Good Woman of SETzuan. Get it? Set.

Well it is a bit late but here it is. Last week (11th - 15th June) we pretty much did set designing and eventually got it finished.

The problem with this blog is that it is gunna be tiny. I mean for Monday (11th) and Wednesday (13th) all we did as a class was continue on our set design which was due in for the Friday, so each one of us was working individually so there is very little to say about it.

This is how I imagined mine would turn out.....It didn't
However I am going to say this, I really am not a fan of set designing, my artistic skills are at the level you would see in a 3 year old I really didn't enjoy it, I enjoyed drawing and planning the set. However creating the scale model was hell, at first I had this elaborate set design which would have lights and projections and everything else but instead it was more in the end a very decorated shoe box. IT DID LOOK PRETTY THOUGH. But I am going to admit that Set Designer is definitely not my most preferred role in theatre so I plan to keep my set deigning to a minimum in the future, I'll leave that to the others to do, in my head I feel like I am quite a creative person however tell me to make a scale model and my creativity begins to lack. But anyway it is done now and it wasn't too bad.

Friday (15th) was the give in day where we would explain and pitch our ideas to our fellow class mates, talking about the ideas behind each part of the set and what each feature would be. I felt I could explain it alot more than I could create it, I found myself in the end being proud of what I had achieved so I wasn't too dis-hearted, but this was clearly a project we all worked very hard on and we should all congratulate each other on being able to do this. Sure some looked better than others but each was a good piece of work and was clear worked on hard, so well done guys!

Really that was it for last week since pretty much we set deigned
