dominicgross Posted September 3, 2003 Share Posted September 3, 2003 Can anyone recommend some software for me to do my rigs and paperwork on: I've been looking at WYSIWYG, capture and others, the price seems to start at like £500!!! Something simular would be ideal - even better if they offer an educational discount? Any recommendations??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Posted September 3, 2003 Share Posted September 3, 2003 As a student, I think you can pick up WYSIWYG for £75 if I remember correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickLee Posted September 3, 2003 Share Posted September 3, 2003 Can anyone recommend some software for me to do my rigsUnfortunately, I think you still have to rig and focus yourself. ;) That'll be our next development, though, rigging robots. They "park" at the end of an LX bar when not in use, and when you want to rig something, they lower down, take a lantern in some kind of holder mechanism, raise up, move along the bar, and attach the lantern to the bar. They then use an arm to focus and point the lantern according to the commands issued them. Or something. It's an idea... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The robots for Intelligents Lights, will actually do the design themselves, before rigging, troubleshooting and plotting the entire show. This kind of idea however, will not be able to replace actors for several more centuries, while they figure out how to create 'intelligent actors'. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flicktech Posted September 4, 2003 Share Posted September 4, 2003 You could also try this program LX Designer not had a good look at it myself yet but our venue has just bought it with a 2 user licence for £100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalmatthew Posted September 4, 2003 Share Posted September 4, 2003 The biggest problem with LX designer is that according to there website it is only available in double user licences Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
