We have a potential requirement for services of someone living local to Birmingham over July next Year 2022 at the Commonwealth games… (If we get it... We are tendering by the end of this week).
We have a new three year old FLX with monitor (only used twice)!
Basically we would need an operator to program and save a sequence of fountain jets as part of an overall show which will be to control a minimum of 22 switches via DMX switch packs (our Stock) and (possibly the same amount of Waterproof lights which again we have) and some other triggered wet effects.
I think initially we would be given some direction from the creatives as to the sequence, length and complexity of the scene and then they will edit it on the fly during rehearsals so this will mean some quick programming changes.
The idea is (as I understand it) the show will be run from the main show control via SMPTE time code once rehearsals are complete. But they require manual back up programmed into your desk in case of time code failure and some quick programming during the rehearsals as directed.
We estimate we will require someone on site at the Alexander Stadium B42 2LR ready for programming from the 7th of July with live rehearsals through till the night of the 28th July which is the Opening Ceremony, So potentially three weeks. (We assume there will be some down time during the scheduled run through’s).
We imagine we will be under cover somewhere. There will be at least 2 of us there plus your programmer during these times.
Do you live around Birmingham?
Is this something you can do for us?
If you could give us a price ASAP to operate and any other associated costs for 3 week period as a starting point.
