week 3, wow how time flys. It flys FAST, that how it flys. so fast and we only have 2 weeks left untill our production of 100 is put on the stage at MIPAC. Its freaking me out, but im so looking forwad to it. IT IS GONNA BE GREAT.

SAC
I am not sure if the sac was this week or last, i do believe we had our last period of our sac on monday. I sort of understand what context is, and how interpreting the context changes the choices and effects of different contexts within the play. historical context can change the social context. I also enjoyed my question 3, as i choose to talk about costume and the pros and cons of it. It gave me a choice to sum up both sides of the argument, plus i was able to draw picture LOL. Im a simple kid who like drawing, the drawings are important as they enable the judger to associate a visial componet with the writen part of my question 3.
My only problem with it was I think that we should of had the sac closer to the play as some thoughts had left my mind as there was a gap between the play and sac, and those who through the rubbers and paper at tasha should fail LOL. YOU MESS WIF TASHA THEN YOU MESS WIF ME, SO BACK OFF LOL.

SET

WINDOW WALL
well set this week has been busy on the behind the scene work, as tasha and i had a 1 hour phone call about set and our choices of curve wall with a gap and a pannle behind with a circular window in it. A colabiration of two set ideas, my angled pannles and tashas curved wall with a window yay. Tasha and I also spent some time talking about weather we have a white cloth over the window or a glass effect??? we also then went onto the idea if we have glass would it be clear-opaque or frosted and that led us to talk about using a thin perspex from bunnings that would be about 5$ and if we wanted it frosted then we could use a laminate that i have already to convert clear glass into frosted window glass. If we go for the perspex that bunnings have it is thin enought for us to use as it is lightweight and comes in different shades and tones.

CURVE WALL
The curve wall wood specifications are compleate and after talking to cooper we will have them next week, so we can build most of it yay. It will be 3m hight by 6m wide and 1m deep and made from a pine frame. however to save money we are re-using the same 3mm ply of Fame so we have to wait until FAME is over before we have the ply needed.

BOXES
there have been some problems with the boxes. There has been lack of communication between the directing team and what they envisioned for the boxes and the set team and what they have determind for the boxe. however that problem has been worked out as tasha and i had a chat and i spoke to lisa about it and its all cleared up. For the boxes we are having 2 rectange 750 mm heigh 900 wide and 450 deep, and two smaller squares

AUDIO
i will come back to as i wish to finish sophies music, but this week it has progressed so far, and its really close the music has be chosen for ketu 2 tracks, Alex and Nia 3 tracks and the Void has 2 tracks. The sound affects are proving harder to find, but slowly im finding things, very slowly. I also spoke to Steph W about doing the voice over for the french comentator and she seems happy. that meens that i will need to book a time with Mr Carrick to record the tracks after FAME, and also Erica i’m going to get your dialogues for the tube scene pre-recorded as will be easyer to do, and we will also have the mother for sophies second memory recorded as it may be easyer to do rather than from the side as you mite no be able to see Gemma and that could cause problems.
Oh Josh the briefe meeting we had really helped alot as it ment that i could talk to you and get your ideas allowing me to go futher and collect more audio tracks.
