Skywalker Ranch Technical Building

1988 (David Carroll Electronics)

This was the flagship project for DCE and really put us on the map. I was just starting DCE when I was contacted by Lucasfilm regarding an engineering position. I politely declined, indicating my interest in helping them build in a contracting capacity. We ended up being the prime supplier for audio and video wiring and infrastructure.

The industry took note of the project as well. Check out this Mix Magazine article: [PDF file]

Customer: Lucasfilm Ltd.
Project Engineers: David Carroll, Stephen Sutter
Installation Supervisor: Michael Stocker
Scope of work: Audio Video infrastructure and equipment design and installation
Subcontractors: Two out of house assembly firms

	A Mixing stage.		Scoring Stage. We went back in after the mix rooms were done and installed the Neve console in here along with another local machine room.
	The cable in the floor of the Central Machine Room. Blue cable is 26 pair. Yellow is 8 pair. Green is 16 pair. Red is 4 pair. Why? Because it looked nice. If you like it too, here's more pictures of wiring.		One of three (or four... I can't remember) audio cross-connect walls. Total Telco-like flexibility in audio routing... just bring your punch tool! If your feeling punchy, here's more.
	One of several beautiful birdseye maple patching credenzas we designed and built, filled with Audio Accessories patch bays. But they're more than the average credenzas... more.		Part of the site crew More crew pix
