Problem Solving

Problem Solving 

Briefly, I recently had a meeting with the Level  2 Performing Arts and together we were discussing ideas and essentials for hair and make-up, also costumes, lighting installation and sound plus prop. However, as we discussed they gave a list for props and ideas for me to create their show come to life and I wanted that to happen in a short period of time. Whereas, together myself and the Level 2 Performing Arts should have been in the theatre weeks ago to be prepared for the show weeks away but instead it lead to last minute and everyone was under stress and pressure. Alongside with Nin, the tech work went well as during the short period time we had, it was challenging for me because it was my first time dealing with the lighting installation last minute, furthermore Nin taught me in other ways to record and use the lighting installation on Gio Console in a different way rather than using the buttons because normally I would use the buttons to change cues. During the rehearsals in the theatre I took some notes down as I didn't have the script until last minute and it wasn't much of a problem but I would have preferred to use the script as it's very beneficial for doing tech work.


 In addition, Nin taught me an easy way to use the Gio Console and this is called '10 definable motorized playback fader' and this was such a beneficial to use as controlling the lights during a performance. And I also learnt how to use the 'ML control' to change the intensity of the colour within the theatre lights on the Gio console and by learning this I had to use a colour which was red and changed the intensity into a darker shade of red instead of a bright red wash by using the palette select button and these display the number or label. Then opening the gel picker to create the intensity of the colour and recording the colour onto the cue for the production.
