Tuesday 29th November
Today we were focusing on the job roles within a theatre company. Specifically, we were looking at costume designers/wardrobe department.
The task that we were set was to create a character out of the costumes and props that we had in the props cupboard at college. We were put into pairs and we had to agree on who was going to be the designer and who was going to be the model. Me and Angel were partners, I was the model and she was the designer. We were given a short brief on the character which we were to create using pieces of costume and props. We were asked to create a female pirate from London. For the outfit, Angel dressed me in a shirt with a dress over the top. I had a scarf around my waist and held a parrot in my hand. When we had finished and the outfits were ready, we presented the outfit to the director and the assistant director. We were asked some questions on the outfit and then were given feedback. The aim of this task was to give us an idea of what the job of the costume designer is like. One person in the group may take on the role of the costume designer when we decide on roles for our theatre company.
As everyone in the group was not present this week, we decided to move the production meeting to next week. This meant that we were set homework which was to make sure that we had researched our job role and which other job roles we would work closely with.
