Production Sound Supervisor - Reference Notes

Paperwork and Labels

Having 2 days to prep labels and paperwork before crew arrives in the shop is super helpful. Organizing labels into piles that can be handed to crew saves a lot of time looking for labels and reference check lists

During shop prep, have three places where crew can grab label or rack paperwork: new, in progress, and completed
- Crew grabs new bundle/cable labels/rack drawings, and info sheets from the "new" place. Crew returns completed tasks to the "completed place, so I can check them off. "In progress" place is for tasks that have been started but not completed
  - like for not finishing something before end of day, or waiting on gear from the shops
paper folders for organizing drawings and labels
- equipment lists
- rack drawings
- check lists and bundle sheets
- tail labels
- medium labels
- big labels
- individual cable labels

Checklists in the left pocket, labels in the right pocket. Labels for bundles get paper stapled to their bundle sheet

Have a conversation with the design team ahead of time about what their expectations are for tech coverage
- If they want me to stay for the entirety of tech rehearsals, then I need an assistant to come in and handle notes in the morning. I may need their help to get that money approved with PM
have a discussion about how often they want tech tables for preview rehearsals, and how that compares with my labor budget
