Lighting Changes

Part of media is managing the room's lighting. Where possible we automate this, but here are some guidelines we try to follow

• During pre-service & countdown
  • stage lights are off
  • house lights are bright
• During worship
  • stage lights & wash lights are on matching what is on the screens
  • house lights are dim
• During greeting/offering
  • house lights are turned up somewhat
• During videos
  • the stage lights are off, and the house lights are very dim
• During sermons
  • the stage and house lights are both on
• After service
  • the stage lights are turned down

Shutdown

1. Turn off the lights using the ProPresent macro
2. Quit ProPresenter & Blinderkitten
3. (Asheboro only) Press the Off button on the bottom right of the touchscreen light controller, you'll hear a series of clicks from the translation booth shutting off the power to the lights
4. Click Apple Icon on top left and Lock screen
5. Ensure stage screen (TV) is off

WARNING DO NOT SHUTDOWN THE MAC PLEASE. We remote into it throughout the week to prep for the next service
