QLab cue variety based on day of month

Let's say you have a production where you want some of the sound or video design to be slightly different each show.

You can do this with AppleScript using a script cue in QLab.

QLab serial projector control with AppleScript

If you are using QLab for video cues, I suggest having it triggered by the light board as most projections need to be synchronized with lighting. That way projected scenery will fade in and out with area lighting during scene changes. It is fairly easy to connect a USB MIDI interface between the Mac and the "MIDI OUT" of your light board.

Pneumatic Jack in the Box, Part 3

To support the mask I built a frame out of perforated metal tape. I basically fit each piece into the mask from the inside, then attached the pieces together with small nuts and bolts. The frame was then screwed into a stand made of three pieces of 1x2 wood left over from the torsion box coffin lid project.
