It looks like you've got a great start on this program and it should be very good.
Other subjects/sections to consider:
Lighting:
- Follow-spots (if your theater is equipped)
-
Throw vs Brightness vs
beam angle (maybe this is buried in the Types of Light section?)
-
DMX vs audio cabling (especially if your
DMX system uses 3-pin
XLR connectors, assuming that you're using
DMX for lighting control)
-
DMX bus splitting and termination (and maybe wireless
DMX?)
Audio - This could get complicated depending on whether you're wanting to
cover audio in general, or just your
venue, but some additional ideas are:
- PAs vs Monitors
-
Condenser vs
Dynamic mics
-
Lapel/Halo vs
headset/earset mics
- Mic plots/handoffs
- Proper mic placement on actors
- (mic hiding techniques?)
Stage:
- Spiking set pieces
- Coordination of scene changes (especially if flying scenery)
-
Stage maps for each scene (if applicable)
Running a show:
- You may want to
cover some of the common roles in the theater, like:
Stage Manager/ASM, Director/AD,
Producer, Tech Manager,
Stagehand, Sound/Light Board operator,
etc.
- Backstage Comms usage and etiquette,
cue calling,
etc.
-
Cue Sheet examples for SM, ASM, MixerOp, LightOp, Follow-Spot,
etc.
- Major events for Tech:
Load-in/
Build,
Dry-Tech vs
Wet-Tech/
Cue-to-cue,
Strike,
etc.
For
LED lights, you can
pick-up some pretty cheap ones on eBay if you're just looking to teach the concept and are not terribly concerned about precise color matching or actual brightness/
throw.
