</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Within working towards producing a set design for the school horror many demands and high inspirational input from students were required. As the drama department was eager to put on a good show for the audience, like every stage production it was important to put as much as effort possible to create a superior outcome.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Firstly, as I was excited to be involved in the making of a theatre design a lot of responsibility was needed from me and the team. There was a great range of practical work that I was involved in. For example, it was one of my jobs with my group to construct a florist shop relevant to the storyline and to make a dentist chair. Therefore, to make the correct scenery I researched the types of chairs that relate in the story. I believe that research was significant for this project because it gained knowledge on clarifying the type of pieces that should be created. I also got involved in:</div><div class="MsoNormal">Scene painting<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal">Prop construction<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal">Construct the action prop (the prop being used)<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal">Making the plant<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal">Designing posters, graphical designs<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal">Painting<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal">Creating a dentist chair<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal">Florist construction<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal">Technical requirements- working out scale of plant was essential<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal">Visual research/ mood boards/search engines/books, TV<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal">Got involved in stage management- guiding for when to change scenes. Ensuring person controlling plant was OK- health and safety<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal">Making sure everything is safe whilst props are being transferred.<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">While I was in the process of designing the set I learnt much more about the timescale of ‘pre-production’. Firstly, I noticed that the timescale was very strict as the date is set therefore it is permanent. As well as this but, every member of the designing team has lots of individual responsibilities due to the busy timescale. To help, the production to be successful, comprising a strict and encouraged management in addition excellent organisational skills ensures the production is stable.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">There was a variety of parts that I enjoyed and felt the ability to complete. Firstly, I took the pleasure to be original and creative. Not only this but, I was capable selecting the correct and suitable images from search engines which are most relevant to the story. However, I was sometimes positioned in making decisions without help meaning I was uncertain without assistance. But, I overcome this by compromising with my team members to make a final choice. If I was to improve in this project I would thoroughly plan my steps before designing as this would reduce the stress over the deadline.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">An element that I have learnt the most during this project is to understood how important it is to meet deadlines for a set design because it is immovable. For that reason, an individual must stay focused from beginning to the end of the stage design. Moreover, I gained knowledge on how to organise this event successfully. This includes going through the script numerously. I believe that rehearsing scene changes are highly important as I needed to remember where the props are located. Most of all, I know that team work gains motivation and success as it guarantees being confidence throughout the project. Also, during the live performance I learnt to keep the actors feeling confident as well as moving props safely within a very quick time. I was happy to make sure the person behind the plant prop was ok at all times. Live performances can be stressful but this can be overcome if everything is organised correctly. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">During this production I have gained much knowledge about how professionals work in the theatre industry. From researching different themes for a particular mood and finding out why so much input is needed from each and every member. I am aware that many people are needed from different creative roles for the most professional outcome. Before I started this course I was unaware why Copyright regulations were so important and how much a great impact this could have to a company if it is over-looked. I also learnt that measurements are essential of the props and sightlines of the stage because every person from the audience must be able to view each side of the stage. I know that the audience is key members to impress as everything you decide to make from initial ideas must have a positive effect to the viewers. It is also important to be ready to be criticised by the client as it is their job to ensure we are on the right task and making everything appropriately according to what they prefer. I was amazed to see how accurate the initial drawings of ideas looked to the final pieces. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="MsoNormal">If I could do this again, I would love to get involved into costume design and creating different costumes to show a certain status and personality. As well as this, if I had the permission to I would like to develop my lighting skills and be in control by experimenting and creating something unusual. Overall, I felt confident and enthusiastic about this experience where I identified many pre production skills, the personality to carry this task successfully as well as backstage management. </div>Mandeep Cheemahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01832819542479396776noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5612948604188225442.post-31616307506551834652011-01-05T19:31:00.001+00:002011-01-05T19:34:05.860+00:00Audience Feedback<div class="MsoNormal"><span class="apple-style-span"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS';">With our client we discussed and decided we wanted the target audience to be students, families and members of the staff because performing Little Shop of Horrors mostly suited this target.

