How to become an LD – Steve Irwin



Ongoing learning is a big part of being a Lighting Designer.
Besides the technical lighting knowledge – learn about managing your time, communication and dealing with difficult people. Read books or listen to audio books – you can do this during your commute or when you are cleaning around the house. People are willing to teach you things they know. Once you learn something new don’t forget to teach it to someone else.
