- As the first weekend of our Coachella 2022 show run for Louis The Child neared closer, the team spent a week in Las Vegas dialing in all of the technical aspects of the show to make sure everything is in order.
Sadly, I am not out in the desert this year, but thank you to all the hard working people making their artists shine.
Thanks so much for your patience as I continue to work through the backlog of videos that were shot, but never made it to CZcams (for various reasons) over the last two years. More to come, and soon!

Thanks so much for your patience as I continue to work through the backlog of videos that were shot, but never made it to CZcams (for various reasons) over the last two years. More to come, and soon! Sadly, I am not out in the desert this year, but good luck to all of the teams out there doing their best to make their artists shine.
Great to see new content, hope your keeping well!
Do you by any chance have any lost lands videos planned? I saw you there in 2022(?), wanted to say hi but you seemed very busy. 😅
@@reallyweirdperson1 I do not think I have enough to make a LL video, usually those larger scale shows are very stressful when I am there in a run and gun capacity with an artist. Not a lot of spare time
I love these Coachella videos, it's already such a great Music Festival. Watching as y'all work as a team to make the show in Las Vegas, one of my favourite festivals.
the editing with the music when cutting the pipes is so funny
I really enjoyed it :D
As LDs we live for those 08:03 moments 🤩It's so nice to see that though you have been for some time in the industry around, it still amazes you and that you can still enjoy what you do! You are a great role model for every young and becomig LD like me - I am still learning a lot from your old MA2 tutorials. Greetings from Germany! :)
Seeing Christian looking at how the cable must be turned at 2:29 is healing my soul. No one have to be ashamed amymore.
Thank you for your informative channel and those Coachella videos. So happy to see the stage again, as I was there that year as LED tech for the show bringing those 10 big robots backstage! So nice to see the setup again in this video :)
Madmapper have exactly the tool you are describing at 5:40. It's called Led Scanner.
interesting, i'll have to check it out
@@christianjacksonwhat @tacojesus5 said!👆
I haven't used Madmapper in a loooooong time but I immediately thought "I bet it has that feature" lol
+1 for this
I loved working the Broadcast side of Coachella back in 2022. This series is bringing me back to the month i spent there. (broadcast has a week of setup, 2 weeks Coachella and stagecoach festival the following weekend) Good times! Hope I get the chance to go again.
Thank you for these big scale videos, I'm about 6 years into the event scene as a technician and seeing these videos, understanding more and more of what you are actually doing makes it even more impressive
I am not a lighting tech. I do absolutely nothing with lighting for my work. But, I can't help myself from spending the time in full to always watch your videos. You make me really appreciate concert lighting from a whole new perspective. Can't wait to see more.
He's back baby!
As someone who is getting into working as an LD professionally, seeing all the behind the scenes of your work is so inspiring. I've started with P3 also and every week i learn a new way to do things. Cant wait to start integrating NDI on my MA3-file with P3 to the fullest!
Keep up the great work!
Awesome work as always! I always enjoy your behind the scenes sort of videos. Getting insight into how you do a show has helped me grow and get better at the work I get to do. Although I will never do anything on such a grand scale, I am proud of the work that I get to do. Thank you for helping this small time lighting dude grow his skills.
I'm so happy you're back Christian. What a treat this channel is and what a great video. Forget the 1% and focus on being this kind of awesome. Bonus trivia. Bought my Capture license a few weeks back (using Onyx and a NX Wing) May it help me become a fraction of what you do. Looking forward to part 3.
So happy these videos are back
Another excellent video - thanks for doing these!
Great video! Glad to have you back🔥
Love the videos man! I’m stoked to have you back posting content again! I could binge watch your stuff for hours! lol
So good to have you back on here dude. There's a part of me that always wanted to go into this field and while I didn't (yet?), experiencing a sliver of it through these videos is so fun.
this video put a lot of work behind the scene, so stoked for another video
The insta360 angle is the best part about waiting for these 😆
Nice vlog. Thanks sharing
I could watch a whole season of it
Pozdrowienia z Polski, jesteś świetny i cieszę się, że wróciłeś na youtube!🤩
I live in Vegas and see the Ivanpah everytime I drive to California! Its cool seeing you take such an interest in it, wonderful video! :)
I was there in the crowd for WK 1! It was amazing!
Man this job is so alien to me. So many tools and processes i have no understanding of. Very cool.
The whole pointing a cam at pixels to automatically pixel map is a thing but patented by Twinkly lights. Each pixel just flashes their # in a combination of RGB.
Enjoy watching
Your designs and programing are so so good thank you for your content very informative!
As an upcoming and beginner LD this is very helpful thank you very much sir please keep it up.
A programming lesson on MA would be great too.
