✨ The magic of Show Calling is more than just calling cues. ✨ As a Show Caller, I take pride in delivering clean, tight shows that leave audiences inspired and clients thrilled. My background in theatrical Stage Management and Lighting Design helps me craft those wow-worthy moments that take events to the next level. But here’s the thing: it’s not just about the show. Every moment on-site contributes to the experience. From the way I walk into the room to the seamless flow of rehearsals, the details matter. 🔹 Is the timer running? 🔹 Is the right play-on music playing? 🔹 Do the screens look crisp? 🔹 Are the DSMs configured properly? 🔹 Are pathways clear? 🔹 Do speakers have the information and equipment they need? 🔹 And so much more... These small details don’t just set the stage—they help clients and speakers feel confident and at ease. Because at the end of the day, it’s not just about the show they’ll remember—it’s how you made them feel throughout the process. #EventProfs #ShowCaller #LiveEvents #EventProduction #StageManagement

Auditioning for a composer role on a film, TV show, or game? Start with a clear understanding of the director’s vision. Ask for two key resources: conceptual files that reveal their inspirations and soundtracks that serve as style guides. This approach ensures you’re in sync creatively, so you don’t miss the mark with your initial ideas. Establishing clear expectations around musical style and instrumentation in the first meeting can make all the difference. Proactive communication and understanding the director’s preferences are essential for a successful collaboration. #composerlife #videogamecomposer #collaboration #musicbusiness
