| The
following is the list of the various STC Slate Positions and its requirements. These descriptions are subject to change
The Communications Coordinator is responsible for communication
within the STC Slate and publicity/communication between the STC and the
larger Stuyvesant community. Responsibilities include: scheduling
monthly STC Slate meetings, writing a weekly STC Slate email update, updating
the STC bulletin board (2nd Flr by elevators) and website, creating and
delegating the posting of eye-catching posters, and communicating with
the SU about video homeroom.
The Financial Coordinator is responsible for overseeing the operating
budget of individual shows as well as ensuring the overall financial well-being
of the STC. Responsibilities include: meeting with tech crews and show
slates before and during each show to establish and maintain show and crew
budgets, setting ticket prices, processing reimbursements and payments,
keeping constant track of expenditures and deposits, writing detailed financial
summary statements for each show, and requesting funding from school organizations
like the Student Union, Alumni Association, and the Parents' Association.
The Production Coordinator oversees the progress of the four
major productions: the One Act Festival, the Fall Musical, the Winter
Drama, and the Spring Comedy. Responsibilities include: scheduling and
running Vision Meetings (including show slates and crew directors) at the
beginning of each major production, meeting regularly with show slates
and stopping by rehearsals at least once a week to monitor progress and
ensure success, as well as working with the Financial Coordinator to run
training sessions for the producers of each major production.
The Studio Theater Coordinator is responsible
for overseeing Studio productions: small shows put on in nontraditional
spaces (the library, the cafeteria, Room 1025) which have been submitted
by a student who wants to direct, involve minimal sets, and are very low-budget.
Responsibilities include: advertising for and receiving submissions, reviewing
scripts, helping directors with slate interviews and cast auditions, and
overseeing the actual running of the shows. The job involves heavy communication
with each Studio show slate and cast as well as the ability to solve
artistic and technical difficulties of budget and space constraints.
**You do not need to be an expert in theater tech to take on
this position. You do need some experience with the backstage workings
of the theater, and the ability to enter into good communication with the
tech crews. **
The Technical Coordinator is responsible for facilitating
communication between the STC Slate and the heads of the various technical
crews (tech, art, lighting, sound, costume, props) throughout the year. Responsibilities
include: meeting with the tech crews before and during each show to ensure
communication between tech crews, show slates, and the STC Slate; working
with the Studio Theater Coordinator to organize the setup of temporary
theater spaces for Studio shows; and representing technical considerations
at STC Slate meetings, especially when choosing new scripts. |
