A sample of the work I do for my school using a CAD program for lighting design (for school plays/concerts)

I can turn this:

Curious? If you do not mind........
Maybe I should PM this but I do want to know. Maybe Namloot would too.

What are the wattages of the differants cans?

Are they connected to a buss system suspended sustem or what?

Are these 277v lights?

Do you get ANY feedback into your control systems? [ non-linear vs.linear loads ]

How are your service feeds sepertated for the lights, controls and sound ?

Sorry don't mean to drill you - but I am an enginnering type kind of guy. Putting this kind of stuff together is very cool and fairly complex.

Thanks- very impressive after school project.

All I ever did after school was go shoot guns at the lake and drink cheap beer.

500 to 1000Watts.

Not exactly sure what you mean by 'bus or suspended' sytems.

Standard 115V lights.

Feedback? I don't know. We've really never measured.

Service feeds. Hmm. We have a main feed which gets seperated into the auditorium's standard feed (for work lights, power outlets), the lighting feed, and an audio feed. It's a very powerful main feed that can do all of this without overloading the system.

What other stuff would you like to know? I may not be as technical as you or anyone else, but I know my stuff when it comes to the specifics of the things I work with.

I was taught how to use an autocad for designing houses in highschool. I did some funny stuff. ^_^
Also used an autocad for bridge design.

I agree. I am just curious. I would believe that you know
what you're doing, otherwise you would not be doing work on projects like this in school.

This looks like a proffesional set-up all the way.

Umm. Last year (Junior year), the last 5 months of school. Now my partner and I are the heads of it all after the last two were doing it for all 4 years and graduated.
