Stage Management: Plays & Musicals / SOUND: Sound Manipulation

« on: May 15, 2005, 11:33 pm »

Hey all -

I'm looking for a cheap and effective way for actors to manipulate the sounds of their voices onstage.   I have a rectangular stage space and I'd like to be able to place something around the stage in different locations to give the actors the abilty to enhance/change vocal projections.  My director and I can't seem to come up with anything that works.....any ideas?

Thanks!

SMNetwork Archives / Question about SM finances

« on: Jul 15, 2004, 12:14 am »

Hey all -

I have a dilemma and I need some advice.  I'm currently a stage management student transferring from a community college to a 4-year-program.  I got into a few schools, but my favorite is going to leave me with close to $42,000 in debt.  My question is this: can I afford this school based on a stage management salary?  I know the amount SMs are paid can vary greatly, but in general would I be making enough to afford this education?  I am in love with the program this school offers, but my father is convinced I'd be making a terrible mistake.  Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Thanks!
