Students and Novice Stage Managers / Re: Labtop vs. Pencil and Script/Notepad

« on: Jun 09, 2010, 09:38 am »

I usually type my scripts. 

However, I do not type blocking annotations until later.  I always take notes on paper first, then type it all in later.  I feel that the computer is a huge distraction to the rehearsal process for a stage manager. Some people say that I do double the required work, but I find that this helps me to memorize and understand things.

Stage Management: Plays & Musicals / Re: Let's Talk "Places, Please"

i hold my actors to a very high standard....One of those things where if i say places its common sense to go there when i say so....and my places call has a five minute cushion so there should never be a problem.  I expect all to communicate and let me know if there is a problem. It is the ASMs Responsibility to communicate with me if there is an issue.

Personally, I block and then copy it that blocking is on the left and when it comes to tech week there is a blank cue page on the right.
