The contest offers a chance to win a new MagicQ MQ70 console
UK - Lighting console manufacturer ChamSys has announced an online programming contest - the ChamSys Online Programmers Competition.
The competition is open for entries until 10 April and participants will be in for a chance to win a MagicQ MQ70 console. The first 25 entries will also receive a MagicDMX Test Kit, and the three runners-up will get a ‘premium swag bag’.
For the competition, ChamSys is utilising Chauvet Professional’s 200-fixture rig that was meant to premiere at the now-cancelled Prolight+Sound 2020 tradeshow.
To participate, entrants must download the Vis/Base show file of the rig, select a one to three-minute song of their choice, and programme the lights using MagicQ with MagicVis visualistion.
Entrants then have to record their entries via screen capture and submit them, along with the show file, to competition@chamsyslighting.com by 11:59 pm US Eastern Time on 10 April. The entrant’s name, location and mailing address must be included in all submissions.
The judges evaluating each submission are Max Koehler and Ryan Warffuel of Antic Studios, Phil Watson and James Harrison of ChamSys, and Michael Graham of Chauvet Professional.
