It was the high school i was teaching at at the time the videos were made.

I'm very happy it helped. If there is anything else I can do to help, please let me know.

I hope it was helpful and that you did well on the test.

I would depend on what they are looking for and how many people there are. Most of the dance performances I have worked on the stage has been primarily empty, with large set pieces like flats of projection screens along the upper stage left and right areas, creating more negative space for the dancers to occupy. I have also seen a few that use a unit set with several different levels, but once again most of those were usually more upstage leaving the downstage empty. What type of dance show is it?

That's a really good safety tip to keep in might

That's excellent information to have, thank you!

I got here because there's not much out there online for set design and also I wanted to know how to create ceilings for sets haha

@@moremiad From what I understand very few set actually have full ceilings because if they did it would be much more difficult for them be lit. The ones I have seen and worked on that did have a ceiling usually placed it at an upward angle or created a suggested ceiling but had the playing area extend way past it to allow the light sources to reach them

I'm helping choreograph a contemporary acrobatic show. I feel lost trying to come up with ideas without knowing the environment will be there when we are on stage. I wanted to learn how to create a set and came across your video. Thank you for all the great info! Going to browse through your channel, but are there any other videos you can recommend that might help me in this journey? I've never done anything like this before, but I'm excited! Anyways, thanks again!! There's a page of my notebook dedicated to my findings and thoughts from this video!

@@ashlyncarlini2356 I would love to help in any way I can. I'm afraid I can't think of any videos off the top of my head, but If you want to send some specifics of what you're looking for to brandonl@mtaonline.net, I'll see if I can come up with anything that help you on this. I'm sure it's going to be amazing, and thank you for the comment.

@@ashlyncarlini2356 In the mean time you might find the second video I did on the elements of deign helpful. While the main focus of it is trying to show designers how to fill out a stage, I have also used it to help illustrate to directing students how to create blocking. A lot of the concepts, point, line, patters, and so forth are applicable to both forms of stage craft, so that might help give you some ideas. ua-cam.com/video/ZfcwVTSYXEs/v-deo.html

As I understand it, Naturalism is more of an offshoot of Realism. Realism, while focusing on telling stories that are closer to life and characters that behave more like real people, is still a dramatic form, meaning the language and presentation is still very theatrical. Realism attempts to create a version of reality on stage, where as Naturalism tries to actaully recreate reality. They way it was explained to me is like this: If a play takes place in a barn, A Realistic production will attempt to faithfully represent a barn on stage. Whereas a Naturalistic play says you actually have to have a barn on stage, complete with animals, piles of dung, and lite with lamps instead of stage lights.

@@brandonlawrence7947 thank you, yes that explains a lot
