Contemporary Worship - Lighting

Setup

Always

Turn on the 3 switches backstage for the moving fixtures, wash, and cross lights.

Turn on the lighting computer. Log in.

Launch the Eos Family application from the desktop. It will open the welcome screen, then automatically load Eos.

When Eos launches, the lighting console will immediately take control of the lights. The wall panel keypads are not operable for light control when the lighting console is in use.

The left screen displays a magic sheet with shortcuts and a map of the stage lighting fixtures. The right screen displays the current cue list.

For Basic Sunday Operation

Click the blue Base Cue List button on the top right of the left screen. This loads cue list 1, our standard Sunday service base cue list.

Verify that the color of the uplight wash (5 lights located behind the drums aimed up at the curtain) matches the current liturgical color. The colors are as follows:

Christmas Day to Epiphany Sunday: White

(Epiphany Sunday to Lent: Green)

Lent: Purple (can also be blue)

Easter to Pentecost: White

Pentecost: Red

Pentecost to Advent: Green

Advent: Purple (can also be blue)

For Full Sunday Operation

Whenever possible, we try to match colors on stage with the motion background(s) of the current worship song. At present, Roan will program this when he is at services, but otherwise, we use the base cue list.
