Stagecraft

Stagecraft is a technical aspect of theatrical, film, and video production. It includes constructing and rigging scenery; hanging and focusing of lighting; fabrication and procurement of costumes; make-up; stage management; audio engineering; and procurement of props. Stagecraft is distinct from the wider umbrella term of scenography.

Considered a technical rather than an artistic field, it is primarily the practical implementation of a scenic designer's artistic vision.
