Module 2 - lighting operator
Hi, I’m Sanzhar.
If you’re reading this, you’re probably already part of the live event world. Maybe you’ve been pushing boxes, pulling cables, or setting lights for a while. You’ve seen the operator pushing faders during a show… and thought:
“One day, I want to be the one running that.”
This is your next step.
Operating a live show is a challenging role. You are no longer just part of the setup crew — you are making the show happen in real time. Every cue, every fade, every flash of light is in your hands.
This module is for you if you:
- Already have basic experience in event lighting or AV setups
- Want to move from setup to operation
- Are ready to take responsibility for running the show
What You’ll Learn in This Module
