I already work in the industry around Sydney. I work for Australian Crewing, frequently working with Chameleon, Norwest, Staging Connections, Opera Australia and any of the other big production crews.
Can read a plot, run motors, set up lights and their DMX universes etc operate simple lighting boards (and confident I could pick up more advanced systems), set up audio no worries and operate a sound desk and do the audio live, build truss (got my podger handy or if global, my hammer), have a stack of electrical tape in all colours complimentary mostly from Chameleon (thanks), and can most importantly liaise with seniors and work well in a team.
I frequently work venues such as Fox Studios, the ICCS, Qudos Bank Arena out in Homebush, Carriageworks in Redfern, Sydney Town Hall, Byron Kennedy Hall, the Riverside theatre in Parramatta, Capitol Theatre, the State Theatre; and many many more smaller locations for more cosy gigs.
Hope to hear back from you,
Cheers
