If you would like more information about Director's Concept, please finish watching the Videos below.


Your assignment is to complete the attached worksheet (on your own paper) called "The Directorial Concept" and then follow the directions on the document "Vision Board for Directors" to create a Director's Vision Board of your One Act Play.  You will also have classtime on Monday to complete this task. Attahced are the two documents you will need to complete this task.

Hey all...this is your historical set design project!
Using the balcony scene from Romeo and Juliet, you have been assigned one of the time periods and places below:
1930’s Germany
1910’s Italy
1700’s Japan
1860’s Russia
1920’s Southern California
1300’s France
1800’s England
1600’s India
Ancient Greece
Neoclassic France
100’s Mesoamerica
Antebellum Southern US

With that in mind...

1. Research architecture of the time and place you were assigned.
2. Draw a ground plan and front view of the balcony scene from R+J set in the place and time period you were assigned. The front view must be in color and the set design must be drawn clearly to represent time and place.

THANK YOU!

Please draw a ground plan of one of the rooms in your home. These can be drawn to 1/4" or 1/2" scale (1/4" or 1/2" = 1 Foot). Be sure to show where all the furniture or other items are in the room, including doors, windows, etc.

In addition, please draw a front view of the same room, BUT YOU ONLY NEED TO DRAW ONE WALL. Be sure the wall has something interesting like a window, a door, furniture, etc. Also, this drawing must be to scale, as well, either 1/2" or 1/4". Neither of the drawings are in perspective.

Mr. Gillette's lecture is posted here and at the end he goes into detail about this assignment. If you have any questions, please email Mr. Gillette.

When you are finished, please upload both drawings here. Thanks!

Hey all...now that you have learned how to do basic hand sewing, you will use your skills to create a sewing project. You will be making a "pillow" or stuffed object using the supplies we distributed to you last week. Here are the criteria for the project:
1. Can be any shape that you wish
2. Must be made from a pattern (see examples below)
3. Must include a button and use one of the stitches you learned to sew in class.
4. Must use stuffing (we provided this for you, but you can use your own if you wish)
5. Be sure your project has tight seams that won't easily come undone; that it looks like the pattern when you are finished; and be sure any thread that shows is on purpose and therefore decorative and NOT just sloppy.

You DO NOT have to use the fabric we provided for you. You can choose to use other fabric you might have at home. Your pattern can be anything you choose and you can find one online or make (draw) your own. But, whatever pattern you choose, please be sure your final project LOOKS like that pattern .

WHAT IS A PATTERN? For our sewing project, we are defining a pattern as a guide or template you use to create your sewing project. For example, you may decide you want to make a pillow shaped like a bear. For your pattern you would draw out what you want the bear to look like, including colors, OR you might find a pattern online of a bear that you want to use. Once you have decided on a pattern, we will take you through the next steps in class.

Attached are some projects from last year that you might enjoy. If you see a pattern here that you like, you may choose to use that pattern for your own project. Please note that not all the projects and sewing patterns are next to each other. Also, I didn't keep copies of all the patterns.

WHEN YOU FINISH WITH YOUR PROJECT, PLEASE TAKE A PICTURE OF IT AND UPLOAD IT HERE. THANKS!

You will be creating a poster design for a one act play of your choice. Whatever you choose, please be sure you understand the play and can create a poster design that represents the play, including the time period of the play. Your design can be hand drawn or done on the computer using any program you wish. Your design must do the following:
Grab the attention of passersby/audience
Relate to the show/concept of the show/Time period, etc.
Have pertinent info including title of show, dates, times, ticket info, location
Have originality
Use interesting graphics, fonts, colors, etc.

Once you have read your One Act play several times, please complete the Google Form.

You will need to choose a One Act Play from the list of plays below. Once you have choosen a play, be sure to read it 2-3 times. From this one act, you will create your graphic design project, which has already been posted. Once you have selected your one act, please fill in the form below with the information.

1. Below are several posters we have used for shows here at MKHS. Please analyze these posters using the criteria posted below. Are they good advertising or not so good?

2. Please find another poster design from the internet. Post the image here and tell us why this is good advertising or not. Use the posted criteria to critique.

Find the errors on the lighting plot that is attached. There are three errors. When you find them, use the chart to explain what the error is. Then explain where the error is on the plot. To do that, explain what lighting position it is (eg Electric 1, House Right Tree, etc) and the light number (the number on the fixture icon). Then explain why this error would cause a problem for lighting a show.

Fill out one section per person in their presentation

1. You are going to turn in your light plot for the scene you chose from the fairy tale you chose. You are lighting the same scene that you chose to use for your morgue. Let your morgue guide your lighting. If you do your light plot in LX Free, make sure to export it as a jpg to turn in. If you do your plot by hand, take a very clear photo and submit that.
2. You are also going to be doing a lighting lab, which I explained in class today. You will need to take a picture of your finished lighting lab scene and upload it here. If you wish, you can take a screen shot of the light lab and submit that.

