New text layer Ok seriously think I maybe need to hire an editor 😂 who agrees Sorry about the errors in this one, will be posting a link to an unlisted version 2 without those uhhh mistakes
@yaa moirangcha I would say a decent quality green laser as the beam will go further and be fairly visible. Definitely something of decent quality because the one I got died. You could use red but it doesn't show up quite as well or go quite as far. After all green is usually used for pointing out Stars and driving airplanes crazy.
So your job is one people dream of having but then have nightmares about. It is filled with the most amazing scenes and also the highest anxiety!! But man I truly can appreciate what you do after watching this series. Thank You For Sharing Your Journey Brother it was truly an amazing art to watch.
I have been with you for awhile. Its really awesome to see how you have grown!!! In the begining, you taught me how to diagnose and fix fixture problems, now your running huge festivals!!! All i can say is AWESOME! Keep on Keeping on my friend!!!!
Whoa, Rocca is actually born in the same city I was (Curitiba, Brazil). Lots of LDs and DJs from Brazil actually came from here or live/lived here. Its very cool to see that the art we do connect more people that we cant even think of!
Looks amazing! I've been doing lighting for a theatre group and it's really cool to see where things could one day lead. I've jumped in the deep end with virtually no experience and am pretty proud of what I've done so far in such a short time. Way more fun than I expected.
Hey! Love this series! Do you plan on making a video of the creative process of designing a stage? Would be soo interesting! Thanks for your vids , love them
I might be able to build/create a big stage where i am at, like in my big outdoor property and stuff like that. Not a huge massive stage or a medium size. A small size stage that can probably fit like 2 up hanging ' Short ' Line-Arrays speakers and also some DMX Lights and also my DJ Set. I can't really explain or think of it all...
I was out in Shanghai a couple of years back doing sound/lighting, fascinating place! The view from the top of the Bund tower is immense...!! It's also great fun working out technical problems with local people, you always get there in the end yes, somehow!! Great video!
Wow, I am a small time DJ in Australia just going through some decisions around DMX programming hardware and software options..... Your world is next level times 1000+!! Thanks for the walkthrough of your setup days.... Very inspiring.... if I was not so old LOL!
You are both Patient and Meticulous , while being completely understanding and Calm of the reality of your situation. This is why you are likely a "Go to" name/LD in your industry.
Wow, this reminds me of gigging in Jamaica for Reggae Sumfest and other festivals in the Caribbean back in the early 90's. (Genny guy not paid, funky gear, etc.) As for the carni-rific strap on the cross-bar, I feel ya. When I lived in Guangzhou, I was invited by another lighting company to come see one of their shows. I had to hold my mouth closed at what I saw ... It was a rather sizable stage *_and_* sound/light/video rig built *_completely_* out of bamboo! I hope you got to ride the MagLev train to and from the airport!
I've just seen this trilogy six months delayed, I have to take my hat off to you for your patience in such an environment! Well done on the main stage design, very nice, I did like the second stage more as an innovative design though. Keep up the good work! Editor - yes, and less wobbly bodycam...
Hi Christian! Big fan of your videos where I do get to learn a lot of MA2 stuff. One thing I'm not getting any smarter with is using wings. I see several operators and people use wing just by using /wings=2 or similar to create pretty cool symmetrical effects. Whenever I try that the wing spreads out across multiple LX's or when I (for example) add fixture 1 thru 12 (spots) and fixture 13 thru 24 (washes) to an effect where the washes are placed in between the spots where 1 is most left and 12 is most right... The wing will ofcourse start off at fixture 1 and 24... I'd love to see a detailed video about this stuff and maybe some more cool, easy, handy effect related stuff. 👍 You're a legend.. Keep up!
yeah thats basically how the problems at all of our events a school look like. no just kidding we have problems like getting the equipment to late from the rental company or having not enough time to set it all up cause we're getting bigger and bigger with our setups. last time we went with 12 lacoustics kara (2x5 main rigging, 2x1 front fill), 4 KS28, 2 SB18 (used as x-over in rigging) and 6 x12 for monitoring. For light stuff we went with 12 JB Lighting P7, 8 Robe Spiider, 4 JB P18, 8 SGM Q-7W, 12 ClayPaky ShowBatten100, 16 TourLED 42cm and a GrandMA 2 Light. We had one day for all of the setup. The event was on the next day but we needed the time for the soundcheck with the bands and all the other stuff. Even though it was very stressful, we managed to finish in time and it was a heck of a lot fun. love your videos:)))))
amazing stuff, and dont let a few mistakes bring down your confidence, you dont make them often and i like your editing style, the only reason id agree with you getting an editor is if the time spent is too exhausting for you, but if not, keep doing it yourself, your great!
@11:29 the strips blue and green have different speeds somehow, it's in the light blue chase, but when it turns off it goes dark blue for one or two pixels at the end of the chase. Ah good old china fixtures. This and that delay on some of the moving heads you talk about later is why I can't deal with china lights.
Christian Jackson last fest I worked with my crew was northern nights and fuck my buddies couldn’t Tec lights till the day of show , such a short pull off but as you said , shows always come together last min basically haha
It reminds me of my work, I wish I could understand all the videos you share , love from Vietnam , I’m lighting too , but I am a supporter 😅 , I want to learn more from you
Just wondering: On shows like these. If there was a DJ using a timecoded show. How would he know what fixtures are used? As i don't think the DJs will create a new Timecode show for each gig , right?
This kinda makes me want to try to get into event technician again but I think my current goal, paramedic, is the way to go for me. 😁 But seeing this really makes my heart scream a bit 😣
next time you do something this size and complexity, put one of your consoles on a case on stage and run out 100' of Cat5 and save yourself that walk to FOH every time you need to check something at the desk.

