End Of Week 1

At the end of my first week as being head scenic artist on the pantomime I was still feeling overwhelmed. I had a breakdown in my tutorial which was rather embarrassing and I felt I was still not living up to Sarah Crooks who was the head scenic artist on the pantomime last year. I didn't feel I was 100% organised, or new exactly what to do. I found it hard to make sure everyone had a job, knew how and what to draw up. Looking back I wish I had clearly told everyone how to label the back of the flats and I wish I could just be confident to be like 'please work a tad faster!'

Colour Mixing for the floor

During the first week we got a lot of drawing up done, which was a big task achieved as the quicker we drew up the flats - the quicker we would get the flats back from construction to paint. The second years (Rosie and Jillian) did a great job seeming they hadn't done much before! Lee (a fellow third year) was a whiz kid, he's really good at maths and I think his brain works more logically then mine and was drawing up flats like they were going out of fashion. Jude did some drawing up but she along with Rose had the fun and challenging task of mixing up colours! I think Rose found the colour mixing for the floor rather hard, and so did myself. However thankfully by the end of the week we finally got all three colours mixed, and started priming the floor.

Priming the floor!
