Study Notes
Marshalling During Bump-In and Bump-Out
- Marshalling refers to the organization of items in a designated area and sequence for efficient unloading and loading of vehicles during events.
- For bump-in, staging elements are placed in a pre-assigned area in the exact order of their intended use to ensure a smooth setup process.
- Proper ordering of elements on transport vehicles prevents congestion, as stage builders and lighting crews need clear access to materials without obstructions.
- For bump-out processes, elements are dismantled in a logical sequence, allowing crews to position items in an organized manner for loading back onto transport vehicles.
- A visual aid, such as a document or map, is often provided to the crew to indicate the location of staging elements and equipment, facilitating coordination during unloading.
- The goal of marshalling is to create an organized workflow that enhances the efficiency and safety of both bump-in and bump-out.
