Overview
Due to COVID- 19, our year group was split into 4 groups to learn. For Innerspace, we split our year group in two. Groups C + D came together to fit up our show: 'Outer Space' on the 10th December and performed it to select staff and the rest of the class on the 11th.

The Set
With no budget, our team had to work with what was already in the space. As there were already 3 strips of black dance floor we decided this would be our "performing area/ stage." Due to Covid - 19 restrictions, we had to minimise how many people we had on stage at one time and be aware of our max capacity in the venue. We decided that two of our team would take one act each performing as the "player."
Masking
To achieve the set we used two 4x8 legs tied directly on to the LX bars as this meant no need for hanging bars as we only had one day to "fit-Up". We used stage weights to take the creases out and pin them safely at the bottom. The AGOS has black tabs on a track that go most of the way round the performance venue so we used these as the rest our masking
Projection Screen
The projection was the core of our Innerspace project without a doubt. We originally planned Rear projecting onto a cyclorama. However, after numerous talks with the AV department, we found out that the projectors in stock were quite old and may not have the power to pierce the cyc. We booked out the AGOS and tried the projecotr out with the Rear Projection screen 9 x 12ft and decided on this set up.

Pre Show Checks
With all 4 team members having different tasks during the pre show time everyone had a different list with all moving aspects of the show needing checked fully. Meaning all revolve cues would be run daily before each show to test it as it would be run but also for the operator to get the feel of the control. We also needed to check all flying and automation pieces along with the sliding back wall panel and the various parts to that.
Flys
The show had 1 flown aspect to it, with no counterweight bars to use. The only flown element during the show is a Nerf Gun. It was attached to one of the LX bars using a 1-ton sling, a Petzl Oscillante and a Snap Shackle

Risk Assessments
This was a fairly low-risk production with the main risk being COVID-19. Other risk assessments were written for the fit-up and general health and safety in the space.

The Team
The Plan-
For this show the biggest problem faced was getting equal coverage across space in the AGOS. We flew two speakers 2m of the centre stage either side on the LX bars
Comms
The AGOS has its own comms box which Scotty and Tom Sedgwick patched and tested during fit-up, 4 headsets and 4 belt packs. We used 1 Cue Light to signal to our flyman to fly the gun in as he was positioned on the Catwalk during the performance.
