Drama & Aht

& Props

We will have a prop list later this week. I will email it out to one and all. Perhaps during spring cleaning you may find some worthwhile stuff for us????

Please, don't forget to vote on the music you can find down below on this page. And PLEASE, don't forget to memorize the script by next week.

And remember the homework for next week is to watch scenes for background actions in films and teevee and how actors listen to each other.

Next week, I am devoting Monday, Tues, and Wednesday nights to DRAMA.

The week after that is VACATION (yeah for the kids, eh?) and then STONE (more yeahs!) and then production week. We may need some parents and/or kids in during Vacation to help paint the sets -- actually screens made out of sheets. Anyone who is going to be around, please email Lyne.

As I told the cast and crew, we need art for the sets. We are going to take their drawings and blow them up via the schools video projector (Mr Cushman we will need access to that over the vacation week, please...) and then paint the art onto the sheets with fabric paint.

Tess and I have volunteered to do the art for the first screen as it is VERY integral to the basic honesty of the Rock Scene.

We were hoping that these could be done in art class, but since time is tight, I would like any cast or crew member who wants to help to do these at home. Make thick lines. Use a sharpie if need be. I want bold pictures up there on the sheets. Thanks. Please bring them in next week so we can select the set design.

The pictures should be landscape -- NOT vertical. 11 wide by 8.5 tall. Black and White thick line drawings.

  1. White (backlit screen)
  2. City Skyline
  3. City Brownstones Apt buildings w/ stoops (stairs)Google Harlem scenes or The Village New York or Lower East Side scenes for research
  4. A different City Skyline (this one will be "shorter")
  5. Country Scene
  6. High School hallway with lockers
  7. Modern Art Google images of Jackson Pollock (drip paintings), Andy Warhol, Claes Oldenburg, Jean-Michel Basquiat for research

Again Thanks!!!!

And PLEASE VOTE ON THE MUSIC BELOW!!!
