Need some help? Ask me

[k6ccc]

I had knee replacement surgery 5 days ago, so for a while, I have a TON of time available - particularly time sitting in front of my computer.

So, if you need some help with something (particularly the computer side of it) feel free to ask.  As long as it's something I know well, I'm pretty happy to help out.  It will give me stuff to do....

It's been due for years.  Glad to have the first one done.

Doc tried the gel on the left one and it did nothing.  That was the last "checkbox" to try before the surgical option.

Hey Jim, The aches and pains of us growing "more capable" with age...lol. Happens to all of us sooner or later. I got so tired of sitting at home, retired, I up and took on a new retirement job with the government. Effectively starting a new career. Yep, I sure notice the aches and pains associated with it too. So busy in fact, not sure I'll even be able to do a show this year. Wife is hinting for me Not to do it. Anyway, rest, then get onto the physical therapy which will be important and you'll be better in little time.

Thanks Jim, that's the same as what I had about 3 years ago, I got a new tower the other day and can go higher but wanted to check to make sure I didn't go higher than my lights would allow.

What are some cool motion effect ideas for the RGB Frames kit (4 frames)?

I assume you are talking about the window frames kit:  https://store.lightorama.com/collections/director-run-show-traditional-pixel-lights/products/cpc-package-window-frames?_pos=2&_sid=14bf04ace&_ss=r&variant=43011873046773

 

I don't have window frames, and I do almost all my sequencing in SuperStar, so sequencing window frames in Motion Effects is not exactly my expertise.  However, I would think that the Marquis, sweeps and chases would be your friends.
