There’s nothing like a tight deadline…

Live TV. Stage Production Demo from Paul Hadley on Vimeo.
As part of the usual European Tour when promoting singles, artists will go from national TV station, to national TV station, performing the same song time after time.
My involvement in this year 2000 tour was stage design coordinator, technical specification & set up consultant, camera jimmy jib, and crew management.
The brief was for a 7 minute turn-around in between sets, to enable very fast scene changes between artists, which involved coordinating a crew of 30 technical stage hands.
The turn-around involved complete set up of all equipment, including pa, instruments, mics, foldback, plus all the TV equipment.
The total time we had to rehearse the schedule with the artist was 4 hours, so a huge amount of pre-production and planning was involved.
It was events such as these that proved to be my grounding and learning for the future.
