Table Read
The read-through, table-read, or table work is a stage of film, television, radio, and theatre production when an organized reading around a table of the screenplay or script by the actors with speaking parts is conducted.

The director may then open proceedings by making a short speech outlining their aspirations for the project. An additional professional actor not otherwise involved in the production may be hired to read the non-dialogue parts of the script such as scene headings and action.

Transporters allow for teleportation by converting a person or object into an energy pattern (a process called "dematerialization"), then sending ("beaming") it to a target location or else returning it to the transporter, where it is reconverted into matter ("rematerialization"). Since its introduction in ''Star Trek: The Original Series'' in 1966, the name and similar concepts have made their way to other science fiction scenarios, in literature (such as the ''Thousand Cultures'' series), games (''SimEarth''), etc. The transporter was originally conceived as a device to convey characters from a starship to the surface of a planet without the need for expensive and time-consuming special effects to depict the starship or another craft physically landing.
