TH 2190 Lecture Notes - Lecture 16: Master Electrician, Rigging
Document Summary
What they need to know when coming into a space: they need to know all of the details of the space. Is it a school crew: what is the budget (materials/ labor, etc) Other important things: they need to have the ground plan of the set. This will help you to know what kind of fixtures you will need to use. This will show you how much space you have. This will tell you about accessibility (how you are going to get to the lights) This will affect safety and scheduling: if the td and the me are loading at the same time, you have to split up the stage and hang opposite of the td (one us, one ds) This requires a very good understanding of how long it takes to do something. Which also asks the question: how many people are hanging something at once. In general, the hang process is about one light per minute.
