Day: May 16, 2015

Everything is going to schedule! The boxes have been built, painted and are currently sitting safe in the scene dock! There a only a few items that need to be finalised before show day. It is probably not a necessity but I personally want to hand my final designs, ground plans and props list to our stage manager before our Get In on show day. This means that if there is any problems with anything I am in charge of, I know that there is the proper documentation on hand so rectifying the problem doesn’t become a problem itself.

Shown below are previews of the the documents that will go into the book. They have all been fully uploaded into the Set section of the Documents page on this blog.

First are my 3D plans of  the stage. These give the venues technician’s and idea of the stage and what they need to do to any what we as a production team can help with. For example, the legs and masking had to be brought down and Bars 1 and 2 of the lighting rig will have to be lowered so the boxes could be hung properly.

 

 

The final ground plan, which has been tweaked since the work in progress to be able to comply with Lincoln’s technical capabilities. For example the number of boxes upstage centre went from six to four, and the clusters stage left and right increased to five adn the venue only had lightbulbs in sections of five.

 

 

 

 

The final props list is also included as a check list for myself mainly so I can make sure that everything is set correctly and if we are desperately lacking in ribbon or if a prop has been misplaced and has to be sourced quickly before the show.

Everything is now together and ready for our Get in and finally, the show. I am incredibly excited and hopefully it all goes as smooth as possible!