For any company it is essential for them to want to keep viewers to keep coming back for more than one experience. Whether the production is cheaply built but very successfully performed to the target audience or expensively built but not communicating to the audience they will feel let down because they could not participate and feel confused as the performance was not what they expected. As the target audience for the performance located in the school are students it would be appropriate for their families to watch the evening show with them. Therefore, I make sure everything the team and I make will be liked by both target audience. Instead of focusing on if they will find humorous to the quirky ideas it can be better if we make sure the designs make the families and students feel a nice evening together whilst watching the performance. </span><br />

As actors were sitting backstage anxious for the performance to begin one of my role was to guide families and students to the hall. When the performance begun I took the responsibility to ensure team members and I was aware when to change the scenery props and to do this quietly and efficient because there is a wide audience behind the closed curtains. Even though, this was rehearsed many times, because of the fact that this was the real performance when I was positioning different props where they should belong I felt tense becuase I knew I had a very quick time-scale to complete this in. It was also important that everything is moved around safely whilst the props are being transferred. The prop plant Audrey which involved a person to wear it as a costume as he was controlling the plant I took the duty to make sure he was in good health by getting enough of a break when he needed to. This meant handing a bottle of water and frequently asking if he felt safe.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;">From this experience I learnt how to communicate with members of the crew and also stay organised by ensuring all props are there.

It was best if this life size was worn by a person who will be in charge to function movements from the huge terrifying mouth to make the prop seem life like. We had to consider the following:<br />
Measurement of the plant.<br />
How will this plant manually be able to act life like?<br />
Will the person be hidden inside the plant to make it look as realistic and effective for the audience?<br />
Because the prop will be big and quite heavy how strong will the person need to be to hold the plant for a lengthy time?<br />
This includes, which safety considerations must we be aware of to ensure the person behind the plant is unharmed.<br />
Also which type of material will be included while the plant is being held? E.g breathable cotton.<br />
<br />
As some team members were taking measurements of the plant using a person for a template so they will be able to fit into the final creation, additional features were being designed by others such as the big plants leafs and flower pot. This was done by using a variety of materials such as paint and coloured tissue paper.<br />
<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Creating a layout of the stage with measurements is important as it helps us recognise where the props are positioned for each set change. This enables us to see sightlines for the audeince and stage blocking as we have to ensure actors and objects are not overcrowding each other. The measurements are important as it shows how big each props can be to fit on the stage. For each different set change it was significant to rehearse the performance as much as possible to be able to ensure which props are including for different script sections of the story and helps the crew members memorise the script. This is essential in any production as measurement designs gains knowledge of structures and the layout of the show and helps run the performance smoothly. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Therefore, the set of the dentist should look terrifying. Also, the chair should be easily maintained and cheaply built because of the budget. I have researched images of dentistry chairs to help me identify the perfect chair which looks frightful to sit on. <br />
<br />

This chair looks great as it is from the origional musical. It demonstrates terror from the rusty sides and there are componenets attacthed on the edges. As well as this, it does not look like a typical dentistry chair. <br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0MP_BEzFVZCUuQ5lFoQJBvgtU25RBgoJbe3mGOnhScxmX39yrb4PdiSryuYOJXjMRC5RbaWLKegdUBnrAYu1PQd0-OLN36gbt0sdmmlF8twIvS57S2P_bNcjqD7vmnQGe-AQePnHbV96C/s1600/chair1.bmp" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="235" n4="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0MP_BEzFVZCUuQ5lFoQJBvgtU25RBgoJbe3mGOnhScxmX39yrb4PdiSryuYOJXjMRC5RbaWLKegdUBnrAYu1PQd0-OLN36gbt0sdmmlF8twIvS57S2P_bNcjqD7vmnQGe-AQePnHbV96C/s320/chair1.bmp" width="320" /></a></div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I particularly like this chair because it has blood stains splattered all over the chair which emphasises how dreadful this scene would be. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

