Lighting College
The Lighting College at DJU has a special blessing in that the material in here will primarily be written/taught by the lighting experts at Chauvet. It will be covering everything from how to light up a prom or a school dance into production level for large scale band concerts. Plus it will cover material like the advantages and disadvantages of traditional type lighting vs. LED based lighting, trussing, cabling and of course DMX and control of the lights you have invested in. If you have ideas we are very interested in what you are wanting to see here, please submit them to dju@mobilebeat.com.
