Step by step guide
- 1. Step By Step Guide_______________ Before using the drama studio you must makesure that everything is present for sound, projection and lighting: Lighting: In the rig there should be 10X CCT Fresnels w/gel frames. In order to make surethat these are situated correctly and are rigged correctly, you MUST make surethat all the following are present and done correctly; Step One: Plugs: it is very importantthat all plugs are properly plugged into the sockets, if the plug isn’tin correctly then there is a health and safety risk. When you go to plug it back in and it’s not going in at all please make surethat there is no objects in the way of the sockets. If this still hasn’tworked you should then go and the college technician. Step Two: Safety Chain: the CCT Fresnel’s in the rig should always have a safety Chain with them at all times to ensurethat if it was to ever fall off the rig, it then won’tsmash on the floor. If there isn’t a safety wrapped around the CCT Fresnel, the safety chains are situated at the back of the main hall directly abovethe lighting rack.
- 2. Step Three: G-Clamp: All lights should have a G-clamp on at all times; the G-Clamp should be sitting on top of the adjustablearm. If there isn’t a G-Clamp in sight then you should go to the back of the main hall and you will see that they areall situated on the lighting rack. Step Four: Gel Frame: Itis important that all CCT Fresnel’s have gel frames attached to the frontof the light. If there aren’t any gel frames attached to the light you should go to the back of main hall wherethey are all situated on the wall abovethe lighting rack. Step Five: Barn doors: Itis important that all CCT Fresnel’s haveBarn door attached to the frontof the light. Dueto if there are any performancebeing held you are then able to focus the lights easier. If there aren’t any Barn doors attached you should go to the back of the main hall where the barn doors are situated on the wall above the lighting rack. Step Six: Gels: All the CCT Fresnel’s should havegels in them, it doesn’treally matter which colour are in the lights. If there aren’t any gels in the light you should go to the back of the main hall and next to the lighting rack you will see a tall filing cabinet. In there are all the Coloured gels and they are in order of colour. You can cut out the gels to the right size. Yes/No If this is all complete please circle;
- 3. Step Seven: Light not active: If the CCT Fresnelis working firstto do is to check if the plug is plugged in properly. If this still isn’tworking, go and grab the ladder which is located in the back of the hall. Switch the sockets around, for example if it’s in socketnumber 12 put it into socket number 10 and see if it’s working. If itstill doesn’twork take the light down fromthe rig. Step Eight: Make sureyou have a screw driver and a small brush, open the tray which is at the bottom of the light. From there check that the bulb hasn’tpopped, for you to know if it has popped the bulb would havegone black at the top. If the bulb is fine give the lens and the inside a quick brush to get rid of the dust that is in there. After this shutthe tray and tighten it back up. The image here is my self-opening up the light to get inside the light. The image is my self-brushing outthe the dust from inside the light. Step Nine:
