OB:Woodstock 2010

Revision as of 12:54, 30 May 2010 by Malcolm.chambers (talk | contribs) (→‎Main Stage: Malcolm's modifications)

Woodstock 2010 will be in Vanbrugh as usual. Currently the suggestion is to to focus all our efforts on the main stage, with maybe a wide shot or something on the indoor stage.

Main Stage

  • Someone needs to contact the organisers well before the event to tell them we NEED POWER for cameras!!!! DONE! We have up to ~3.5A at the main stage
  • 2 HD's
    • as roaming
  • 1 HD as dollycam
    • only if space between crowd barrier & tent is adequate.
    • haggle if necessary, but woodstock will be packed, and they shall be of higher importance to us - our job is to make the pictures a success, given available space.
  • 1 Howard. Dependent on output and 4:3 / 16:9 decision
    • suspended from rig
    • bring cable ties, lots of cable ties
  • Miranda (sky)
    • as wide
    • on balcony per usual In V139, pointing out of the window.
    • Cable run could be out of the V120 window, over the balcony, in V139 window - avoids going out of the door, needing haz tape etc.)
  • canon on balcony?
    • eg for presenters, and jugglesoc etc near the lake in the Langwith direction if they're there again, and rear shot of audience - tree in full bloom obscures the stage
    • may need to bring OB lighting rig for presenters.
  • power from event
    • bring the 16a > 13a's distro board
  • projector
    • find out where the projector(s) is, and possibly where the screen is from RAG
    • just feed it composite
  • Preview TVs --Malcolm.chambers 12:54, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
    • For discussion
    • Dependent on having at least one spare (we should do as we have PiP, and more tvs than we did last year.
    • I (Malcolm) would advise one 6" or ~14" for the two cameras at the front of the stage, the small, home-made, 12V testing monitor for the camera at the side.

Indoor Stage

  • Probably just a wide shot.
  • not many crew, so focus on main
  • Take event sound
  • Use to cut between act on main stage
  • Cams at back sides
  • Tom Trolley Rig

Roomspace

  • Woodstock have 'pretty much booked out all of Vanburgh's upstairs' for us & URY (from friday onwards)
  • URY are in the SCR

URY

  • Mono from indoor stage
  • Stereo (pre-presenters) from main stage
  • Run them a feed to the SCR

Commercial stuff

  • Needs to happen
  • let people know its happening
  • DVD's?

VT's

  • Back archive of stuff to play if there's a pause - e.g. "now lets watch 2007"
  • On a per song basis, with some full sets - no-one can tell for definate how long a changeover will be!
  • All Vt's to be used must be put into a 16:9 project, with black bars down sides
    • This means they get squished, and unsquished, rather than just unsquished (stretchy stretchy)
    • Thus maintaining a respectable aspect ratio...

Streamage

  • Both stages
    • Use new strm0
    • Use an Edit PC

Presenting and stuff

  • head of organisation - Viv.C
    • some notes about bands
  • Gaps:
    • Main stage - 5-20 mins
    • Indoor stage - sporadic!
  • Base at balcony
  • link between sets & Vt's of sets
  • possibly band interviews if can catch any

Comms

  • give to presenters not cam Ops - cam ops can be clever
  • Clever signalling solution needed.


Gazebo

  • Stick on balcony - for rains
  • Backup = go inside.

Top n' tailing

  • Use spare Edit OC

Happy crew equipment

  • Denton Boom - Balmer
  • O.B. Party box - communal noms

YUSU Plasma's

  • Cullen to talk to yusu IT GUYS. be very very persuassive.
  • Chislett talk projectors YSL.
