Year 11 production roles
JOB	RESPONSIBILITIES What planning/preparation, skills & tasks are involved? What materials/equipment are needed? What obstacles to get in the way of the job being completed by performance? How could these be overcome?
Deputy Stage Manager	I feel every manager need an assistant that helps them assist with the planning, coordination, development, administration. Experience is very helpful in securing a job, but not always necessary depending on personal skills and credentials. -      By taking messages, phone calls etc. and assisting in general, including taking over the DSM’s duties when required. Duties include: helping director and artists with errands etc. when they cannot spare their own time, checking props, furniture etc, operating sound and other technical equipment etc.   -      We then have three dress rehearsals which are coordinated by the stage manager and DSM. The aim is to create a performance that runs smoothly with all aspects of the production coordinated to happen at exactly the correct moment in the script or at a particular moment determined by an actor’s action   -      as a deputy stage manager I have been responsible for cueing graves to be opened, gunshots, glitter to fall, the set to revolve, telephones to ring, dead bodies to be flown out of vans, large walnuts containing goblins to be pushed onto stage and apples to fall from trees. What a wonderful hobby.   -      The type of hurdles you may have to face is making sure you take leadership
Assistant Stage Manager	-      Assistant managers have various of duties like: setting schedules to developing solutions for problems that arise during operations. They often help with hiring and training, and should be able to handle the day-to-day tasks of the manager if they are absent. Extensive knowledge of the specific company and industry where these assistants work are essential -  It is usual for at least one ASM on the team to also learn the Book, with a view to running the show in the absence of the DSM. While learning the cues which necessitates shadowing the DSM throughout the show (as well as extra tuition during the day) the CSM (company stage manager) will cover their cues, although it may be possible to share the extra duties around the remaining staff.   -      This is in no way an exclusive list of stage management duties. The basic duty of the stage management is to prevent anything bad from affecting the production and to facilitate the best possible conditions for the production to reach its full potential. Having distributed the duties within the team, the members should make themselves familiar with one another’s duties in order to cover each other if need be.   -      The type of equipment that would be used is something called a show report which means the assistant manager writes what happens throughout the day and takes notes.   -      They take care of props and making sure the props are ready for each scene and the prop table is prepped.   -      They helped prepare Each scene change and take notes accordingly so at any time the director can turn and ask about light or if a person should be wearing anything specific and the assistant should be able to know.