This chair includes all of the correct steel colours which looks rough to sit on. Also, chains are down from the side which is a sign of panic. <br />
<br />
Looking at the images I have researched the requirements that would make the dentist chair for the set most suitable and effective.<br />
<br />
<strong><u>The Dentist Chair:</u></strong><br />
<ul><li>It may include harsh colours which are black, silver and rusty gold.</li>
<li>It could have blood stains all over the chair as well as the walls in the dentist set.</li>
<li>Chains can be hanging from the sides of the chair which are loose. </li>
</ul><br />
<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">These are the pictures of the final dentist chairs. This included loose objects hanging loose from the chair like the images that I researched. Also, foil was a cheap but effective way to represent steel and rust. Red splattered paint was splashed too which made the chair seem much more frightfull. In my opinon, I think this looks great and sends a message accross to the audience that it was not any ordionary dentist. </div><br />

For example, the colours that frequently appeared were black, green and red. These are powerful colours which show relevance to the story line as Little Shop of Horrors contains red for blood, green for the plant and black for the dingy lifestyle. Therefore, I have decided that I must include these colours for a greater effect. As well as this, the typography font used in most posters are spooky looking with dripping effect. I think this is great because it is eye catching to read. The information must be organised into sections and the layout of the image and text should be clear and balanced. Some colours such as yellow may be difficult to read unless placed on a darker background. Therefore it is important to remember to pick colours which complement each other. Because the performance will be in school including students as actors we have decided it would be most suitable as students and their families to be target audiene. To persuade people to come see the performance posters must look relevant to the target audience. These posters will be stuck all over the school building to attract as many viewers as possible. </span><br />

</div>I drew two sketches of what the final poster can look like. I like the first idea because it portrays the poverty backstreet in 1950 with the brick background. It also includes musical notes to show it is a musical with some of the characters who look scared and screechy as they appear to look at the giant plant. The information is positioned at the bottom as school students are most persuaded visually by looking at a larger scale image which can hook their interest. However, if I was to develop this by adding colour it may look too overcrowded because there is a clash of too many images.<br />
In the second drawing the main prop of the performance is the plant therefore it is positioned in the centre looking frightful. Surrounded by it is the 1950 vintage floral wallpaper which will be slightly torn apart to show cheap maintained in that time period. The readers will be able to view the information positioned in the bottom. To develop this design I would create the title with a shadow effect as this was a popular feature as I researched posters for Little Shop of Horrors. In addition, people will be aware that this musical is quite tense. Also, as the main key is not to bore of the young teenage audience with too much text I can add short and snappy phrases to hook them to watch the performance. As well as this the use of relevant colours that will stand out which will make the performance a must see and excitable.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">This is the poster of my final design which includes aspects of my research. This includes, the balanced layout, copyright consideration and the effective style. As I was inspired by the shadow spooky font I like this as it represents horror with the red unsteady letters. The picture of Audrey the plant is presented in the centre of the poster which looks sharp and scary. Surrounded by the image are short phrases as I have written to communicate in the way which teenagers can feel comfortable reading by demonstrating it is a must see performance. As the text are all coloured differently I decided that the main background should be black because it will highlight the text but also shows there will be a dark side to this horror performance. If I was to re design the poster I would create a more creative layout, maybe the shape of the poster could be the plant and also have photo shopped images which looks cool and appealing to the target audience. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

