    Making a Cyc

    Just got around to checking the price on fabric from Rose Brand that kicknargel suggested, we would need 10 yards in width (30 feet wide stage) and since it only comes in 128" the other length, we would need two of 10 yard sheets and sew them together which would come too $302 which isn't bad at...

    Making a Cyc

    Hello,We recently put on a production of Footloose! The Musical last weekend and we had rented a cyc for the show as we don't own one but do have sufficient lighting to light one. I really enjoyed how it looked and it really gave the stage more depth which was great because we have a pretty...

    Unsafe safety cables

    That's good to hear, I had never done any math on it but I had always thought that one of the safety cables we (and I am pretty sure are the most commonly used?) use could withstand much more then the force of one of our fixtures.Generally what we do is loop the cable around the batten and...

    Techie sayings

    Question for TDs of high schools or high school crew members...

    We do not do very many outside events, however when we do, the person there does not get paid, officially. Now before I explain this I'd like to say that in the last year we have been re-working how things are done and who's allowed to do what, etc. Also this is the first year there has ever...

    Wizard of Oz - Beginning and End of Show....

    It may not be possible for you depending on your cast size or you just might not want to do it this way, but when we did the show, we had two actors/actresses for those scenes. One night the 'Kansas' cast would stay in costume for the Kansas scenes and do some other background parts, and the 'Oz...

    Check it out - new website for my facility

    Perfect :) I'm getting the same drop box positioning problem with Chrome as well. All I know is that every time I design websites, a lot of things that work fine in I.E. don't work anywhere else, and things that work everywhere else don't work in I.E. Good Luck :)

    horizontal fly system?

    The voice overs look pretty poor in the video :/ I suppose if you're in the audience you couldn't tell much though. I like how Gustav has a mic on but he isn't actually talking :p
