On Sunday, February 9 from 9AM-2:00PM, Allen Williams will be leading a breakout focused on boom operating practical application. This class is entirely all break out. No lecture portion at all so you'll be on your feet all class. Wear footwear and clothing with this in mind.

Be advised this class serves as a part 2 to the Jan 26 techniques class so if you're a novice or never boomed before (and didn't attend the Jan 26 class) this is not the class for you as it will be expected that you either attended that class or have experience booming. We will not be doing a detailed recap of from the Jan 26 class but rather building on it with practical application.

We will have performers there, along with basic camera and lighting equipment, for you to practice boom techniques with. Because this class is not one on one, you will not be hands on with the performers on set the entire time but you'll learn a lot watching the interactions there with other classmates. Depending on class size you may be practicing some techniques in smaller groups when not working with the performers. The class will be tailored to the needs of attendees.

It is strongly recommended that if you have a boom pole, microphone, etc, that you bring it. You will want to bring a good pair of listening headphones regardless. There will be wireless transmitters and a mixing set up so we can listen to what's practiced on the fly if needed. This class will be focused more on mic and boompole handling essentials and technique than how to be a boom operator.

The Deadline to RSVP is Friday, January 24 at NOON! There will be no charge for this class and it's available only to 479 and other IATSE union members in good standing. Guests are not permitted.
