Answer these questions:
1. Why is it important to consider everything that is put on stage and seen by the audience?
If there is one tiny mistake or something is not created as flawlessly as possible, the entire scene can be ruined. Props and backgrounds
contribute heavily to the authenticity and quality of a musical or play, and everything on the stage matters when it comes to the essence of a
show.
2. What does Bunny Christie (Designer for the National Theatre, UK) suggest you write down about each scene before you start
designing?
Bunny Christie, when faced with a new production, writes down every kind of scene, who is in that scene, what time of day it is, what time
of year is it, what is happening in the scene and any additional notes.
3. What does Bunny Christie do for research when starting a new design?
Christie will explore the aesthetics of films, photographs and other media that could potentially share the same visual language as desired
for the design. She will create multiple of these in order to find the best one.
4. What is the difference between drawn stage designs and model sets?
Model sets allow designers and tech crews to understand the mechanism of the life-size set, as they are able to finalize how the sets move
and how doors open etc. They are able to visualize how characters will maneuver around the sets and see the production come to life, as
opposed to seeing multiple viewpoints of a set through drawings.
