The Staging Tightrope

Dance events are notorious for schedule overruns: teams arriving late, missing audio pen drives, and lengthy judge calculations.

Seamless Operational Fixes - **Pre-Uploaded Audio Tracks**: Demand MP3 uploads during ticket registration; disallow loose pen drives at the sound console. - **Stage Marking Tape**: Mark stage center and corners with fluorescent gaffer tape before the first team takes the stage. - **Standardized Rubric**: Sync judge tablet entries directly to eliminate manual calculation pauses between team performances.
