A day at work
« on: March 18, 2013, 09:53:06 pm »
Here's a rime lapse video of setting up for a symphony show.  The walls we're moving around weigh just under 3 tons each.  We use air casters to move them around.

Very cool!
What did it look like when the show was going on?

Well, it wasn't that fast!  Here's a pic from tonight's rehearsal.

Wow, that is a pretty cool system. 
Do you change out the walls depending on the type of show?


I especially appreciated robot walking dude around :50.  :)

All in a weeks work.  Thanks for sharing.

Now, if you would take the photos with the ipad in the correct orientation, the people would be sitting right side up. ;) :)) :)

The shell just goes up for classical stuff.  For theater or road shows it stays in storage.  The air caster system we use to set it up is very impressive.  Once they're powered up, you can push an almost 3 ton wall around with one hand!

Ya know, I noticed that right after I posted and took another one right side up.  But when I posted that they both looked the same and both were right side up, so I deleted the second one!
