TECH CREW HQ:
CREATED BY TODAY's TECHNICAL EVENT PROFESSIONALS
FOR THE TECHNICAL EVENT PROFESSIONALS OF tHE FUTURE

Picture
Hi, my name is Leah and I am the creator of Tech Crew HQ!

With my company Inspired Productions, I have worked in many schools and organisations across NSW, Australia and seen the passion and drive that students in the technical and backstage crews have. 

Sometimes student Tech Crews are self-taught.
Sometimes they have a mentor or other team member leading them.
I created Tech Crew HQ online courses to give everyone the opportunity to learn from industry professionals. 

I have teamed up with industry professionals including Audio Operators, Lighting designers, Stage Managers and Event Managers to provide the most current knowledge and skills of our industry through Tech Crew HQ online courses.
Better yet, these skills and knowledge form the foundation of a career in technical live entertainment, theatre and the arts.

I have been in the live events industry for over 20 years, and worked in schools, concert halls, event centres, theatres and outdoor venues too. My true passion is inspiring the next generation of technical event professionals and equipping them with the best possible knowledge for:
 
- their next event or production
- and career as a technical specialist in the theatre, arts and live events industry.

I'm always striving to improve myself and the value of Tech Crew HQ online courses for people who are keen to learn more about technical events and live entertainment.

WHY TECH CREW HQ?

Picture
Picture
​Tech Crew HQ was created on the basis that people love to express their creativity in many ways and that technical theatre brings together technology, art, expression, creativity and passion.
​
Schools, churches, colleges, and arts organisations have a backstage and technical theatre team who supports productions, however not everyone has access to the skills and knowledge required to enhance productions and ensure the team are learning safe practices.
​
​Over our years of working with schools and organisations on their events we have seen a gap between the incredible enthusiasm of crews and the technical event learning available to them- so we created Tech Crew HQ!
​
Tech Crew HQ online courses provide easy to access for people to build their skills and knowledge across all aspects of backstage and technical production.


HOW CAN TECH CREW HQ ONLINE COURSES
HELP MY TEAM?


In our experience over years of working with schools and organisations, we have learnt that people relish the opportunity to be involved in all aspects of a production and take ownership when they are delegated with a specific role.
Often the most memorable times for backstage crew are during productions, plays and concerts.

Tech Crew HQ online courses provide industry knowledge and skills in an easily accessible format. With the skills learnt in Tech Crew HQ courses, your team will be more capable to provide technical support for productions and events. It also provides a base for future career opportunities in live events, theatre and the arts.

In person training can enhance your team's skills development and create a confident backstage and technical crew. Our team provides in person training in the areas of safety, lighting, audio, vision and stage management.
