Default Re: Where do you call your shows from? (High school especially)

At my HS it was a bit whacked out, there was the director, LX op, SND op, and often some other random teachers who decided to join in. and there was no communication with those on the floor. the LX and SND was run seperately... no prompt copy or anything of the like. I was "SM" on the floor, but was basically an ASM, running the scene changes etc. with some crew for help etc. to communicate with the bio box (booth) during the show, we had to go outside the hall, in the foyer, then up a ladder, through the green room, then in the back door to the bio box... :\

At Tafe i guess its a more standard setup; LX op, SND op, SM in the bio box, then one or two ASM's on the floor. For our current production we have a "set co-ordinator" instead of an ASM, but they're essentially the same. The AV and Dome op's are on the balcony, but they shouldnt be talking on cans, only listening, so that should be good
