Session Description
It is so easy to perceive technical excellence as something unattainable. At the foundation, excellence is a mindset more than a function of the equipment your church owns. Learn key principles for "doing the best with what you have", about building and equipping your technical team and how to lead-up to your church leadership. Nathan will draw on his experience as Technical Director at Centre Street Church in Calgary.
Nathan Picklyk
Upon completion of an undergraduate degree in violin, Nathan became interested in the technical side of music and production and went on to complete a Masters of Music in Audio Engineering at McGill University. Following this formal education, he worked three seasons with the Boston Symphony Orchestra as an Audio Engineer, and several years as Technical Arts Director with Rivers Edge Community Church in Montreal, Quebec. Nathan's educational background, combined with his work-related experiences, have afforded him many opportunities to assist in bridging the challenging gap that is often found between artists and technicians, facilitating healthy working relationships that allow each to work towards their common goals. Nathan presently works at Centre Street Church in Calgary, Alberta, as a Technical Director. Nathan's wife, Deanna, and son Emerson, both do a wonderful job of ensuring that he is not at work seven days a week!
