If your putting on an event and have contracted an audio visual supplier to provide audio visual, lighting and other production equipment the most helpful thing you can provide is a thorough event run sheet. Providing a thorough run sheet of how you see the event running gives audio visual suppliers a chance to prepare and make suggestions based on their extensive experience.
Key information includes event running order, estimated timing, performance type/name, individual AV requirements, lighting look, contact details and so on. Check out our template Sample Runsheet here.
