{"product_id":"conference-event-production-process-tube-map","title":"Event Production Process Tube Map Art Print","description":"\u003cp\u003eA gift for event producers who have never once seen the whole job drawn in one place, because this maps live event production as a network, with every role as a line and every milestone as a station. They have lived it for years. Nobody has ever shown it to them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGiclée on 230gsm premium fine art paper, textured matte, archival and acid-free. Available in A2 or A1, with US sizing at 24x18in and 36x24in, unframed or framed. Designed by me in East Sussex.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI did not research this one, I lived it. Every other map I make comes out of archives and liner notes, and this one came out of two decades of standing at the back of rehearsal rooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy this event production process tube map makes a gift producers keep\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn a live job you only ever see your own line. The producer sees one route through it, the designer another, the AV lead another again, and almost nobody sees the whole network at once.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat is the actual subject of this print. Not a timeline, but the connections, and where the creative decisions get made. The full story on your wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat the map shows\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery production role runs as its own line. Producer, director, designer, AV lead, show caller and runner each take a route through the job, and the interest is in where they cross rather than where they run alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe stations are the milestones. First client brief, creative kick-off, design development, venue recce, build, rehearsal, show days and de-rig.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrawn out, the shape says something about how creative work actually happens. The lines converge hardest well before the show, around the kick-off and design development, and by the time you reach the show days most of the decisions have already been made.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnyone who has done the job will recognise their own line immediately, and probably argue with where I have put someone else's.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe other half of my work\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlongside the maps I still design live events, working freelance on 3D show design for conferences, exhibitions and experiential work.
