Having this as an independent department makes sense and will alleviate workload on the set lighting and rigging teams. The time has more than come.

Fixtures department is a very important part of the electrical department. Most shows can not be done without one

The fixtures department is a critical and specialized necessity in the film industry and should be recognized as such

Hello, As a Fixtures Foreman, having control of the man days and my own budget would streamline the completion of work for our projects. Having to work through two different departments (Rigging Electric and Set Dec) to get the people and equipment needs met is frustrating. I believe this would benefit the entire show if Fixtures was it's own department.

479 Electric. I think this is a much needed distinction.

Same. Would be great to see Fixtures recognized as its own department within Electric.
