Advancing
The ongoing process of coordinating and documenting an event’s requirements with venues and suppliers before arrival.
Setup
- Good advancing identifies owners and deadlines, records substitutions, confirms drawings and power, and produces one shared current version rather than relying on scattered messages.
Venue contexts
- Theatre, concerts, festivals, broadcast, and corporate events, as applicable
Signal flow
- Confirm the source, patch, transport, control, and destination for the system involved.
In practice
Good advancing identifies owners and deadlines, records substitutions, confirms drawings and power, and produces one shared current version rather than relying on scattered messages.
