Props Needed

Wednesday 14th October 2009

Sian and I had to organise what we were doing on a weekly plan and know exactly what we were doing.
We have been asigned to create a Puppet box for are first main prop.
Today Sian researched shops of the 1930's so the actors can use the corrct bags on stage .
Though i went through the script and noted on a sticky note every prop we needed. At the end of the book was full of yellow sticky notes. I then had to write down on plain piece of paper the scenes and the acts when there needed so it was easier to understand then the yellow filled script.
Sian and i came up with an idea that sian would make a check list and colour coordanate the props , so we had the main ones in one colour and the ones that were easy to get in an other etc.

Also I had to research about the 1930's what shops were around in them times and the logo from that time. Sian then saved them so we could come back to them later and print them.

http://www.tiffany.com/, i used this website because in the performance annie receives a necklace from tiffany's.

I also researched Macy's because it was big make in the 1930's http://www.macys.com/.

We both had to have a meeting with the stage manager about the arrangments of props. We were talking to her about a prop that we were strugglig to find, So she helped us out but still had nothing. If we could still not find this prop wich was a wheelchair we will have to make one.

I feel Sian and I are both working well together as a pair , but are also talking on independant jobs well. At first i thought it would be easy then i realised all the stress so its still a bit confusing, but hopefully it should all work out fine and everything will get finished on time.
