    Conveyor Belt in raised deck

    Hi all,A few clarifying answers to these comments. 1) The effect we want is to have a movement of people floating out on to stage continuously. IE, the actor floats on Stage Right, steps off center and does their bit (meanwhile the belt is still running), returns up onto the treadmill and...
