Take Down of Out of Order

Me take down team working hard

Out of Order

For our Out of Order exhibition, I was made head of take-down team and clean up. I haven't done take down before as I was co-head of PR last year, so I thought it would be a way to try something more practical with the whole exhibition process. 

I have to admit, my role as leader was made a lot easier because of Georgie's super leadership skills during the entire exhibition; information was passed easily through CMV to myself as a team leader. This allowed me to organise my team effectively so everything ran smoothly! 

The only hurdle in the whole process came when CMV realised they had a meeting the day of take-down, so we had to move the whole process forward three hours or so on the day! I was a little worried that my team wouldn't read my messages in time, however they all pulled through and got there in time!!

Becky and Andy were lovely and helpful as ever, and Joe pitched in to help with the loading and transportation of all the prints. I think overall the team worked well as a unit and we got the full space taken down in around half an hour! Go team!!

This experience was helpful in understanding how take down happens in an exhibition. It was really straight forward and I feel all the hard work had been down by the hanging team already. It was handy to know how to take down vinyl from the windows though; something I'll remember for future events!
