In our tech production session today, we first started off with some Christmas carolling with Lena as a whole group which was rather fun and got everyone in the mood which was a good way top start the day. I think in doing this it egged us on to work in our tech class with Kim and it helps warm up the brain when working early in the morning.
After this we began finishing the props and parts of set for the snow queen on Tuesday, I attached another branch on to the smaller tree and then spray painted the tree silver to cover up the missing bits. We did this to make the trees look more icey and fit in with the scene of 'the robber girl' and it made it easier than hand painting them with a brush. Bethan made a start on finishing the slay which looked AMAZING! I helped her out a bit by adding newspapers on to the sides which she then spray painted silver. She then put tinsle around the edges of the open of the slay. Max, Emily and I started putting balls of tinsle on the branches of the trees to make it look more sparkly and easy on the eye.
The girls, Sarah, Jess, Lindsey, Abi and Polly all did thier bit in the crafts making more flowers, Sarah and Jess made some icecals to hand from the ceiling. Again this gave our scenes more of an icey/snowy/cold feeling and mood and added more imagination to the audience.
I think today we all made a good effort in getting the props and set done, including Kim with her DIY skills.
