Midsummer nights dream week 2 part 1
April 28, 2009
Currently I’m in the rehearsal room watching the mechanicals, or artisans as they’re occasionally called, have a rehearsal they organized themselves. It was a bit strange hearing their “full voices”, it seemed very loud, and I had to remember that they will be on stage and further from the audience than I am. I’m still working out exactly how Mark’s method of working will be, as he’s still working on speech for the most part. It appears he might be allowing the cast to move freely while saying their lines and working it out from there.
On another note, I feel that having the itouch in a place with a good wi-fi connection seems to be making me use it more. I’ve done some more research for Mark on it, have been useing twitted more and being able to check my emails easily and regularly,although I’m in rehearsals, is useful.
I’ll have to have a look tonight for some apps that will help me in the rehearsal room
How good is having Wi-Fi in the rehearsal room? It was great to seeing you use it to help your cast and director the other day. I can really see this type of DSM aid becoming common place in the very near future. While things are quiet in rehearsals, try to investigate other uses like (as you mentioned) investigating apps etc…
Understanding how your Director works is crucial to developing a relationship which is conducive to a productive relationship. The earlier you can do this, then the more time you have to raise the standard in your working environment.
