Production Project Management

Budgets, vendors, crew and schedule, handled from first call to load-out.

One point of contact

Producers have enough to manage. We take the technical side off your plate: we build the budget, get the gear quoted, hire the crew, advance the venue and run the schedule, so you have one person to call instead of five.

What we handle

  • Budgeting and bid comparison
  • Vendor and rental-house coordination
  • Crew hiring and scheduling
  • Site advance, power and rigging coordination
  • Load-in and load-out schedules
  • Show-day production management

Why a designer makes a better project manager

Because we design, draft and program shows ourselves, we know what the gear does, what it costs and how long it takes to hang. That keeps budgets realistic and schedules honest, and it means problems get spotted on paper instead of on show day.

Qualified, insured crew

12 Hours In carries its own workers' compensation insurance and works with qualified crew who keep the show on schedule and on budget.

Questions

Can you manage just the lighting department?

Yes, or the full technical production, depending on what you need.

Do you work with our existing vendors?

Yes. We're happy to work with your preferred rental houses and crew, or bring our own.

How early should we bring you in?

As early as possible. The earlier the budget and schedule are set, the more options you have.
