Eos / Ion Video Manuals

Hi Anne & Dave,

At PLASA this year, you indicated that Video manuals of Eos & Ion would be released soon.

Any News on a launch date for this this valuable item? Can I please order the CD/DVD now, as our bandwidth to download is USELESS & keeps re-setting, just when you have depeleted the national fiscus of Zambia in download costs, and now you have to start all over again, as it does not remember saving 96%.......................  

Video manuals are great 'cos you can refresh as many times as you want without annoying the instructor- Even in the middle of the night when you cannot sleep, because your mind is churning over with all 96 problem scenes the director has saddled you with, for the music spectacular the next day.

"Bring Back my Expression3 & Emphasis with Wysiswig". "I was just getting into it when this new fangled box of trix arrived, & I have to start learning all over again" is the cry for the black hole in the studio called Lighting Operations.

I thought my learning curve for Deal or No Deal on Emphasis was enormous 2 years ago. This is not a curve - rather a 90deg right angle up to a black infinity.......... No Lights up there yet.

Pleeeeez HEEEEEEELP!!!!! he cried, screaming off into the night............................ I need to know the console.........intimately...........NOW!!!

Hey Guys, what about some cool Golf Shirts that say "I have been "Ion-ized" to be presented to all who go on an official Ion Training course. Must be really "Larney" as this is a Prestige Item & must make people want to get one (of each - Console & Shirt)

We could also add something like - "Lighting Control was always an Oxy-moron until ION / EOS arrived"

Hey  Lighting Afficionados- Wanna see some great Lighting Effects - Google "Awsome House". or check it out in WWW.Office-Humour.co.uk .

Cheers

  • Hi,

     

    I hadn't seen this post before but.......  There are going to be several Ion DVDs coming out later this year.  We shot it the first week of January and are in post production now.  We actually just finished and released 2 DVD's for the Express line of consoles.  The Ion will be a great video set.  Look for previews in a month or so at www.dominantfield.com

    Cool,

    Please let us know when its available.

    Surely there is no call for Express training now that ETC is stopping production of the range.

    All the best. Thanks Dave for responding to the Queries............

    Are you forgetting about the thousands of existing Expresses (I've heard ~14,000--Can/will anyone verify that number?) installed in institutions that recruit novice operators regularly (schools, community theatres, etc.), which will continue to be in use likely for at least the next ten years?

    ETC has a history of supporting every product it has ever made--something very few manufacturers, of anything, can claim.
