Uploaded Forms / Large Spaced Line Notes
« on: Nov 14, 2012, 02:11 pm »
Multi-page format (1 page for each actor), good for small shows up to about 4 people (in my opinion)

This is a format I developed after working with a couple different ones from this thread. I like it because it gives me a large space to write out the error and correct line because when I start to scribble the line note down to keep up with the show my handwriting tends to get a little bit large....

Hey all,
     Long time reader of the board, and recently I've transferred into the BFA Stage Management program at Rutgers in New Jersey. A quick bite off of my theater background is that I've been involved backstage (never been onstage, and preferably will never be) since the 6th grade. Have been in various positions on SM teams basically since then including high school, and some community theater at college. I'm currently in tech as the ASM of Doubt: A Parable, we preview tonight, open tomorrow, and run this weekend.

     I transferred from Rutgers' IT program so I have a pretty large computer background and am constantly looking for ways to automate the process (on my mac) of paperwork, forms, and what not. I also worked around with a website (currently at jerryksmith.com) because I like to code, it helps relieve the stress of life (kinda weird I know).

    So that's a quick picture of me, I'm excited for the things I'm going to learn at school in the coming 2.5 years before I graduate and the great people that I'm going to be able to work with. I'd also like to thank this board for being in existence because it's already saved my butt on more then one occasion, whether it be a form, or a more simple explanation of some odd concept. So that's all!

I recently published a professional website at jerryksmith.com which I created myself (from scratch) in Dreamweaver,  as I have a bit of a web design/development background. As for hosting I use, webhostingpad.com where I got a pretty good 10 year deal for a little more then a hundred bucks. (I think that promotion is still running)

Recently I also had the idea of using that site as a basis for electronic call boards for shows but I don't have a system like that up and running yet, and we'll see how that goes in the future after some research and experimentation.

Hi all,
     I'm currently enrolled at a drafting course at my university as part of my stage management studies. We recently covered tools in class and a shape template was mentioned. I found this interesting because I tend to differentiate my cues in my book with shapes. After some research I found that templates come in a variety of shapes. However, most templates come with shapes of a bajillion different sizes and I'm only in need of one. After a lot of googling I have yet to find anything like this for stage managers.

     My question to the forum is if anyone has found anything like that, or has suggestions on how to make something like a shape template. My stage management class this semester has us making a fake book so I think this would be a perfect opportunity to try it out. Thanks in advance for any and all help!
