Ive been working in vectorworks and drawing over the technicals and perspectives i showed at interim.
here are a few of my slides and images - i quickly threw into a jpeg file
Technical systems
figured out the lighting and projection systems and drew it into the plan, have re arranged the toilet and back of house area etc. i have edited and fixed some graphical elements of my plan. have blacked out windows to keep the room dark for projection and need to check out how to represent that.
Also been exploring and readjusting little bits and pieces for space planning to allow walking spaces between tables (for audience and waitors) and positioning doors to encourage good flow and access
Audience seating
have also adjusted the width of backstage (originally 3m wide) to 2m wide so i can fit another row of tables and chairs. have redesigned some elements of the table to function and fit more people. have also played with bent perspex to try model the language of the table, chair and stage
Navigation and exterior design
been drawing up some ideas for how to greet the audience before entering the building and have found some images i might use to photoshop in front of st annes.
i want to greet the guests with a mixture of traditional and contemporary garments - from pragues heritage aswell as visiting international designers. i want mannequins in the courtyard area and have mannequins throughout the city to show the way to lost guests (dorita mentioned its quite difficult to find a way to the site and the images ive been researching of prague streets plus google maps support this labyrinth).
these poses are good to point international guests in the right direction through pragues streets.
Projection/screen wall update:
also still trying to find some of the material that makes the scrim wall - email sam and dorita and found its called Sharktooths Gauze and in nz they are supplied by John Herber. his website is not that great and they don't have the material listed.. ive searched for similar fabrics and there are two gauzes but the images of his products never load and theres not much other info describing it
im waiting on him to email me back
in the meantime ive been playing with a piece of wide weave linen i bought in week2. might try to borrow some hessian cloth aswell
I am currently editing my brief.. that will be up soon
