The "Pick and Mix" format has been designed to make the event as flexible as possible to those with work commitments. The event is free and food and drink will be provided. This year the theme is Digital Scenography. With the use of video projection and other digital media becoming more widespread in Theatre, the worlds of video and lighting are converging. The aim of the Forum is to raise awareness of this equipment and it's use, and discus how it is going to affect designers in the future.
Workshops throughout both days will provide taster sessions with digital projection equipment and techniques. Projected Image Digital and Green Hippo will be running sessions on Pixelmad, Catalyst and Hippotizer.
Members will be able to register for workshops. The sessions are limited to a maximum of five - six people and they are on a first come first served basis. Workshop spaces are limited so booking is advisable.
The companies have suggested that participants may want to bring there own content such as a short Quicktime movie or a Jpeg image to these sessions to allow them to demonstrate how to achieve a certain look or answer questions.
Lunchtime discussion groups and presentations will be held between 13:00 - 15:00, and will provide an opportunity to hear from professionals who are using this new technology. Each day will conclude with evening drinks.
The forum will take place at:
Rose Bruford College,
Lamorbey Park,
Sidcup,
Kent.
DA15 8TH
Parking is available onsite or there are regular trains from Charing Cross or Cannon St via London Bridge.
