 = Cable Runs =
+'''Main Stage:'''
+*  Sky Cam (V139):
+**  Trail cable out of V120, across balcony (NB the boardswhich make up the floor of the balcony may accommodate the BNC nicely, alternatively weave it in the rails.  Loop cable around window frame, secure to tripod and plug into camera.  Camera running off mains power from somewhere in V139, may require a medium length extension lead.
+*  Howard (marquee roof):
+**  BNC from howard, taped to howard and secured to frame, not dangling from socket.  This trails down whichever side of the frame is most convenient, and probably goes into a video over cat5e box.  Also needs power over 4-pin XLR, and control over cat5 to go all the way to the roof.
+* Three HD Sonys
+**  Umbilical to each camera, secured to the camera/tripod to put as little strain on socket as possible, possibly also have s-vid bodge(s) and cable ties or tape nearby in case on of the sockets goes faulty.  Video from at least two, probably all three into a video over cat5 box.
+'''Balcony'''
+*  Two xlrs, one for the omnidirectional caged mic, the other for the rifle mic or cardioid as main stage sound backup.
+*  Comms for presenter (the camera op should know what they're doing, and can receive cues from the V120 window).
+*  Non-Firewire Canon
+**  BNC for camera, from V120, to balcony railings, into breakout cable and Camera.
+'''Indoor Stage'''
+Cat5 doing either 3 or all 4 cameras from the hall to the control room BNC if necessary should go on the wide shot camera (more reliable than over cat5).  IFF the mains-powered 3vid over cat5 box is used, I'd suggest having a BNC from eacho f the three cameras near the stage running to the cat5 box at the back of the hall, reduces chance of damage to cable, makes alterations/bodges easier.
+Mains to power cameras, I haven't specifically asked for this but there shouldn't be a shortage of power, given all the mains sockets on the walls anyway.
