Brodsworth Hall Lighting

Camel Event Production are using the Apollo Ensemble system over the next two weeks to help it light up Brodsworth Hall near Doncaster. As part of the Enchanted Gardens event, the Apollo system is allowing visitors to take control of lighting the main house.

Camel are testing the latest version of the Apollo Ensemble, which will be released in the new year. It incorporates some additional lighting control elements and tools to increase flexibility. For the house lighting they are making use of the auto-fader block that allows a switch to control a preset fade.

MRI - Interviews

As part of the MRI project (Me, Myself and MRI) we need to interview each of the project participants and record this - both audio and video. I've been volunteered as the interviewer, so I'm doing my best Michael Parkinson impression for the project. Luckily it is just the interviewees that are being recorded.

The questions have been selected by the group and seem to be doing a good job at finding out about our participants. You can see the results early next year when we launch at the National Science Learning Centre.
