Once that was\u00a0done\u00a0we where\u00a0behind schedule for recoding all\u00a0the cues. On\u00a0 day one of recording cues which was a Monday I worked on scene 1 to scene 20, which I hoped to get to on the Thursday I was in. Day two I\u00a0programmed cues 20 to 52 this took\u00a0abit\u00a0of time to record as we had rehearsal going on Which took\u00a0abit\u00a0of my time. On day 3 I programmed 52 to 85 cues of the\u00a0musi\u00a0c scene of honour, this music scene was the most painful and\u00a0abit\u00a0joyful at the same time. It was painful because I had to update cues, record more cues in-between\u00a0other cues. It was joyful at the same time because I learned how to operate the moving lights into a sequence, this helped me a lot as I only needed to press the go\u00a0button the rest of the cues would go after a certain wait time, that I would of given it, finally on day 4 I finished of all 102 cues for the\u00a0performance.<\/strong>\u200b<\/li><li><strong>My other role that\u00a0was given\u00a0was sound, Sound is also a key part of the performance, as it would also tell the story of what is going on in the performance. In-between the rehearsals I would go over the different sound cues and note them on the script, when noting the different sound cues in the performance helps a lot as\u00a0it\u00a0tell\u00a0when to turn on a certain track and to play it. Each track\/ music would need to be on a certain level of volume this is because there\u00a0is\u00a0some scenes of the\u00a0performance where the actors would talk over the music, or\u00a0their a\u00a0dramatic scene like\u00a0honour.\u00a0<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Who is my audience?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My audience audience  will be people who are interested into a Christmas, a Christmas carol   targets poor people who are trying to survive in cold night on Christmas eve. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What skills am I bringing to this production?

Another skill that I would bring to the production is that I am creative, this helps the performance as we need to go over the\u00a0different set\u00a0design and lighting\u00a0designs in the performance, the skill of being creative is important as it help me to think\u00a0o f\u00a0what lights I will be using for a cue.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200bbrief synopses: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A Christmas carol tell the story of a rich, grumpy man called Ebenezer scrooge who hates Christmas, scrooge was described as a mean-sprited\u00a0selfish old man.\u00a0 One\u00a0cold Christmas eve scrooge is unkind to the people around him, he refuses to give to charity.

At the same time, however, the Victorian era also saw the rise of beautiful and ornate architecture, public parks,\u00a0and gardens. During the Victorian era, poverty was a widespread problem in England. Industrialization had led to the growth of cities, and many people had migrated from the countryside to work in factories and mills. However, the rapid\u00a0growth of industry had not\u00a0been matched\u00a0by an increase in social services, and as a result, many people lived in poverty. The working classes, in particular, often\u00a0lived in overcrowded and squalid conditions, with little access to education,\u00a0healthcare, or other necessities. Moreover, the lack of\u00a0labor\u00a0protections meant that many workers\u00a0were exploited\u00a0and had to work long hours for low wages. Despite these challenges, however, many poor people during the Victorian era\u00a0were able to improve their circumstances through\u00a0hard work\u00a0and determination.\u00a0\u200b\u200b\u200b<br><br><strong>The\u00a0conditions that many character live in are poor,\u00a0cramped\u00a0and crowded apartments the inner\u00a0cites\u00a0often inadequate heating,\u00a0lighting\u00a0and sanitation.

In\u00a01821 dickens went to Giles academy in Chatham for about one year. Later that year he was twelve and he attended the wellington\u00a0house academy in London. At the age of fifteen, the family have problems that required him to return to work. And so, his last \u201cschooling\u00a0\u201cwas again. Later leaving school again.

Only outdoor theatres , such as globes uses natural daylights, However lighting can do so&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>much more than showing the audience what is going in the production. Lighting help tell the story by communicating the mood and atmosphere&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>to the audience. Lighting can also make&nbsp;a&nbsp;entirely new and strange world for the audience to experience.&nbsp;<\/strong>\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Role:&nbsp;<\/strong>\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&#8211; Light designer decides on what will exactly know how the lighting should&nbsp;be used&nbsp;in a production. After reading the scrip a light designer will&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>talk to the director and other management about how lighting can strengthen their vision.&nbsp;<\/strong>\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>All technical effects, Can&nbsp;be programmed&nbsp;in advance by a computer, so all the operator&nbsp;has to&nbsp;do is press a button \u201c go \u201c for that the next cue&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>can play. Every light on the stage will have a number which will correspond to numbered channels on a lighting deck, often at the back of the&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>theatre. The lighting operator can turn all the lights on and off and putting of many effects via sliders on the deck.&nbsp;<\/strong>\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The lighting department do a rig check every night before a show to make sure every single light is working right, including the one backstage\u00a0that the audience\u00a0cant\u00a0see, But the actors and other members of the team will see, This is because everyone who is\u00a0apart\u00a0of the backstage needs\u00a0to see what they are doing.

If a play&nbsp;is set in the past, the designers need to decide whether they want the costumes to be from a particular historical period. Traditionally,&nbsp;plays set in the past set in present day or a mixture of costumes from all different&nbsp; period. It will all depend on the message they want the&nbsp;clothes to convey if a designer decides to use a authentic period costumes, this can tun the play into a fascinating and believable&nbsp;portrait of a particular time.&nbsp;\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200b<strong>Sound, and sound effects create a sense of place for the audience in the production. When combined with a set, costumes and lighting, the\u00a0right sounds bring the play to life. Sounds play a really important part in creating the play world. Speakers are positioned all around the\u00a0stage to make the noises to audience hear as three dimensional and believable as possible. If actors hear a sound coming from a\u00a0television, there will be a speaker hidden inside it to amplify the tv sound. Music is vert important to the sound of a play. It will set the\u00a0mood of the production and it will tell the audience the story, for example we have the Christmas carol to do. So we get Christmas songs\u00a0and effects, The music in the production will tell the audience its about Christmas.<\/strong><br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>As soon as a production is chosen for the performance schedule, marketing and press people will be informed to start thinking about what sort&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>of audience. People in charge of marketing will put posters in a public place like bus stops or trains or colleges. When seeing a poster about a&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>production visually effect way of telling people about a play. The image on the poster will have been chosen to tell people something about the&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>play instantly and also to convey the overall mood. The image will be discussed and agreed with the director.<\/strong>\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>As well creating a great poster, College will be emailing people who have seen one of the plays before and telling them about new shows that will\u00a0be happing.
