The Paramount Theatre is a massive Art Deco movie theater located in downtown Oakland, California, USA. Built in 1931, it was the largest multi-purpose theater on the West Coast. Today, the Paramount is the home of the Oakland East Bay Symphony and the Oakland Ballet, it regularly plays host to R&B, jazz, blues, pop, rock, gospel, classical music, as well as ballets, plays, stand-up comedy, lecture series, special events, and re-runs of classical movies from Hollywood's Golden Era.
The challenge tonight was to try and reproduce 1940's Paramount lighting. My daughter Lucy was the model.

I saw the first Star Wars movie at this theatre with my father. It was a big deal then. We had pizza before. People were dressed as wookies in the movie line. I think I was 11 but who knows...
The theatre is abandoned now, there's no more oil, and my Dad is dead.
Jesus... what a sad movie I got to star in.
Safety is paramount at Mardie Industrial. Every floor is equipped with paranormal fire exits. Just follow the signs. Rarely do we lose anyone in the crawl space. When it happens, we make sure they are not lonely or bored, and we talk to them. We like having poltergeists around. At night, we leave out milk. In 1908, we lost a lumberjack team up there but they assure us they are OK. We can hear them singing after midnight. They only know one song, mind you.

The first testimage made with my new Paramount MX+ is done.
I had a big change in the software because windows 7 is no longer supported by TheSkyX. Instead of buying Windows 10, I installed Linux Mint. "Kstars Ekos" can be used to control the camera, OAG etc. and TheSkyX is used to control the Paramount. Has worked well so far without Ascom.
