Copying Scenes to Cue Lists

Hi Folks:

I suspect this is a newbish question, but im not sure how to go about this. I have been through the manual section about scenes and cuelists and I have created a couple of scenes in my scene directory. I would like to be able to take my scenes and copy them - in a specific order to a cue list so that i can assemble a cuelist to run a service.

Im not sure if im attempting to do this the right way, or if there is a better approach. I am WIDE open to any / all suggestions of the right way to do this.

What I want to achieve is this: I would like to assemble a library of pre-defined "Looks" (some people call them cues, or scenes or presets) so that I can (ideally) either call them directly during a service, or assemble them into a cuelist to attach to a master so that the service can be run by hitting the GO key at the appropriate time (with the use of masters possibly for over-rides).

I initially thought that constructing my scenes (looks / whatever) in the scene directory was the way to go and then either playing them directly from there or copying them into a cue list, but its not working (they dont seem to arrive in the cue list) so im not sure where to go from here

I can gladly supply more info, if I've not been clear here

Thanks to all

  • Tom -- sounds excellent - I'll definatly continue to ask questions. In my real job (teacher and IT manager for the school my church runs), I deal with open source software a lot, and so I'm used to the whole community support idea (I realize that HOG3PC is not opensource) and it looks like you folks have done a good job replicating that here -

    Just out of curiousity, which of the visualizer programs do u recomend (if you are allowed to do that) it would be cool to have it in place as we plan our new rig so we can visualize how things will look etc. I have less than no knowlege of that aspect of lighting design etc.

    thanks
