FAQs
1. Will there be a license provided?
Yes, there will be licenses provided to each participant.
It will be a full version of Resolume Arena 7 valid for 5 days.
You CAN use it for event if it falls within those dates.
2. I have registered, can I pay on the day?
Unfortunately, to help with our planning, we require advanced payment to book your slots.
3. Do I need a new or specific device just to run Resolume Arena 7 ?
Yes & No. For this workshop, we need you to have a PC/Mac that meets the minimum requirements as per the link below.
Refer to this > https://resolume.com/support/en/tech-specs
For professional use, I would advise getting a device specific for LED and Projections as that would be a controlled device without any additional softwares etc.

I have used Resolume in various productions in all scales large, small and huge.
Productions such as rave parties, theatre, annual dinners (of course) & concerts to name a few.
I specifically enjoy using audio triggering to sync live music to the effects that are being displayed.
Of all events, my favourite job to do would be New Years Eve countdowns where I have only 1 chance to trigger “Happy New Year” at the stroke of midnight.
