Community Theater Green Room Discussion Board: Flying Actors

   Does anyone know how about making characters fly. I know all the special effects ways. But I've seen this done beautifully and was wondering how I go about getting the correct set up. Thanks. I am from New England.

	Hi Corey, Flying an actor is precarious at best. There are too many things that can go wrong when good intentioned amateurs fly an actor, not to mention that the liability insurance to undertake such endeavors is high. Your best bet is to contact a professional rigging company or an individual with the experience, insurance and the proper equipment it takes to fly an actor safely and efficiently. This is a job best left to the professionals. Fiat Lux! Bil K --------------------------------------------------------- "The Director is simply the audience.......
