Hi all, I've been a member of this forum for a while, but created a new account because some people I work with use this resource and I don't want to make it known that I'm looking for a new opportunity yet...
I've been working as atd/master carp for a small producing theater for 2 years, and worked as a carp on overhire gigs for many small producing theaters while in school for technical theater. I was on the box pusher call list for the local union, but I don't have a lot of experience in any of the other areas of this industry. I'm looking to branch out and was thinking about trying to find work in a scene/production shop.
Does anyone here work for this type of company? Could you offer any insight into the differences in operations between an independent shop and producing theater? Do they follow the same sort of production processes/build schedules? Like I said I've never worked in this kind of environment so any insight will be helpful.
Thanks everyone
