      Assistant Lighting Designer

      Using the WYSIWYG CAD platform to assist the lighting designer in producing documents which contained all the correct control and circuit data. I then relayed this information into the lighting control system based on the Grand MA platform. Once in the venue I had to ensure that the plans were followed and all connections and patching was correct. It was then my responsibility to operate the said lighting equipment again using the Grand MA platform.
