25 July 2013 - Gatherings

The first full meeting of the cast and technical crew of The Thrill of Love at the Mike Barlow theatre. While the 5 strong cast went off to read their lines, Jules assembled those who will be involved as techies and stage crew in one of the meeting rooms at the YMCA.

Here we discussed costume, make up, props and set - all a challenge given the very specific colour palette chosen for the design of the production (or lack thereof).

Video was touched upon too, but specifics of these will be discussed at a later date. But even the brief outline had me defecating ceramic building materials, if you'll pardon the expression. The video inserts for the Players pantomime 'Robin Hood' last January took me into unknown territory video-wise and had me dipping my toe into the creative waters of the Final Cut Pro application. I can envision 'The Thrill' chucking me headfirst into the rapids.

All good stuff though and I am genuinely looking forward to working with a wonderful group of creative individuals.
