Stage Manager / AV Manager

 

The Stage Manager / AV Manager is either the manager of an Audio Visual team or the only technical person on the ship. You must be able to work the sound and lighting equipment for the production shows, presentations, games, etc.

On duty during all shows and rehearsals, your responsibilities include:

• overseeing the sound of all activities including games & presentations
• supervising the sound for all bands and cocktail pianists
• managing props, setting up microphones
• doing occasional announcements on the microphone
• basic maintenance and repair of equipment

Depending on the size of the ship, the Audio Visual team can vary in size from one person to seven people under the supervision of the Stage Manager/AV Manager. The smaller the ship the more versatile you have to be. On a larger ship, duties will be more specific, such as Lighting Technician, Cyberlight Technician, Stage Helper, etc. On a larger ship, the Stage Manager / AV Manager must have management skills to supervise the audio visual team, do the work schedules, be the liaison with the head office, write the evaluation reports of his/her employees, request new equipment, etc. The Stage Manager / AV Manager is under the supervision of the ship's Cruise Director, who is responsible for scheduling.
