"Great video on the use of uplighting to lightup the area around the DJ Booth while the house lights were up, at the same time not really using lighting effects to project onto the crowd or dancefloor. 5 stars, successful experiment!"

The Back-Story goes something like this: Tim, a DJ/accounts manager in Helsinki, Finland decides to kill some time at his day job by checking out some Youtube. Then, from behind, he hears the sound of his boss's (I think it's his boss) voice say: "What's That?" Thinking he's busted, he stutters and says "Oh I was just watching some DJ videos, I'll turn it off." Just as he clicks off the screen, his boss says "No, put that back on! What IS THAT?". Tim - "That's The DJ Tutor" Boss - "Wait, is that.. I KNOW THAT GUY!" Tim - "No, you wouldn't know him. He's the DJ Tutor in the States" Boss - "The WHAT?" Tim - "DJ Tutor. Lots of DJs watch him all over the world. That's Brian S Redd.." Boss - "I KNOW who he is. How do I contact him?" Tim - "Oh shut up, there is NO WAY you know DJ Tutor...." Practice & N-Joy!
