In film-making, a '''swing gang''' is one or more persons who make last-minute changes on a [[film set]]. This may include construction of new portions of a set the [[Director (film)|director]] requests or simply striking large [[furniture]] at a [[set decorator]]'s request. The swing gang is part of the [[Set dresser|set dressing]] department. Sets that are not part of the "permanent" sets are called swing set. They come and go as the scripts dictate. Thus the crew that handles the set dressing elements are called the swing gang. These sets may need to be struck during the late evening or the "swing shift". |
