Week Four: Monday

All the elements such as performance, tech, art, make-up, and props help synthesize the two shows we have seen so far because they help explain the show more. Like the set helps explain where they are, the props help explain what they are doing, the make-up helps bring out the persons face and the performance helps explain everything!The elements are coming together great in ours. We are all now seeing our costumes and learning what we will be looking like on stage! I think that we all are doing well with the process of set and tech as well. Our set pieces look great and I don't think we have that much more to go. The tech is coming along too. Mr. Thor is doing a good job with it. Also we are now getting all of our props ready for our show. If one of the elements was missing I think it would throw off the whole play!

Week Four

I love my costume! I think that it really brings out my character in the play. I really haven't heard much about my make-up yet, but I am sure it will be cool. I think that this will help me with my performance because it will help me feel more like Mushu so I can act more like my character!

Hehe this is a very long website url but it shows the importance of make-up in the show that I picked which was Beauty and the Beast. It was important because it played a big role in the 'beasts' character because he needed a lot of make-up to actually look like a beast!

!Peter Pan!

"I BELIEVE!!!!" Ha Ha! I thought Peter Pan was absolutely awesome! My favorite character was Michael because he was so little and such a good actor for his age! Most of the play was good! Like the set, the actors were great, and the liveliness! If I were the director I would have casted Tinkerbell as a real person and not just as a little light! I think it makes it more realistic! I loved all of the set and lighting! It was all wonderful. Yes there is a connection between my earlier posts and the production! Anyways it was awesome and I loved it!

Week Three: Tuesday

The area of technical theater that I chose was sound. The website I went to learn more about it is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_design. This is because it shared lots of information like what place recognizes sound design which is The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences! It recognizes the Academy Award for Best Sound Editing! It was a great resource.

Week three:Monday

Personally I really want to learn more about tech and lighting! I also think the tech will play a really important role in Mulan because it adds a little pizazz to the scene. From what I have learned so far about technical theater I really love it and hope to be involved in it one day!

!STOMP!

I thought STOMP was AWESOME! It was so cool the way they all kept the same beat and drifted off one at a time and then went right back onto the same beat again. I liked the dynamics the best! I really didn't have a least favorite part of the show. The performers were great and it was awesome to meet them. I think I saw a little Greek theater in it although there were girls in it. Yes I learned a lot that would apply to Mulan. Like how not to be afraid of what you look like up there because, (no offense but in some parts they looked a little silly, but it showed that they didn't care what they looked like!) Anyway it was an awesome show and I thank Mrs. Tracy, Mrs. Laura, Mrs. Lindsay, Miss Kelly, Miss Anna and all of the chaperones for giving us the opportunity to go!
