Homer High School
Homer HS has an active theatrical and musical department Which had been operating in an outdated facility. Working alongside a team of engineers and architects, AVL undertook a complete renovation of the auditorium facility. Primary goals included improving room acoustics, providing functional catwalks and lighting galleries, new audio, intercom, video, and theatrical lighting systems. Early in the design phase, locations for the catwalks and lighting galleries were conceptualized, which was a structural challenge. Once they were developed everything else had to evolve around these structures. Using angled panels as well as absorptive and diffusive wall Materials, an acoustical design was fleshed out to make the room appropriate for music and theater. An electronic acoustical stage shell was designed into the space to avoid conflicts in the stage rigging that occur with traditional stage shells. New technical systems were developed to meet the performance needs of the school. Digital audio, lighting, and video controls with wireless remote interfaces were used for control. Techs can now work from the booth or I Pads in the room. Products from ETC, Strand, Midas, Crestron, Christie digital, and JR Clancy were used in this project.
