What is Set construction?
[[Image:Set construction.jpg|thumb|right|250px|[[Carpenter]]s working on constructing a set]] '''Set construction''' means building the scenery for the performance of a [[Play (theatre)|play]] in a [[theatre]] or for the filming of a [[movie]] or a [[television]] programme. There are several stages in the building of a set and, for a large project, many people may be needed. The set designer has to design the set. A model will be built to show what the set will look like. [[Drawing]]s are made. The technical director or production manager will look at the designs and decide whether they are what he wants and whether there is enough [[money]] to built it. Then a master carpenter will tell the people who work for him what they have to do. There will be carpenters, [[plasterer]]s, [[welder]]s, [[painter]]s and, perhaps, several other [[craft]]smen. {{stub}} [[Category:Theater]]
