10、ent Events 2013 PLASA North America ii Rig/2010-2025r7 The PLASA Technical Standards Program The PLASA Technical Standards Program was created to serve the PLASA membership and the entertainment industry in technical standards related matters. The goal of the Program is to take a leading role regard
11、ing technology within the entertainment industry by creating recommended practices and standards, monitoring standards issues around the world on behalf of our members, and improving communications and safety within the industry. PLASA works closely with the technical standards efforts of other orga
12、nizations within our industry, including USITT and VPLT, as well as representing the interests of PLASA members to ANSI, UL, and the NFPA. The Technical Standards Program is accredited by the American National Standards Institute. The Technical Standards Council (TSC) was established to oversee and
13、coordinate the Technical Standards Program. Made up of individuals experienced in standards-making work from throughout our industry, the Council approves all projects undertaken and assigns them to the appropriate working group. The Technical Standards Council employs a Technical Standards Manager
14、to coordinate the work of the Council and its working groups as well as maintain a “Standards Watch” on behalf of members. Working groups include: Control Protocols, Electrical Power, Floors, Fog and Smoke, Followspot Position, Photometrics, Rigging, and Stage Lifts. PLASA encourages active particip
15、ation in the Technical Standards Program. There are several ways to become involved. If you would like to become a member of an existing working group, as have over four hundred people, you must complete an application which is available from the PLASA office. Your application is subject to approval
16、 by the working group and you will be required to actively participate in the work of the group. This includes responding to letter ballots and attending meetings. Membership in PLASA is not a requirement. You can also become involved by requesting that the TSC develop a standard or a recommended pr
17、actice in an area of concern to you. The Rigging Working Group, which authored this Standard, consists of a cross section of entertainment industry professionals representing a diversity of interests. PLASA is committed to developing consensus-based standards and recommended practices in an open set
