A fit up is like putting on a mini show with a bump in and bump out. Most of our class did slideshows to cover Av and put sound and lighting cues to it. We were put into 2 groups and within each group we hads a variety of roles we had to fulfil. For our presentation/show/fit up we were the director.
Other people in out group then had to be stage manager and call the cues, lighting, sound and Av opertors to do the cues once they had been called and every1 in the group helped to bump in and bump out props, sets and lighting changes (eg. changing gels or moving lights)
We also had to hand in a range of different documentation, 21 in total, but i did more but adding a few minor ones which included a lighting plan, cue synopsises etc
All in all in was a good day (takes 2 days to do, 1 day is practice and 1 day in the final show) only a few minor bumps and should have gotten out results last week but our class was cancelled when the teacher collapsed.
Basically fit up is to determine wether u are competent in all the competencies required to get the certificate in entertainment (whatever strand u do) and if u dnt pass a competency u have another chance to get it before the cutoff date which is in late september
Hope that kinda clears up wat a fit up is. I thought every1 in enetertainment did 1 but obviously not
ps: talking of stupid teachers in our last lesson in class (when i was at rock eisteddfod finals) ou teacher apprently said we all failed the communicating with customers competency in our fit up but we dnt have any customers?!?! sum of us communicated with customers at our work placement but she wasnt there n we also apprently failed using hand tools but we made flats with her...very strange teacher this 1
