Over here at our projectionist’s site.
Playing now at my university theatre through next Saturday.
At the end, you get a glimpse of the set I worked on (Prop Master/Scenic Carpenter for this show) and the projections and it is amazing.
Please, please, please watch.
I am so proud of this show.
The best damn prop lute that you’ve ever seen.
Made for a middle school production of “Once Upon a Mattress”.
I had less than two and a half hours.
My TD is painting it tomorrow.
Since it’s getting close to summer internship application time?
Also, has anyone done a computer-generated portfolio to send via e-mail at all?
If so, what format did you use?
Spray painting those white things (Nine foot tall jail cell units for Hairspray) behind me black… all the while I have Asthma… My left eye is still slightly swollen (thus, glasses) … The respirator is one size too big for my face (and I spaced about putting the pads on the filters for about an hour, this is before I realized it)… It’s 95 degrees out… AND humid as fuck. Fuuuuunnnnnn.
Four days until opening.
Queen of Hearts Throne.
I put in the red upholstery. After this picture I added some red upholstery in the rectangular panel as well.
The trunk (you may remember from this post) I poured my love into, all finished up. Now it’s off with a tech that pushed it onstage because I don’t have room in my car to take it back with me.
I had to cut out the back of this trunk because four kids have to pop out of it. I decided to coat the inside with Muslin and Gaff because I didn’t what the old antique chipping grossness to get all over the children.
Still have to paint it and make it snazzy though!
Flower hell:
Arranging, Taping, Cutting, Gluing, Ribbon-ing, Bending, and Bedazzling.
For Will Rogers Folles (Wedding Bouquet).
On a side note: I now know that I can make wedding reception centerpieces, bouquets and arrangements all on my own. As my prop master said:
Oh god, if I ever get married… “NOW all the arrangements are perfect, the set dressings are wonderful, things look beautiful- no NO! NO ONE TOUCHES THE PROPS- Arrangements! I mean ARRANGEMENTS.”