One included the dirt and dullness of the story whereas the other is brought to life. We are able to see comparisons of the two as it is exciting to switch the scenes in the model box. Also, we have been cutting and gluing images onto cardboard which is placed in the model box. The group is now considering which materials will be added in the set to emphasize the stage. This included investigating how we can demonstrate to the audience that the set has changed by including bright lighting or petals falling onto the ground as the florist reopens. In my opinion, the set looks as it should be because one half of the story is very unappealing whereas the second part is much more attractive but still </span>glum<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal;">.</span></span></i></b></span></b></div></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxU_uuSFpWTtr7V7k3mtZCrtxJbfvYcvCERyTVqFFzdXdthtQpImNSQdYjQH2BEMtJJAJ3a7jUHWivFnIfqqKBYMLxnYdkpwBltgJd3ZaD3LrCCtaGGqibJ1kqNL3eIEj94iOdoRXqScVI/s1600/floor.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="133" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxU_uuSFpWTtr7V7k3mtZCrtxJbfvYcvCERyTVqFFzdXdthtQpImNSQdYjQH2BEMtJJAJ3a7jUHWivFnIfqqKBYMLxnYdkpwBltgJd3ZaD3LrCCtaGGqibJ1kqNL3eIEj94iOdoRXqScVI/s200/floor.jpg" width="200" /></a><b></b><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Members of the team created different set designs in a smaller scale box. I photocopied images from my 1950 Mood board and attached it inside the model box to visualise if it would look suitable as one of the main backdrops in the real production. Experimenting and exchanging images enabled me to recognise how the different sets needed a different scenery to portray the correct message to the audience making it clear for them to realise a change has occurred. From this, we could take the next step into developing these ideas by using creative materials such as fabrics, paint, and tissue paper. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

Therefore, shop signs were delicately put up. In ‘Little shop of Horrors’ the shop signs are vital for the audience as well as the set. For that reason, the set designers for the stage will have to make shop signs particularly for the florist.</span></u></i></b></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;"><b><i><u><span style="background: black; color: #cc0099; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">I am aware that, <state w:st="on"><place w:st="on">New York</place></state> in 1950’s meant most people were living in poverty and low working class. This also reflects throughout the film of Little Shop of Horrors. For that reason, I know the shop sign cannot be glamorous but include suitable typeface which symbolises a flower shop.</span></u></i></b></div><div style="text-align: left;"></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivNnLPlXTZWgj1jAfpe2qj_wF0y2xQHwqWXrgyNQOqwPL1v6q1knwGZOyMKIuhJwNLn_zkw_gxEra-UoC0fBlLoe4n0rF3NH58EB7fwSGnGNndYGPi1GqhNtlLwddqfpQcEz31S3DeFKKs/s1600/shop_signs.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" ox="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivNnLPlXTZWgj1jAfpe2qj_wF0y2xQHwqWXrgyNQOqwPL1v6q1knwGZOyMKIuhJwNLn_zkw_gxEra-UoC0fBlLoe4n0rF3NH58EB7fwSGnGNndYGPi1GqhNtlLwddqfpQcEz31S3DeFKKs/s640/shop_signs.png" width="185" /></a></div><span style="background: black; color: #674ea7; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 11pt;">This would not be a good sign because it is too formal. Also, it is not bold enough for the audience to notice. However, it has a shadow affect which mirrors the spooky storyline. </span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="background: black; color: #674ea7; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 11pt;">Even though, this shop sign stands out, it is too bright and cheerful for a 1950’s symbol. As well as this but, the colours do not reflect flowers but, heat and sunshine.</span><span style="font-size: 11pt;"></span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="background: black; color: #674ea7; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 11pt;">This text would not be relevant as the colours used is boring and contains two colours which are not matched with one another. In addition, this text would be too confusing to read.</span><span style="font-size: 11pt;"></span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="background: black; color: #674ea7; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 11pt;">In my opinion, I think the colours used in this font are appropriate as green demonstrates plants. Unfortunately, it would be very dark </span><br />
<span style="background: black; color: #674ea7; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 11pt;">meaning viewers will have difficulties reading and the lettering is too closely combined together making the text unclear.</span><span style="font-size: 11pt;"></span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="background: black; color: #674ea7; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">The reason why I like this colour is because, it is soft coloured and lilac indicates flowers. Also, it has a shadow which emphasises the affect. </span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="background: black; color: #674ea7; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">This was the chosen shop sign. I believe it is great as the colours are appropriate for a florist. It also is not too glamorous as it does not include rich colours. However, it still looks bold and stands out because of the bright green outline. The bright green outline shows lighting that many shops in old fashioned <state w:st="on"><place w:st="on">New York</place></state> displayed.</span><span style="background: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';"> </span><br />

