Console Cocktails Video Podcast
This Podcast series is a bit lighter than the other training videos. The concept (suggested by a fellow lighting programmer) was to console tips learning with cocktail recipes. I understand that this combination sounds a bit obtuse, but it really seems to work for our industry subscribers. iPhone/iPad users: View with iTunes or on Youtube.
