SUMMARY:Primer 20: Stagehand Skills
DESCRIPTION:Master the Stage: An Introduction to Essential Stagehand Skills\n9AM-4PM with a 1 hour lunch at noon. \nBecome an indispensable member of any live event production with this comprehensive introductory course on fundamental stagehand skills. Whether your interest lies in theatre\, concerts\, corporate events\, or festivals\, this class will equip you with the foundational knowledge and hands-on techniques to work safely and efficiently behind the scenes. \nThis course provides a detailed overview of the core competencies every stagehand needs. From the proper handling of equipment to understanding the language of the stage\, you will gain the practical skills necessary to step onto a job site with confidence. \nCourse Outline:\n1. The Art of the Coil: Professional Cable Wrapping A well-coiled cable is the mark of a true professional. Learn the industry-standard “over-under” wrapping technique\, a method that not only prevents tangles and extends the life of the cable but also ensures quick and easy deployment during setup. We will cover the mechanics of this essential skill\, allowing you to handle audio\, lighting\, and power cables with proficiency. \n2. A Clean Stage is a Safe Stage: Tabbing and Taping Properly securing cables is paramount for the safety of performers\, crew\, and the audience. This section will introduce the correct methods for “tabbing” and taping down cables using gaffer’s tape. You will learn how to create a clean\, trip-hazard-free environment while protecting the cables from damage and ensuring a professional appearance. \n3. Building the Backbone: Truss Assembly Stage truss forms the skeleton of most modern productions\, supporting lighting\, sound\, and video elements. This module will cover the fundamentals of assembling and disassembling common types of stage truss. You will learn to identify different truss components\, understand basic load-bearing principles\, and follow safe building practices to construct stable and secure structures. \n4. Handle with Care: Best Practices for Materials Handling The live event industry involves the constant movement of heavy and often delicate equipment. This segment will focus on safe and efficient materials handling techniques. Topics will include proper lifting procedures\, the use of dollies and carts\, and best practices for loading and unloading trucks. The emphasis will be on personal safety and the prevention of injury and equipment damage. \n5. Speaking the Language: A Guide to Stage Directions Clear communication is critical in the fast-paced environment of a live show. This portion of the class will demystify the terminology used on stage. You will learn the definitions and applications of terms such as “stage left\,” “stage right\,” “upstage\,” “downstage\,” and “in the round\,” enabling you to understand and execute directions with precision. \nRegister HERE\nPlease note: \nThis class has limited capacity and as such it will be treated like a job call regarding call out procedures\, tardiness and no call no show. \nRequirements: \n\nThe learner must have worked a call from the referral hall\, worked under a collective bargaining agreement\, or be a current member of IATSE Local 122.\nThis is an in-person class offered at the San Diego Theatrical Training Trust Corp. Training Center. Please take traffic into consideration to arrive on time.\nParking is limited\, please park directly in front of our building. All other spaces are reserved\n\n\n4349 Twain Ave B\, San Diego\, CA\, 92120 in Mission Valley.\n\nWe are at the end of a surprisingly long driveway that is found on the South Side of Twain Ave\, right next to the Doggie Daycare and across from the black\, white and grey newer apartment building. We have limited parking within our own complex only; street parking is great but do not use any other parking lots.
