Speaking at SATE (Storytelling, Architecture, Technology, Experience) Conference!

I’m honored to be doing a presentation on show control at the TEA (Themed Entertainment Association) SATE North America conference in October in Dollywood! “SATE North America is TEA's signature international conference bringing together the brightest minds and top decision makers exploring what's next in Storytelling, Architecture, Technology, and Experience in themed entertainment. “

in the theme of "exploring secondary regional markets in experiential entertainment”, my talk will be called “Show Control for All”.

Here’s my session description:

Show control is the array of technologies and techniques used to tie together entertainment control systems (lighting, sound, video, scenic automation, etc.) to technologically elevate, enhance and integrate storytelling in everything from theme parks to Broadway shows. While show control has its roots in big-budget theme park attractions, these days it can be found in everything from the smallest home haunts to community museums, and from live concerts to immersive theater productions of all sizes. The session will introduce the field, continue with a quick overview and history, and then give an introduction to the main types of show control and outline a system design approach.
