Use of auditorium equipment such as stage lighting, the counterweight fly system, sound equipment, video equipment, curtains, etc. or whenever access to the auditorium control booth is required, a Media Services Technician (MST) must be present.
When equipment use is extensive, additional MST time may be required and or a second or third MST may be required. Groups must pay for any additional time or staff required for these services.
The following is a general overview of what a group may expect of media services staff when working for community use events and activities:
- Ensure that necessary equipment is available for use upon arrival of the group.
- Remain with the group in the space(s) where their services are required.
- Provide oversight and reasonable assistance to the group related to safe use of all equipment use, props, stage apparatus, etc.
- Ensure all equipment is in good condition at conclusion of use.
- Maintain and store all equipment and secure applicable areas as may be necessary prior to departure.
