Big change and all go!

GI Joe
After the latest production meeting we have found that;
  • the file format works with the projection
  • the distance we need to project a good size image is in excess of 6 foot, which means that there is more chance of using front projection due to the size of some of the performance spaces
  • one of the current designs needs alterations but the rest are good
  • with the time between scenes more images are needed
So, six new designs are needed and the others need the dates and captions altering and there are two stands that I will be beginning to build tomorrow! I am also going to be hunting for the 'blackout' material on Saturday, so the schedule is going to be tight over the next few days but I am confident that I will be able to get it all done and in good time and good condition - made better and easier by the good fortune we had in using the University as the location for our production meeting!
 
While we were there the acting department were throwing away some set pieces from the last years productions due to lack of storage space, they were more then happy to let us raid what would have otherwise have gone in a skip! This has had the tremendous bonus of helping with finding things for set-dressing for our prologue and in finding the timber to build the stands in what they were getting rid of.
 
So now it is on to getting the designs done and finished and the stands built and getting the fabric!
