Fabrication for Theatre and Entertainment: Wood and Fiber Products

About this book

Fabrication for Theatre and Entertainment: Wood and Fiber Products is a complete reference guide to the process of working with wood products for scenic and properties construction for theatre and entertainment arts.

This book covers lumber product characteristics, layout methods for fabricators, and the tooling and machinery used to fabricate with lumber products. While there are references that demonstrate common scenic construction methods, furniture joinery, and commercial construction, this book also introduces methods for calibrating machinery and accurately configuring them for various construction tasks, helping entertainment fabricators ensure a repeatable, accurate finished product. Readers will be introduced to a wide range of tools and techniques, which will allow them to tackle both common issues and new challenges creatively and effectively.

The book is intended as a resource for technical designers, technical directors, shop managers, master carpenters, and prop or scenic fabricators working in various parts of the entertainment industry, including film, television, theatre, themed entertainment, exhibits, and immersive installation art.
