BACK CURTAIN
The back black tab does not “FLY” up, instead it travels sideways.
The area behind the curtain is small.
Many coaches like to “run” with the curtain to make sure it does not wrap around the competitors.
You have the option of using the MID CURTAIN instead – you just need to make sure this does not affect your choreography and minimum numbers etc

​

THE SOUND SYSTEM AND MC

​

MUSIC: CDs and USBs

This year we are asking that all music and dlps be uploaded prior to the competition via dropbox.  An email has been sent out with details.  Please bring backups on USB or CD.
Billanook is able to play either CD or USB from its sound system.
It is VITAL that if you have more than one piece of music on your USB that you know EXACTLY which track number it is that you wish to play.

​

DLPS

This year we are asking that all music and dlps be uploaded prior to the competition via dropbox.  An email has been sent out with details.  Please bring backups on USB.

As the computer system at Billanook is APPLE based, you need any movie files embedded within your powerpoint to be MP4 or MOV files. AVI should be ok… but WMVs will NOT play. Music embedded in your DLP will play as normal.

​

LIGHTING

You may wish to call your lighting and cue your DLPs from the Bio box (instead of from side stage). This is located at the back of theatre with access from inside the auditorium. Make sure you have someone side stage on the headset so you can communicate when you are ready and they can also indicate when your competitors are ready.