The new text layer was the best part ;)
Made me laught too haha
No editor needed, I like your edits
You’re doing great no editors for you as always 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
well, there’s your next twitter name
You need a laser pointer with a visible beam. Would help with communication when pointing out things that are far out of reach or at a distance.
@yaa moirangcha I would say a decent quality green laser as the beam will go further and be fairly visible. Definitely something of decent quality because the one I got died. You could use red but it doesn't show up quite as well or go quite as far. After all green is usually used for pointing out Stars and driving airplanes crazy.
@yaa moirangcha Wicked Lasers cells some quality stuff.
Hello
you need haze for a visible beam, no matter what color the laser is
@@rev_dude Not true, dust or even moisture in the air is usually enough.
I really like the go pro footage, just so easy to see what you see
loved it. so proud of what we made. the show went on!
Good job!!
this is awesome
Wow interesting seeing you here. What happened to the DP analysis videos?
“We need to make sure hes vibing with his other buddies”
*vibing ;)

So sweet to get an inside look on what being an LD is like at this level! Thanks for the content, Bro!

27:07 seeing all that kit under the stage was incredible! Thanks so much for this vid!

This is a fantastic stage! Congratulations on a successful build and show. I am absolutely not surprised you ran a rig this big.
21:55 I think this is an absolute universal truth right there.
Also you sitting along through the morning.
The very definition of "work hard/patry hard" right here. Love your work mate
Awesome job on the lights! 25:50 very cool.
Can this be classed as a true Christian Jackson vlog even though there was no pizza? 🤔😂
No toilets = no pizza I guess!
Wow, it’s fascinating to see behind the scenes of such large projects, thanks for sharing
Wow that stage is wild! Nice to see the conclusion of this series, they were all great to watch. Thanks for all the interesting videos 🙂
Hey! Love this series! Do you plan on making a video of the creative process of designing a stage? Would be soo interesting! Thanks for your vids , love them

this is so cool to watch. so much goes into festivals and it’s really fascinating. the whole festival eco system is so interesting
Thanks for watching :)

Its a big stage Christian. Following you man
how tired u was while cutting this vid? some parts are twice :D
Wow, I am a small time DJ in Australia just going through some decisions around DMX programming hardware and software options..... Your world is next level times 1000+!! Thanks for the walkthrough of your setup days.... Very inspiring.... if I was not so old LOL!
Dude these blogs are everything !!!
I love seeing the before and after! Awesome dude
Not sure how I got to this video, but I found it very intertaining and informative.
What are the movers cartwheeling from 21:29-21:39. They must have infinite pan, right?
You are both Patient and Meticulous , while being completely understanding and Calm of the reality of your situation. This is why you are likely a "Go to" name/LD in your industry.
this was really interesting video I really enjoy watching this!! keep them coming !! :)
"insurance policy" i hope it had nothing to do with ensuring you were going to get paid
Nice vlog Christian! Keep up the good work! 🔥
Thanks!

