The traps are coffin locked together, and each have four legs, which sit securely in a channel on steel I-beams. They are framed with aluminum, and topped with 1” Marine Grade Plywood, and 1/4" Masonite. A black marley dance floor 40' wide by 30' deep is available for rental from the Theatre Department. ORCHESTRA PIT LIFT Accommodates approximately 20 musicians. Operated from Stage Left or in the Pit with 5 preset stopping positions: • Level 5: at stage level • Level 4: 2’ 6” below stage level (house level) • Level 3: 5’ 0” below stage level • Level 2: 8’ 4” below stage level (pit entrance level) • Level 1: 8' 11" below stage level (trap level) The pit automatically stops at each level when moving, but can be stopped and safely used at any height. It takes approximately 30 seconds to travel from level 5 to 4, 30 seconds from level 4 to 3, 45 seconds from level 3 to 2, and 10 seconds from level 2 to 1. Please note that the Pit Lift is for equipment only. Under no circumstance will people be allowed to remain on the pit while it is moving. LOADING IN/OUT Access to the stage is via an enclosed underground loading dock (12’6” clearance) capable of accommodating tractor-trailers. The entrance to the stage is approximately 200’ down a straight hallway which has a slight slope down to stage level. There are three sets of 5’10” wide x 9’6” tall doors. Since this loading dock is shared with another building, vehicles may not stay at the loading dock. A temporary parking permit must be obtained by your sponsoring organization in order to park on campus.

  • John's List of Tech Theater Terms
    Department of THEATER & DANCE Office of the TECHNICAL DIRECTOR Tech Theater Terms file last updated: 7.29.2010 (JDE) All information contained in this document is original material copyright © 2005 by John D. Ervin and is intended for the use of my students. Please contact me at [email protected] for permission to use this material in any other way. This is a work-in-progress and will be occasionally appended. Apron – The portion of the stage or playing space that is downstage of the proscenium arch. In traditional proscenium-style theaters, acting on the apron was a big “no-no” because it violated the stage picture being created by the proscenium arch. Thus many older theaters have very shallow aprons. Nowadays though, Directors can’t get enough of having their actors as close to the audience as possible; despite how uncomfortable it makes some audience members. This is all done under the umbrella of ‘intimacy’ and we all know how much artists love that stuff. Sometimes the apron is referred to as the “Forestage”. (See Figure 1 and 2) Arbor – Part of a fly system. A device mounted in one of the wings, which is connected to the lift lines at the opposite end from the batten. Stage weights are stacked on the arbor to balance the load suspended from the batten. In the case of a counterweight fly system, a rope hand line is connected to the top of the arbor, passes sequentially through the head block and tension block, and is terminated to the bottom of the arbor, forming a loop.

  • Fill in the Blank, Multiple Choice, Short Answer • Costume Design Usually Involves Researching, D
    Costume/Set Design notes – fill in the blank, multiple choice, short answer Costume design usually involves researching, designing and building the actual items from conception. Four types of costumes are used in theatrical design, Historical, fantastic, dance, and modern. Designs are first sketched out and approved In its earliest form, costumes consisted of theatrical prop masks The leading characters will have more detail and design to make them stand out Scenic design (also known as stage design, set design or production design) is the creation of theatrical scenery. Scenic designers are responsible for creating scale models of the scenery, renderings, and paint elevations as part of their communication with other production staff. Theatrical scenery is that which is used as a setting for a theatrical production. Flats, short for Scenery Flats, are flat pieces of theatrical scenery which are painted and positioned on stage so as to give the appearance of buildings or other backgrounds. Soft covered flats (covered with canvas or muslin) A fly system is a system of lines, counterweights, pulleys Improv Notes – short answer Describe what shapes the action of an Improv scene? Audience suggestions or unknown topics List two things that make Improv different from traditional theatre? The elements of spontaneity, unpredictability and risk of not knowing if the scene will work out Why do you think there is no guarantee that an Improv scene will work? You never know what the suggestions or topics will be ahead of time List at least three ways that an actor defines the reality of the scene? Giving someone a name, identifying a relationship, identifying a location, using space object work to define the physical environment Describe what “Blocking” means.

  • Basic Principles and Techniques of Lighting
    Lighting 102 Basic Principles and Techniques of Lighting by John J. Rankin VINCENTLIGHTING.COM 1 /" -Ê"Ê-/ Ê/ The following criteria should be used to determine if stage lighting is necessary and effective. £°Ê 6- /9 Visibility is a very important function of stage lighting. The audience should be able to see exactly what you want them to see, or not see those things that should remain hidden. Therefore, we might rename this function as “selective visibility.” An example of selective visibility can be found in the play, Wait Until Dark by Frederick Knott. A blind woman is terrorized by a murderer hiding in her apartment. To even her odds against him, she smashes all of the light bulbs thus plunging him - and the audience - into darkness. The action is revealed verbally and occasionally visually with flashlights, matches, and a very surprising source of light at the climax of the play. Ó°Ê , 6 /" Ê"Ê", Similar to selective visibility, revealing the form of the actor, dancer, or speaker will make them stand out from their background. Using techniques described later in this article, you will be able to make the subject appear natural and be the focus of attention for the viewers. For example, when lighting a ballet it is important for the stage lighting to reveal the form of the dancers. The audience wishes to see the dancers move through the space and stand apart from the background. Lighting ballet has been described as “lighting fish in an aquarium.” Light is the same as water in this metaphor.

APRON The part of the stage deck* that is downstage* of the proscenium*. APRON STRIP LIGHTS This is a band of lights – usually blue - that goes from one side of the stage to the other, just upstage of the stage deck that covers the pit, so that when the pit is open they warn a performer (who can be blinded by the production lights shining in their eyes) where the edge of the stage is. Some apron strip lights have a small red light in the middle, which dancers can use for spotting, and to let all performers know where the center stage line is. ARBOR The framework that holds the pig irons* that counter balance the weight of anything hung on the battens* in the counterweight system*. ARM The strip of stage deck* that protrudes out along the wall of the house* alongside the front part of the seating. BACKSTAGE The area of the stage deck* that is hidden from the audience’s view, either by drapes* or set pieces.

  • Lights and Lasers May Be Used As a Visual Effect
    PURPOSE 1 Stage lighting has multiple functions, including: • Selective visibility: The ability to see what is occurring on stage. Any lighting design will be ineffective if the viewers cannot see the characters, unless this is the explicit intent. • Revelation of form: Altering the perception of shapes onstage, particularly three- dimensional stage elements. • Focus: Directing the audience's attention to an area of the stage or distracting them from another. • Mood: Setting the tone of a scene. Harsh red light has a different effect than soft lavender light. • Location and time of day: Establishing or altering position in time and space. Blues can suggest night time while orange and red can suggest a sunrise or sunset. Use of mechanical filters ("gobos") to project sky scenes, the Moon, etc. • Projection/stage elements: Lighting may be used to project scenery or to act as scenery onstage. • Plot (script): A lighting event may trigger or advance the action onstage and off. • Composition: Lighting may be used to show only the areas of the stage which the designer wants the audience to see, and to "paint a picture".[4][5] • Effect: In pop and rock concerts or DJ shows or raves, colored lights and lasers may be used as a visual effect. Lighting design is an art form, and thus no one way is the "correct" way. There is a modern movement that states that the lighting design helps to create the environment in which the action takes place while supporting the style of the piece. "Mood" is arguable while the environment is essential. 1) Selective visiblity: The #1 function of light is to see, to illuminate, to make visible to the nake human eye.
