Set construction is a process undertaken by the construction manager to build a full-scale landscape, as determined by a production designer or art director working with a production director to create a set for theater, film or television production. Designer sets produce scale models, scale images, paint elevation (scale painting given to beautiful painters of every element that requires painting), and research on props, textures, and so on. Scale images typically include groundplan, elevation, and part of the full set, as well as more detailed images of the individual beautiful elements that, in theatrical production, may be static, flown, or built into a landscape wagon. Models and paint elevations are often self-produced, although in recent years, many Production Designers and most commercial theaters have begun to produce scaled drawings with the help of computer compilation programs like AutoCAD or Vectorworks.

Theater
In a theater, the technical director or production manager is the person responsible for evaluating the completed design and considering the limitations of budget and time. He is a landscape engineer, it has been re-assembled to build, budget time, crew and materials, and liaison between designers and stores. Technical directors often have assistant technical directors whose tasks can range from designing to actually building the scene.
Stores scene, in theater production is often overseen by foreman shop or carpenter. This person assigns tasks, direct supervision of carpenters, and deals with everyday things like absences, breaks, tool repairs, etc. The scene shop staff is usually referred to as a wonderful carpenter, but inside there are many specialties such as plasterers, welders, and scenic tailors. The landscape painting is a separate aspect of the scenic construction, although the beautiful painters usually answer the technical director.

Movie production
In the production of major films in the UK, a Director of the Art of Supervisors is responsible for the Art Director's team, each composing a separate set or part of a set. The construction supervisor interprets the drawing and allocates manpower and resources, with the Production Designer giving approval of the completed set on behalf of the Board of Directors. The film's construction is strictly compartmentalized in the main drawings.
Construction of film sets is mainly done at the studio stage or back lot, often in studio complexes and some studio stages can be allocated purely as a workshop space during the construction process. Many disciplines are used under the construction manager but the craftsmen tend not to be multi-taskers and so there are various job titles, such as, carpenters, riggers, plasterers, stage hands, poly wallers, landscape painter, standby painter and carpenter standby among them. A prop manufacture workshop is established in the same stage and can be paid to get out of the Construction budget or Art Department depending on the nature and size of the props concerned.
The construction department is led by a construction coordinator. The Coordinator reports to the art director and production designer and is responsible for budgeting and implementation design. The construction coordinator has a public foreman to help. Next there was another foreman, a lead carpenter called a gang boss, and then all the carpenters and craftsmen.
The construction coordinator, or construction company, provides all equipment and equipment separated from small hand tools specially for craftsman work, such as screw guns, paint brushes and plastering plaster. This makes logistics and efficiency the responsibility of the construction manager and makes each crew member as a liquid freelancer to be employed and employed at very short notice during production.
Studio complexes tend to have support services like Hanging Stores, general stores, wood shops and plaster shops as well as special effects firms, on site to support construction and other departments.
In the United States, construction workers are usually members of the entertainment union, IATSE, International Alliance Employee Theater Stage.
