Applications Now Available for ETC's LDI 2011 Student Sponsorship

Now is your chance to apply for ETC's famed LDI Student Sponsorship: Graduate students and senior undergrads studying lighting design, theatre technology, or a related field are eligible to win one of the open spots to attend the 2011 LDI tradeshow, October 28-30, in Orlando, Florida.

ETC put the application online this year at www.etcconnect.com/LDI-2011. You can fill out the application electronically, or print it out and mail it in to ETC. The deadline to apply is May 6.

The all-expense-paid trip is a great way to gain experience, see the inner-workings of the lighting industry, and do some networking, the company says. ETC covers the costs of round-trip airfare, hotel accommodations, meals, LDI conference passes, and exclusive swag, and hosts a student reception where you can meet industry luminaries -- lighting designers, educators, consultants, journalists, and employers -- and connect with peers. During show hours, you will get a behind-the-curtain look at ETC and its newest innovations, and a front-row seat to the latest developments in entertainment technology.
