Clarify the plan and responsibilities first. Then agree how the show will run.
Workflow guide
Event workflow
Follow crew tasks, scripts, backstage cues and speaker time in one rundown.
Start with the whole event
Plan the sequence, timings, host content and crew responsibilities together. A segment needs more than a name: explain its purpose, who takes part and how it links to what comes before and after. StageNow is built around this complete event context.
Rehearsal reveals the gap between the plan and the room. When a segment changes, check whether its script, stage movements and crew actions also need attention. Confirm product capabilities against the current version and a working demonstration.
Make each segment clear
Set out the name, order, timings and participants so the crew understands the whole plan.
Give every action context
Attach action notes to their segment. Identify the responsible role, preparation and handoff.
From planning to live work
Rundown management helps people understand the work and coordinate it. Backstage cues and speaker timing serve different users; clear responsibilities and on-site judgement remain essential.
Backstage Cue
- Follow the current segment
- Explain what to prepare next
Speaker Timer
- For speakers and hosts
- Keep time easy to read