Therefore, it is her role to require us valid information so we can make the props for the set as best as possible.</span></u></i></b><b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"></span></b><br />
<br />
<b><i><u><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: black; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; color: red; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Within the first meeting, I had a variety of information to be shared. I presented visual research which included a 1950’s mood board. This gave a clear knowledge of the kind of themes we were developing into. Also, I showed a list of the important storylines in Little Shop of Horrors that needed an outstanding prop to stun the audience. In addition, I showed her a poster which I designed as an advertisement to attract viewers for the show. Initial designs of the plant were presented as I experimented with different colours and materials to make an appropriate plant.</span></u></i></b><b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"></span></b><br />
<br />
<b><i><u><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: black; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; color: red; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Ms Jones really liked the colour schemes of black, green and red which was included for the posters. As well as this, she explained that it is significant that the posters met legal requirements of copyright. For that reason, I learnt I had to include legal wording on the advertisements. As I know that the beginning of the story is harsh and grubby but the second half is more glamorous but still has an element of poverty, Ms Jones, told us to ensure that the set designs for each scene is to get that message across as well as showing the contrast when the storyline changes.</span></u></i></b><b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"></span></b><br />
<br />
<b><i><u><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: black; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; color: red; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">This affected my design work as feedback from the client was essential so I could understand what my task was in depth. Therefore, I could ensure my work was accurate. Not only this but, I felt confident in what I was designing because I was aware of the requests from the client. Because of the fact that, I was able to portray ideas and creativity across to Ms. Jones I felt comfortable to make progress and develop skills.</span></u></i></b><b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"></span></b><br />
<br />
<b><i><u><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: black; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; color: red; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">It is important to discuss development with the client as she is the person who tells us what she wants for the play. Furthermore, situations may change along the way whilst in the design process. For example, dates and times may need adjusting thus new handouts of posters and advertisements need correcting before being displayed. Having regular meetings certifies that we are updated with the schedules and stay organised</span></u></i></b><b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"></span></b><br />
<br />

We are aware that the audience must see a dramatic difference in the setting as it changes to colourless to more joy. We are now planning to think about how the props and setting will stand on the stage. Also, the scale of imagery of the set is important. This means we need to ensure the shop signs and background images are correctly sized and placed right.</span></i><span style="font-size: 9.5pt;"></span>Mandeep Cheemahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01832819542479396776noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5612948604188225442.post-67910363771107145142010-11-25T11:58:00.002+00:002010-12-28T15:27:17.696+00:00Contemporary Designer- Bob Crowley<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;"></span><br />

For instance, having just done Phèdre, there was an empty stage, but into that I had to place chairs. And the process I went through to find the correct chair! The minute you put a chair on stage, it tells you a period, it tells you a culture, it tells you a civilisation – you can place that space instantly by the information that a chair gives you. We went through hundreds of different variations, and I wound up designing them in the end. It's the hardest thing in the world to design a chair! Somebody ended up calling them Etruscan, or something like that. I could deal with Etruscan – but Conran, I couldn't have dealt with.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: black; color: #f1c232;"><strong><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10.5pt;">Advice for someone wanting to do what you do?</span></strong><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 9.75pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm;"><span style="background-color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 10.5pt;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f1c232;">Persevere.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: black; color: #f1c232;"><strong><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10.5pt;">Can you put what you do into five words or less?</span></strong><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 9.75pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm;"><span style="background-color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 10.5pt;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f1c232;">I create other worlds.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 9.75pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm;"><span style="background-color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 10.5pt;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f1c232;"><br />

