With the L&S Supervisor, the production electrician will create a rigging plot with point specifications for all booms, light ladders, dead-hung battens, or other rigging components pertaining to the production's lighting. Routing of correct cabling to all DMX-controlled devices (XLR5, XLR4, XLR3, etc.).Placement of all DMX-controlled power supplies (i.e.Placement and universe assignments of all Net3 Gateways, as well as specifying supplying network port connections.The production electrician is responsible for supplying control data to every DMX-controlled device in the production. Efficiently scheduling delivery can prevent excessive clutter in and around the theatres (space is often at a premium). In conjunction with the audio engineer and L&S Supervisor, compile a prioritized list of equipment required for the production's prep period. Cable: XLR5, XLR4, XLR3, Cat5e, Edison, waber strips, UPS, etc.Rigging: shackles, roundslings, steel slings, turnbuckles, chain, batten clamps, etc.Iron: sidearms, unistrut hardware, scenery bumpers, etc.Pipe: lengths, hardware, boom bases, cheeseboroughs, etc.Control: consoles and accessories, computers, wireless dimming, networking equipment, gateways, etc.Special Effects: atmospherics, strobes, etc.Accessories: color frames, gobo holders, top hats, barn doors, irises, etc.Followspots: number, type, frame load, hardware.Moving lights: number, type, gobo load (as per design team).LED fixtures: number, type, lens information as appropriate.Ideally: specify hanging hardware counts on fixtures (c-clamps or sliding tees). Conventional fixtures: number, type, wattage.S/he should then prepare a shop order to present to the light shop assistants and the master electrician. The production electrician should obtain the lighting package from the network and the completed set of drawings from the designer. Compile a list of prep tasks and a rough timeline for the prep period.Compile a plan for safely rigging the show, in conjunction with the L&S Shop Supervisor.Complete a circuit plot and circuited Lightwright paperwork file.Compile a shop order and delivery schedule.When the final plot is turned over, the production electrician will accomplish the following: At this time, the light plot will be turned over to the production electrician and any remaining questions or concerns will be addressed. The Final Light Plot meeting will be a conversation between the lighting design team, the lighting design mentor, the Lighting and Sound Shop Supervisor, the production electrician, the master electrician, and the assistant master electrician. Count number of necessary circuits in each position to determine the feasibility of the design given practical considerations (s/he does not need to create a final circuit plot at this time, only determine if there are enough circuits to hang the show).
Budget is to be approved by L&S Supervisor before any purchasing takes place.
This will give the lighting designer and the lighting design mentor an opportunity to assess the current design prior to a meeting with the technical personnel.Īs of Fall 2015, the Preliminary Light Plot meeting will be a conversation between the lighting design team, the lighting design mentor, the Lighting and Sound Shop Supervisor, the production electrician, the master electrician, and the assistant master electrician.
