Simon recently visited Confetti College in Nottingham to run a training workshop with over 40 students on the Technical Events (BTEC) Level 3 Extended Diploma.
The course teaches young people the ins and outs of the live events industry, from PA systems and rigging to lighting equipment and techniques, as well as recording, mixing and stage management.
The day kicked off with the students building an impressive lighting rig and patching their fixtures. Simon then led a demo of the Wolfmix W1 and WING before giving everyone hands-on time across five dedicated demo stations.
The students’ feedback centred on how accessible and easy to learn Wolfmix is compared to other lighting control systems they’ve used. That’s exactly why it’s a great tool for programmers of every experience level.
Supporting education, youth projects and young people starting their careers in lighting is incredibly important to us. We’re proud to be part of sessions like this and look forward to running many more. 🐺
