Build Timeline for Miami International Film Festival
We plan Miami International Film Festival builds backwards from the official load-in window. Structural elements pre-staged the day before, graphics applied morning-of, AV and lighting calibrated by midday, then a final walkthrough with the project manager before doors open.
