Overview
The 2ube extra was a 7 day festival in the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts PMA. The festival showcased a wide variety talent from third year musicians. My main responsibility for the 2ube extra was to design the complete sound system for the show, including Front of House and Monitor systems, while overseeing the Broadcast, Recording and Communications system plans, designed by Ryan Penny, Sam Brown and Sam Mannis. The planning for the festival began six months before the show ran in March of 2013. We undertook considerable pre-production planning to ensure the smooth running of the festival, which involved system designs, experimentation of speaker congurations and designs and cable wiring routes and solutions for an efcient instal and de-rig. The purpose of this portfolio is to provide an insight into the processes we undertook at each stage of the productionOverview
