Rigging policy
Inspire RIGGERS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE FOLLOWING: Create and install any necessary semi-permanent points where available. Make all motor connections to the building structure via acceptable temporary or permanent rigging points. Make all cable pick connections to the building, or any loads greater than 150lbs. Determine who will mark the floors: event production or Inspire staff. Assist accordingly. Lay out motor power and control. Coordinate motor cable runs with production and client. Wrap the truss and float rig to working height. Level the truss out with tape measure; prepare for trim. Make/verify motor connection to audio bumpers and fly to trim. Make/verify motor connections, cage connections, and safeties for video, LED walls, etc. Make/verify any scenic or decorative rigging elements. Verify safety of entire rig when complete; run out to trim and laser level as necessary.
Clean and drop motor power and control as necessary. Secure the rig. Clear and arrange leftover gear and cases, and prepare for load out. Make arrangements for lifts to be powered and charged.
Verify departure/release status from Inspire and confirm schedule for next day or load out. RIGGERS WILL NOT take a break or leave site without the Client or Lead Rigger’s approval.
Cable picks, cable tie backs, audio cluster focus, cable swags etc., can be done by riggers after the main rig is flown to trim. These items can also be done by any lighting, video, or audio hand, when available. Based on schedule timing, it will be the client’s decision whether to keep riggers on the clock to clean cable runs, or allow each department to handle their own cable management. Riggers will provide the point of connection to the building, but are not required to run each department’s cables. Each department will be expected to manage their cables properly, and be responsible for providing clean runs, bundles and swag. Riggers will not be expected to clean mismanaged cables in the air. Rigging plots will be presented to Inspire no less than 21 days from production load-in date. We can run load calculations, but client must provide a complete instrument legend with manufacturer name, model number, and weights.
