Here’s a great resource I want to pass along for my techie friends. Really, anyone who workings with lighting equipment will like this.

Todd Proffitt, a blogger who writes about Theater lighting has compiled a massive list of iOS and Android apps designed to help with lighting and stage direction. The list is organized by category covering a wide range of subjects including:

• Reference
• DMX Calculators
• Gobos
• Remotes
• Stage Directions
• Knots
• Beam Calculator

Currently, the list is available as a GoogleDoc Spreadsheet, which you can access here: bit.ly/theatreapps

What a great resource! I first heard about Todd's list on Leo Laporte's national radio show, "The Tech Guy". In the future Todd hopes to share this list in a different format, but I'm just happy he decided to compile and share what he has now.