Their creative roll means they are required to select the style of a set to visually tell a story to the audience. This is supported with a team of directors and producers who give the production designer a brief on how they would like the final design to look. Within this exciting and open minded role, many responsibilities are indeed needed for a successful result. </span></b><b><span style="font-size: 9.5pt;"></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: black; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; color: #674ea7; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Qualifications related in the design areas of becoming a production designer are extremely important. The reason for this is they learn essential skills for the upcoming industry. It is a huge benefit for them to be trained in an art specialist university or school as this enables them to thoroughly gain knowledge specializing in 3D, theatre or film design which provides relevant skills. A design qualification allows the person to build a strong portfolio which shows imagination, creativity and understanding. Although it is possible to become a production designer without a degree they would need to prove they are a talented artist with an outstanding portfolio and establishments which show the person has worked their way up from an ability stage in the industry. Also, you would need to show you stand out from the crowd as a lot of competition is involved form aspiring artists around the world. Therefore, intensive work experience may include working in a theatre set design production and individual opportunities such as entering competitions demonstrate strong enthusiasm to become a production designer. </span></b><b><span style="font-size: 9.5pt;"></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: black; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; color: #674ea7; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Within pre-production a production designer must be analytical in what they are researching. This means, they must recognize & read scripts to understand a film, television and also the production process for marketing. This allows the design to visualize ideas through artistic and drawing skills so they are communicating their own thoughts to the client. It is vital for production designers to have an extensive knowledge of the historical styles. The reason for this is because, they must be aware of the particular time zone so they can visualize life in different centuries. Also, they can get inspiration from historic features. Organization is essential for keeping the art department in schedule as they need to manage the budget also ensure everything runs smoothly. It is their responsibility to be aware of the budget as they will be buying particular equipment and props within the required cost. They must feel confident in managing the production and be able to set out specific tasks for each crew member. It would be difficult to work with the director and producer if production designers find it difficult to share their thoughts and discuss civilly. Therefore they must be collaborative whilst communicating to the crew members and be respectfully prepared if the client is not keen on the design ideas. Production designers should be able to demonstrate technical skills. This includes constructing a small model of the set as this shows their developed initial idea in a more realistic form. </span></b><b><span style="font-size: 9.5pt;"></span></b><br />
<b><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; color: #674ea7; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: black;">They may be a gifted artist but can working under pressure over take them? Patience is necessary while carrying out several tasks which production designers are managing. To help them many personal qualities are appreciated. Keeping organised can reduce stress levels while carrying out a production. Also, an encouraging individuality helps keep the crew motivated and excited in the project they are participating in. As well as being artistic, creative and imaginative they should also have an eye for detail. Moreover, production designers need to be recognised for having the ability to adapt to any task given.</span> </span></b><b><span style="font-size: 9.5pt;"></span></b>Mandeep Cheemahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01832819542479396776noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5612948604188225442.post-70579602147599150872010-11-25T11:28:00.001+00:002010-11-25T12:42:30.507+00:00Theatre Production Roles<div align="center" class="separator" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: center;"><br />

I intend to do enough research to gain ideas of how the set may look. Firstly, I ensured I knew what the film was actually about before gaining ideas. Therefore, I watched Little Shop of Horrors so I could become familiar of the storyline and also note down the historic detail. I could also write down what shows the film is set in a 1950 New York theme. This helped me gain knowledge and I will be using this to make a mood board for inspiration and visualising historic detail.</span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A mood board is often an illustrated poster created by designers working in various creative industries to help them or their client develop a specific theme or style. This is done by combining images that has features or colour that the client is interested in. The outcome of a mood board is a collage which enables them to determine how they want their final product to look. Also the client can analyse the mood board and decide whether they like the main concept the board signifies. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As my task was to create a mood board for 1950's New York I collected images from search engines on the internet such as Getty images and Google. The reason why I used these research tools was because it was efficient and I can quickly recognise information on New York in 1950. For best results, it was important to pick out specific key words which are relevant for the mood board. Therefore I searched phrases such as cobble streets and decaying wood work. These words were selected from the mind map to help me select images.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Looking through the images I noticed the visual mood for 1950 New York was poverty and made aware of how life was for the working class people. Also, the colours were dull and uninteresting meaning life was often unhappy due to poverty. I could see from the images that buildings were poorly built as they contained cracks and dirt. The images I selected to be included in my mood board were chosen as they gave me inspiration on how the set design would be visualised. </span></div>Mandeep Cheemahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01832819542479396776noreply@blogger.com0
