or something similar. Thank you for your interest.

Hello Aaron,
Firstly, I would recommend visiting our website: http://www.indiana.edu/~thtr/index.shtml
Our professor of lighting design, Rob Shakespeare, does the recruiting for our area. He almost exclusively recruits from the URTA confrences held in Chicago and New York. You should contact him if you are interested in joining our lighting design program. I am the master electrician/lighting manager for the Theatre department and help to manage and enable the lighting elements for our graduate and undergraduate lighting students as well as manage the lighting infrastructure of the department. If you have additional questions for me after reviewing our website, I'd be happy to try to answer them.
