Thank you for keeping up with the news. It is great to have a place to help keep up with the lighting news of the world. It can feel pretty lonely sometimes here in Connecticut.

Hello all!
I am a recent Show Production and Touring graduate from Full Sail University who is continuing on to get my bachelor’s of science in Entertainment Business. I have worked with Vectorworks Spotlight quite a bit and would very much appreciate the “Light Plot Deconstructed” book.

I feel sort of out of place among all of these students and recent grads, but I’m a freelance designer in the Los Angeles area, trying to make the leap out of hand drafting (I know, I know…I’m a relic). Love both sites, and thanks for keeping me in the know!

They used to teach us VectorWorks at the University. For a week, haha.
I think I also visited the VectorWorks stand at the Frankfurt fair last spring, being surporised at how the program had evolved meanwhile, now looking as if I would actually use it. I have no idea, if i would only remember, how.
Life is meant to be easy, maybe winning books in a draw should be, too.

Hi iSquint! I couldn’t take the VectorWorks for Lighting course this semester because of a required Genetics course. I’ve heard amazing things about this book, and I would love to have the book as an extra push to keep up on improving my CAD skills independently. Thanks for holding this contest, you and JOL are both such amazing resources, not to mention awesome guys!
