Nice videos Chris.
That hola hoop looks wicked. If that chick was working it better, the effect would have been pretty cool. Deko-ze looks like... well the only way he only knows how to look... outta control!

She does some neat stuff in the 2nd video. She's capable of some pretty crazy shit but probably not confident enough to attempt the crazy shit on the podium where the consequences of a failed attempt might be the hoop going flying and smacking somebody in the head.
Next time, if anybody walks up to her and tells her you're from TA and posting a video, I'm 100% willing to bet she'll go completely insane.

Thanks Kotsy!
Ive been wondering when I'd see videos from the back (Best View) for the lighting and especially the lasers. It seems the crowd at Beta want to be up close and front to the DJ rather than watch the DJ and the show provided along the side with it.
I think I need to make a goal to start meeting all the TA's that come to Beta, I cant make it out to weekend event since I never have one off. But if you guys ever need anything I can possibly do, feel free to ask. My lighting in trance is not the greatest... but i'm learning and getting better and working with the controller the best way I can till all is all fixed

A lot of this is probably the fault of the sound being suboptimal at the back. I like the spot at the back on the lower level above the 3 steps by the coat check because the sound is still good.
Also (I guess you have nothing to do with this), I feel like the DJ himself is suboptimally lit. It was hard to see Sander from the back. How could a guy like Armin ever play at Beta without a half-dozen white lights illuminating him? :P

I have some random questions for you:
Do you program the chases yourself or does somebody else do that?
Does the lighting computer get a sound feed? I know that this is sometimes looked down upon because of all the paranoia in the industry with unapproved recordings of DJ mixes floating around and all. It seemed like it was all running manually at Beta.
What in the hell happened at the start of Sander's encore in video 7? It seemed like the chanting started, then the lights matched the chanting, then sander mixed in to match the lights and chanting... did that actually happen?