I've attended a lecture by the people who designed those colorful arched towers at the very beginning of the video and at 12:31. I knew they designed that for Cochella but for some reason i was surprised to see it show up in the wild.
Cool architecture firm, Architensions
Everytime I watch one of your videos I wish would be summer tomorrow. Had enough of the corporate winter :p
2 years ago at prolight and sound I talked to a company that has software to map crazy stuff with a cheap Webcam. I cannot remember their name anymore, but it definitely exists.
6:03 twinkly does that for their smart home Christmas lights
The lasers are my favorite
MY GOD
Madmapper does have a feature where you can use a camera for pixel mapping exactly as you described. I've not tried it myself yet though.
Mapping the sceptrons in Resolume - wasn't there an option to import a picture as a guide and overlay that within the mapping window? Haven't done the exact same thing before but it feels like that'd allow you to roughly get the layout and alignment correct (orientation wise) which you could then possibly scale as you see fit later on?
Think that might work as a quick rough guide to get it all started after which you could do some fine tuning.
there is, but it's not useful in my instance when fixtures are not physically related to the ID on the plot. it had to be built as was physically possible, so it would be about the same amount of time either way.
Are you doing any of the lighting for beyond wonderland at the gorge? I am going to it. I currently have a job doing lights for a church using a chamsys quick q 30 and a bunch of chauvet rogue r2s so seeing lighting at this scale in person will be super cool
Woot
Been missing these videos! 🫶 Glad to have you back 🔥
The software you wished for at 6:00 partially exists, there's a project for 3d christmad tree lights which mapped those pixels in this way... but it's pretty buggy
I want to do this kind of stuff badly. Where do I even start????
Why did you choose to map the sceptrons in resolume and not output the video content into the p3 and map the fixture within p3?
May I ask what the lasers used on the side (not the bars, the regular ones) are ?
on week 2 are u doing the lighiting for le sserifam?
link that pipe cutter bro, i need one of those lol
In the rendering is that everyone in the crowd filming on their phones? 😂
WHAT IS THE PORPUSE behiend cmd crashme could u explaine more to me please
how to setup tilt wing + dimmer up ? you hepl me ?
I'm 14 and I hope to be an LD when I get older. Do you have any advice on how to get started?
Start in a shop learning what goes with what and what makes a lighting system work, Learn how to put a lighting system together, then learn how to engineer a system, Become a very reliable and good ME/PE that will make you a better designer in my opinion... Learn how to delegate local hands you'll be dealing with multiple personalities all of which will think they know your system better then you, you should not even react to this.. Remember you engineered it, labeled it, etc... Be respectful and kind especially with riggers and house elecs.. as well as the hands.. learn to lead, and trouble shoot, your name will get around, you'll constantly be hired but as this happening get your hands on a console, learn as a programmer/director even if you're just updating presets and operating an existing show you're still learning... If you can do that then get into designing... This industry is highly opinion based most will critique the ones that matter will hire you. This will make more sense as your career progresses.. best of luck just don't quit stay with it!
@@kylejames7040 Thank you very much. I already have a good understanding of how DMX works from using it in my christmas light show to volunteering at my high school. I now just need to find a place in my area to get to work.
6:00 ye i've been thinking about smething like that too, i don't have a good pixel mapping program (or more than dot2 onPC) tho because i'm still 17 and can't afford ****, but i'd love something like tha too, shouldn't be too hard to make on my own and reliablity isn'T THAT much of a concern beacuse its only or setup and not the live show
hey, what kind of earbuds do you use to cancel out some of the sound to not get tinnitus?
i have custom IEMs and plugs from 1of1
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Hi Christian, there’s a few tricks on the Martin P3 System Controller that would have made your life a lot easier here (MVR import being one of them).
Next time you’re using anything P3-driven, feel free to reach out for some tips and tricks that will definitely save you time.
Best Regards,
Wouter (from the team at Martin)
And yes, you CAN change all the DMX modes at the same time on the P3. No need to do it one by one.
good to know! i only use it on relatively small shows and some of the techs setting up the system dont know how to use them either aside from patching and identifying. which is a frustration of itself.
also, i believe that at the time this video was made those features didn't exist quite yet, which explains a lot haha.
@@christianjackson ow yes!
The MVR import/export is pretty new.
i want those laser bars, i NEED those laser bars, i also want an ma =)
I was thinking the shop kind of looked like our shop in vegas called AV Vegas. unfortunately this was filmed before I got a new lens for my drone czcams.com/video/rJsfKDoTFVM/video.htmlsi=-glHbthvnfRYNCA1&t=35
Do you like freestyler?
never used it, so no idea.
Freestyler is only good for the handy artnet to dmx tool lol
ахахахахах🤣
0.5 is vastly superior.
