Goodtimes Festival

During get-in week I toured the festival site and was able to look behind the scenes as to what it takes to put on a festival of this size. I had previously  contacted the co-founder and lighting designer/operator to arrange shadowing opportunities. 

On Saturday evening I shadowed the lighting operation for Will Young’s set and was given the opportunity to operate half of the show. This required learning an entirely new system on the fly, quickly understanding fixture layouts and their functions, and adapting to live changes. 

The experience significantly broadened my knowledge of busking techniques and enhanced my ability to respond to dynamic show conditions.
