iPhone Apps for Theater and Stage Technicians

iPhone Apps for Theater and Stage Technicians

Stagespot is starting to create a suite of I-Phone applications that will be helpful to our fellow lighting technicians.   We would love to put all information that technicians need to know in the palm of their hand. One application that can do it all.

The first tool we will be building in this suite is a color gel converter. Using the complete list from Rosco, Lee, Gam, and Apollo, this tool will be helpful in making the decision of what color and manufacture you can substitute for the color you just ran out of. The converter tool will be complete with a color swatch sample and a way to order more gel.  We are also toying with creating an application that will include a search-able list of gobos with thumbnail images from all major manufactures stock gobos.

The following are tools that we want to have included in this all in one application:

  • Gel Converter - Described above
  • Gel Cut Sheet Calculator - Determines how many cuts you get per sheet and how many sheets to buy to complete your plot.
  • Gobo Image Finder - Search-able gobos by category and names, with thumbnail images.
  • Gobo Size Finder - Answers what size gobo does my light take.
  • Lamp Finder - Answers what lamp does my light take.
  • Beam Calculator - Gives you information of how large your light will be at what distance.
  • DMX Calculator with dip switch-layouts - Helps you find next DMX address and converts to dip switches.
  • Power Conversions - Basic electrical calculations used in theater.
Any other ideas for tools you would like to see us include?Gary Weintraub Vice Presidentwww.StageSpot.com"Your friend in the entertainment business!"StageSpot logo
