Tech Art Stage Types

STAGE TYPES
STAGE LINGO

This year's Tech Theatre class is focusing a great deal on theatre theory, as well as designing concepts for our upcoming school drama production.

One of the first topics the students learned about were the variety of stages and performance areas there are to act on.  

The 4 types of stages we learned about.
The students took notes off a Powerpoint and viewed a youtube video hosted by Krista Price that described the different types and uses for the performance spaces.

Today we went over the basic theatre terms and acting areas.
Rigging 
Batten
GOBO
Scrim
Cyclorama (CYC)
Taveler 


We have covered a lot this week and all this information will help the students design their floorplans next week.
