Tools of the Trade / Re: [FAQ] Electronic Prompt Copies
« on: Jun 17, 2010, 05:38 pm »
I've started to do a promt script with blocking on OneNote. I've set up my minis on the right with the script (with page separations) on the Left. It seems to be working out well! I can draw the arrows and place letters wherever I want them. It seems to be working out well - having blocked 30 pages so far, I'll let you all know how it goes!

Students and Novice Stage Managers / Re: What DO we Do?

To answer the question "what do I usually do as a SM?"

Call Board, Props lists, Calling cues, Contact sheets, blocking, attendance, Costume Sheets, Design Requirements, Rehersal and show notes, line notes, blocking notes, production meeting notes, leasion between actors/techies/director, Kit holder, Schedule organizer, prompt book, collection of forms and money for t-shirts, and thats all I can think of at the moment.

I guess the thing that is bothering me the most, is she got the AD job beacause she didn't make the show, and then proceeded to cry about it to the director. But, hey if I must work with her, I am willing to compromise and deal with it, It is not the only show in the world I will ever SM.

Students and Novice Stage Managers / Directors: What DO we Do?
« on: Aug 20, 2006, 02:51 pm »
I am currently in high school   *woo...* and our director is going in a new direction and trying out a Assistant director. He is now trying to tell me that she will take blocking notes, do attendance, and deal with the actors.

I am just curious of what you all think the definition of a stage manager is. What responsibilities that should go with that and so on.

I am willing to compromise with my director and give her some responsibility, so she is able to learn, but not my entire job. I need some advice, and also what you think stage managers do in general.

Thanks ~Kristina~

College and Graduate Studies / College advice
« on: Aug 12, 2006, 06:25 pm »
I am now a senior in high school and now have that wonderful task of choosing where to go to college. I was wondering what kind of degrees each of you think are the best to go into theatre.

I was also thinking about going to a community college, and then transferring to an arts school, or another 4 year college. Also, I live in the Midwest, so perhaps if you know of good places to go near here that would be great, but I am not opposed to going out of the Midwest.

I am just a bit lost in what I need to look for, and would love for some advice, and what you did to help you be successful.

Thanks
~Kristina~ ;D
