OK, Now What?

It’s the 50th episode of Casting Light, and we’re doing something different this time. With our business in flux and many people looking for some guidance, we’ve put together an incredible panel to answer the question, “OK, now what?” Reinvention, keeping abreast of industry changes, knowing how to nurture relationships, continuing education, and financial planning all play a part regardless of the state of the business, and our guests discuss all these topics and more on this episode. We’ve got Laura Frank, a top-flight lighting programmer who became a screens producer when she saw how digital lighting was going to affect the industry, ultimately building her own framework and systems to manage all aspects of media; Brad Schiller, who was one of the people who defined what the job of programmer was before moving on to develop consoles, manage products, and represent the biggest names in lighting manufacturing; David Leonard, who had a full career as a theater educator before moving on to assist the great design team of Jules Fisher and Peggy Eisenhauer, and then becoming a high-end real estate agent; and Marty Postma, who worked as a lighting designer and lighting director for music venues and on national and international concert tours for decades before becoming a sales manager for Robe Lighting. Be sure to check out Brad’s newly released book, “Living the Lighting Life: A Guide to a Career in Entertainment Lighting” in which he delves even deeper into many of the topics we discuss on the show.
