I am in the process of cleaning up, organizing, and arranging the light booth, catwalks, and elec. storage. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas for some important or cool schwag to keep in the light booth. I started a mini tech. theatre library. Two lighting books, The Backstage Handbook. I stuck a rosco gel swatchbook in there. I created the "Lighting Binder". A 2 inch zip binder which includes 2 different tutorials for our board, a quick reference sheet, several "Cheat Sheets", blueprints of the cats, rosco gobo catalogue, rosco guide to color filter, extra paper, pencils. I'm trying to think of things that are needed, and should be kept in the booth. Mini-fridge aside, do many of you guys store things like gobos in the booth? I was thinking about storing all my elec. stuff in elec. storage (an unlocked fire escape stairwell. Unfortunately that means organizing all of paint storage (grr, who blocked the barndoors with matte black paint?). So are there anythings you guys just couldn't live without in your booth? Anything that would make life easier for both the experienced user, and the novice alike? Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks,
Charlie
Here is the booth, in the worst picture ever. I am standing in the doorway, it's about 4 feet wide, and about 6 feet deep.
