Entertainment Rigging
Entertainment Rigging is a specialized field within the design industry that focuses on the implementation of safety systems and procedures to ensure the safety of cast, crew, and audience during live entertainment events. This includes the installation and maintenance of the necessary equipment and potentially hazardous conditions, such as the structure of the stage and its scaffolding, the handling of scenery and props, the secure and reliable installation of lighting, sound and other technical equipment, and the secure and safe installation of backdrops and curtains. Entertainment Rigging is also responsible for the safe and efficient transportation of personnel and equipment from one venue to another, and for the protection and preservation of all equipment used for a live show. It is important to note that Entertainment Rigging is not limited to the installation and maintenance of physical elements, but also encompasses the training of personnel to ensure safety and compliance with industry standards.
