===Sliding Gauze Doors===
 
For our game show set we wanted to create a set of two sliding doors out of the gauze hard maskers that had been initially created for the show in the chandler prior to our innerspace (A Christmas Carol). We designed a system to do this using truss and track that had been inspired by the performer flying rig used in the show After Life. This consisted of two lines of Unibeam track on either of the bottom facing truss poles connected to scenery carriers (100kg) that had been attached to the top of the wooden frame of the maskers.

When testing the track it was easy enough to create a system where both carriers on the same track line moved in opposite directions, but since we wanted the two flats to be able to cross behind/in front of one another we needed them to be on separate tracks whilst moving simultaneously on a single operating line. To do this we - instead of using a return pulley - used an additional pulley at the end of each track to send the line in two right angles between the two track lines and then back on itself.

We used 10m of truss and 2x9m of track in order to give the flats enough room to travel the distance we would like, attach all the necessary accessories, and have some extra room for error.
 
As the height of our flats were a bit short of the distance from the stage floor to the rigging points overhead, we were left with a roughly meter long gap between the bottom of the flat and the floor. In order to cover this distance and give ourselves some adjustability in the height, we added some extra rigging between the scenery carriers and the flats. We used an eye bolt to a 1 ton shackle on both the carriers and the flats connected by a turnbuckle. This would take us to roughly 70mm off the ground, with some room for error either way thanks to the turnbuckle.

===Practical Cue Lights===
 
To show the ‘behind the scenes’ aesthetic we’re trying to create we wanted to have a practical set of ‘cue lights’ seen above the set of the stage. We came up with the design of a wooden box with internal shelves to store 2 birdies. The front panel would have two circular holes cut out, screwed in behind each of which was a gel frame to change the colour of the lights to red and green respectively. The birdies were then screwed down to the shelves on the inside. 
 
We left the box without a back panel in order to create some amount of ventilation for the lights, while also allowing the cabling to come out of the back. 
 
The rigging points needed to be put in at the box’s centre of gravity so that the uneven weight of the box’s wouldn’t cause the box to hang at an angle. We used M10 T-nuts and eye bolts to create these points, locked off with a nyloc. 
 
The internal shelves proved to be a tad flimsy once the birdies were put on so we used metal L brackets to further secure them to the inside of the box. As an additional measure, safety’s were attached to the birdies through screw eyes on the inside of the boxes. 
 
As a further protection from heat the inside of the boxes were coated in flambar PE6.
