Students and Novice Stage Managers / Re: Injured during tech?

« on: Dec 12, 2007, 12:10 am »

The thing is, most colleges have a procedure that they must follow if and when a student is injured. I've had my share of accidents and even though Tech rehearsal is not the best time, the TD should have called Public Safety, made a report and had you taken to see a doctor. It becomes a liability for the college if not taken care of. Like a stage hand before me at my school. He got a splinter during rehearsal, but took it out and didn't say anything. It was pretty deep, and the next day, he woke up and couldn't get out of bed. That kind of thing needs to be take care of regardless of how it effects things. Safety is the number one rule that must be obeyed after all...

I've had a hard time figuring Google Sketchup out. I had it on my computer last year, but never could get it to work for me...

Tools of the Trade / TurboCad

« on: Nov 25, 2007, 08:10 pm »

Hello! I've been looking into computer programs (among other things for the theatre) the past few weeks, and was wondering if anyone has used TurboCad? If so, is it as useful as it looks? I'm on a Mac, so many programs that are useful when it comes to set design/ground plans aren't compatible, at least that I've seen. Are there any suggestions for other ground plan programs? Thanks in advance!