This looks way fun. Do you have a vlog describing like, how you got where you are today in your career?

I actually bought 3 fog fury Jett pros due to this video, I love them soooo much. They are such an amazing effect!

22:02 that is so dope man
I love these, keep them coming
So what was your take on the Chinese lights? they aren't the standard quality lights like Robe/ClayPaky/VL/GLP to name a few..
10th of the price is a major factor here
duy nguyen Robe
@@VintageSeanTV my thought exactly
Super entertaining series!
Just a big dumb audio guy here. I'm amazed at your composure when shit hits the fan. Great moves keep it up.
Love your job
allright ;) looking forward to it :)
Finally
15 mins to go.
Damn the stage is increddible! But there are so little people!
Yeah that was rather unfortunate
Love your Videos! Keep it up! Greetings from Germany

Ah good old china fixtures. This and that delay on some of the moving heads you talk about later is why I can't deal with china lights.
Absolutely love that you do these vids, hyped to see the Zomboy vlogs
Hey man, excellent video, fascinating stuff.
LD and production work is the best stuff to do
Agreed!
Christian Jackson last fest I worked with my crew was northern nights and fuck my buddies couldn’t Tec lights till the day of show , such a short pull off but as you said , shows always come together last min basically haha
11:05 there is an orange clamp securing the the structure, Its safe and done proper. Who knows why the strap is there but it is not doing anything.
Amazing, congratulation.....
It’s so interesting to see how people trouble shoot the lights before the show! And it’s shocking that this amount of problem will happen.
I have no idea what you're talking about but cooooooool
The this show lighting tech stuff (happily) means nothing to me, but its still fascinating and very watchable, great tech vlog.
i second that
It’s finally here!
was wating so long for the next episode
Damn that is a beautiful stage
Can you tell me. How do all the LEDs light up to the music?
Looks like a fun job.
What is the white lights spinning in the start of this video, anyone knows? :D
What was a brand of those lights, splitters etc? Do You liked it?
23:57 i didn't know q-dance prompted to delete all showfiles from the consoles 😂 why's that? i mean they're the ones who put up the show, right?
Thanks for this deep insight into the show
what is a power house stage?
What kind of lazers you using?
Am I the only one that comes back now and then to watch these again?
Those gobo projections are badass
Nice stage.
But why do all light jockeys use all light fx *at the same time* ?
Sometimes, the stage is bright like on a sunny sunday afternoon...
Christian, Where I could find MIA Festival fixture list?
What the song in 22:02?
great sir
I want more Haze. MORE HAZEEEEEEE!
matze media and more cowbell.
amazing content! congrats!
It reminds me of my work, I wish I could understand all the videos you share , love from Vietnam , I’m lighting too , but I am a supporter 😅 , I want to learn more from you
22:58 ok so how are these song(s) called, the build up thingie and the hardstyle part?
23:55 - had me laughing! 🤣
wicked video
What are the hazers?
Hi im interested in stage lighting. By anychance will you come to Australia??? Great video!
Just wondering: On shows like these. If there was a DJ using a timecoded show. How would he know what fixtures are used? As i don't think the DJs will create a new Timecode show for each gig , right?
I wish I had this job
how i can update or install grandma3 on pc?
FINALLY!!!!!!!!
Anyone know how you'd do the effect from 21:25?
wings at -2 +2 in a p/t circle and play with your groups.make sure you have symmetrical groups,otherwise it wont work
@@yannickstok1240 yeah, I got a similar effect working with an offset circle on an Avo but couldn't get the symmetrical bit working
wow thats a lot of work
All worth it :)
This kinda makes me want to try to get into event technician again but I think my current goal, paramedic, is the way to go for me. 😁
But seeing this really makes my heart scream a bit 😣
Did you used Terbly lights there? What kind of lights you used there for this show?
Now that a few years have passed, care to share more about that insurance policy of deleting ALL of the show files?

How did you get this work and where can I do that to because I like that lighting and everything about that
