What is a Special Event? A Special Event is an assembly, demonstration, display, festival, parade, or rally conducted by a person other than a ceremony, gathering, or press conference conducted by a person authorized by the head of a state agency using the agency's own office space.

STREET CLOSURES AND RESTRICTIONS
An Applicant who wants to host an event that will involve closing a public right-of-way or a state- maintained right-of-way (street, sidewalk, or alley) must request permission from the applicable City’s Transportation office. In addition, ADOT will require an application for an Encroachment Permit if freeway ramps or right-of ways are closed. City of Phoenix: www.phoenix.gov/specialevents
ADOT: https://azdot.gov/business/Permits/encroachment-permits Street closings and placement of barricades/signage on public streets and right-of-ways must be coordinated with and approved by the appropriate City.

To ensure that Applicants are in compliance, the approved barricade company will be responsible for placement and removal of all barricades and signage before and after an event.

Theatrical lighting designers have never had more power to choose colors, even to the point of subtly changing hues on the fly during a show. However, with this capability comes a responsibility says Cory Pattak, the host of the popular design focused podcast “in 1: the podcast.”
Now that they are freed from the task of choosing gels long in advance of a production and can dial up a rainbow anytime on their LED fixtures, say Pattak, designers must be careful, not to overthink their color choices or paint the stage with an overabundance of hues, just because it’s possible.
Speaking to us from his New York office, Pattak, whose recent credits include colorful musicals like Singin in the Rain in São Paulo Brazil, In the Heights at the Olney Theatre, the national tour of Flashdance and multiple productions of Newsies, spoke to us about the complexities of color in theatrical lighting.”

From the Humble Beginnings as the Maker of Garage-Made Guitar Amplifiers to Today’s Leading Brand of Professional AV for Live Sound, Cinema and Corporate Installations Worldwide, QSC Moves Forward to the Future
Costa Mesa, CA (January 04, 2018) – 1968 was a year of seismic change across the globe. Fifty years ago, unrest was fueled by civil rights movements in the United States and protests and revolutions in Europe. Technological innovations included the introduction of the 747 jumbo jet and the first humans to orbit the moon, in Apollo 8. In music, as the Beatles sang ‘Hey Jude’ and the Rolling Stones rocked ‘Jumping Jack Flash’, the company known today as QSC was born as Quilter Sound Things in a small industrial building in Costa Mesa, California.
The original focus for QSC was hand-built guitar amplifiers; the company only later transforming and evolving to become a world-leading brand in power amplifiers. “Our early vision was to take over the world with high-powered, giant guitar amps, but we missed that boat and refocused our efforts on power amps,” said Pat Quilter, QSC Founder. “Since the beginning, QSC has always focused on staying close to our customers, which is the foundation for the company’s success.”