Your assignment is to create a Lighting Morgue of a scene from one of the following Fairy Tales:
CINDERELLA, LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD, SNOW WHITE, SLEEPING BEAUTY, THE FROG AND THE PRINCE, RAPUNZEL, JACK AND THE BEANSTALK, THE LITTLE MERMAID, HANSEL AND GRETAL, OR MULAN

Please follow the instructions Mr. Gillette discussed in class. You will need to upload 4-6 pictures and a short discription of the lighting you chose for the scene.

Lighting morgues due Monday, Dec. 7 for period 5 and Tuesday, Dec. 8 for period 7. Please upload your morgues here. Thanks!

Please upload you lighting morgue here.

Attached is an example of a lighting morgue that someone created. They were doing their morgue for a different reason than you and they were designing multiple scenes. You are only doing one scene from your selected fairytale, so you will not need this many slides. Also, she didn't need to do a description of her designs as they had already been approved. You don't need to write a lot, but you do need to justify your choices. I'm posting this example so you see how to put together a lighting morgue.

Hey all...for your final project in Make up design, you will reproduce the fantasy/gross/gory/skeleton/stylized picture you submitted for your makeup morgue. You can do this on yourself or on someone else. If you do it on someone else, you need to take a picture of that person before you start AND after you are finished, so we can see the difference. If you do it on yourself, please take a picture of your final product. Upload all the pictures here. We will make a slide show to share with the class once we receive all the pictures. DUE DATES: ALL PHOTOS ARE DUE ON SUNDAY, 11/1, 7:00PM!

THANKS, AND HAPY HALLOWEEN!!!!

Please follow the instructions for this assignment (see attached) and upload your Make Up Morgue here. Remember you only have to do TWO (2) TOTAL IMAGES: one of EITHER Gory/Gross, Fantasy, or stylized AND one old age, either an image you find or use the sketch we did in class. That's it for tomorrow/Thursday! But, the Fantasy, Gross/Gory, or Stylized image you do for this morgue WILL BE the image you are going to create on yourself or another person for the final assignment due on Mon/Tues of next week. Make Sense? In addition, I am posting a Skelton Make up Application example on here and you can use that, if you wish!!! 7th period...your morgue is due on Thursday.

A sound film, like we talked about in class, is a film that relies on sound effects to create a story. There is no dialogue, only sound effects and soundscapes. Your assignment is to create a short story that is told ONLY through sound without dialogue. In order for your project to be complete it must have the following:
1. At least one pre-existing sound effect you find online or from another source
2. At least one Foley sound effect that you create
3. Background or foreground music that you either create or pull from another source
4. Your sound story must be 1-2 minutes long
5. Your sound story MUST be an actual story with a beginning, middle and end.
6. It can not have any dialogue

Those are the MINIMUM requirements, but you can certainly do more, if you like. You may also choose to create a sound story that is ONLY sound and has no video component, if you wish.

Once you have finished your sound story, you can upload it here. Below are some examples of short films that are Sound Stories.

5TH PERIOD FILMS ARE DUE 10/22 AT BEGINNING OF CLASS
7TH PERIOD FILMS ARE DUE 10/23 AT BEGINNING OF CLASS

Your assignment is to create ORIGINAL sound for a 1 minute animated or short film. Attached is the animated short you watched in class, with and without sound. If you wish to use the film we are posting, that is fine, just use one minute of it. But, you can create your own animated or short film, or find a 1 minute short film online that you want to use. If you use an already created film, BE SURE YOU STRIP THE SOUND FROM THAT FILM FIRST AND THEN CREATE YOUR OWN SOUND TO ADD TO IT. HAVE FUN!!

HELPFUL VIDEOS FOR SOUND...PLEASE LISTEN TO AT LEAST TWO OF THE VIDEOS/RADIO RECORDINGS THAT WE DID NOT LISTEN TO IN CLASS.

Hey all....here is your SOUNDSCAPE assignment which is due at the beginning of class on Thursday for period 5, and Friday for period 7. Period 7, I will explain this in class tomorrow.
ASSIGNMENT: Please create an original image (draw a picture or create one with a computer program) or find an image online for which you can create a SOUNDSCAPE. Remember: a SOUNDSCAPE is the sound which is created for a particular environment. Ultimately, the sound starts to tell a story that goes along with the image. For example (and in the example below), if you draw a picture of a beach scene, you would expect to hear sounds of waves crashing, children laughing, seagulls screeching, lifeguard whistles, etc. Your SOUNDSCAPE only needs to be about 45 seconds long. We will share these during our next class meeting.

I have also included the SOUNDSCAPE we heard in class.
Thank you!

So, since you don't have a physical locker this year, we thought it would be fun to get to know you by having you design a VIRTUAL locker! Click on the links below for instructions, my locker (for an example), a blank locker for you to complete, and some helpful links to help you create your VL. We will give you some class time on Monday/Tuesday to work on your locker. You will share your virtual locker during class time in small groups on 8/20 (periods 3 & 5) or on 8/21 (period 7). Your VL is due at the beginning of class on Thursday, August 20 or August 21 (period 7). Also, Period 7, I will go over this locker project during class tomorrow morning. Have Fun!!
