November 2013 through to March 2014 I was working with Stage One on the epic scale Sochi winter Olympics opening ceremony. My role on the project over the 5 month period had various facets from facilitating electronic installs for the automation systems to writing custom software to allow the video & lighting department to interface with automation data. The whole period threw up may technical challenges, and in particular one occasion where a storm flooded many of the automation carriages electronics and we had to run a night and day shift to fix and replace many components 40m in the air to be ready for technical rehearsals. Through determination and teamwork, and against the wishes of the minus degree weather we got the system show ready in-time for rehearsals.
