snow
Well, at least there is a nice snow this evening. Hoping to be hit a little harder so that my off campus class is cancelled tomorrow.
Urinetown...well i guess the shit finally hit the fans.
The show is amazing, and would be so much better if the sound guy didn't suck ass. Well, the sound guy no longer sucks ass because last night he got his ass kicked off the show. Our faculty member is now doing a the live mix of the mics and running the sound board. The board op was a designers worst nightmare...I believe the comment he made was "I can't wait till she leaves [reference designer] so i can mix the show for real." Problem is he can't mix worth shit. Things have to much bass, things are completely not level, way to loud, blah blah blah. The show is now 10 times for the better since he is gone.
Geography of a horse dreamer opened last night as well...good show. Lights are really nice. It might seem a little overcued, by really they have nice, smooth transitions and they draw you into the action of the play. The actors do a farely decent job as well. There is always room to grow in that department, I think in this case they are so excited to play ganster type guys, that they go full out and try to act like the reservoir dogs, and it is just a bit of over kill. I should read the director notes now that I have seen it and see what he intended.
I guess I am sound designing a show next semester, I am sure I will rip myself a few new ones for that.
Started doing my crew evaluations, I can be pretty mean, I am honest and I guess that is all i can ask of myself. A lot of crew to evaluate.
I am going to go home tonight and make CD's of show pics. Funny thing, I have only been to one photo call this semester, I am so anxious to get the hell out of here from the amount of time that I don't bother staying, I get my pics during tech runs and that is it, hope for the best. Urinetown I got some good shots, lysistrata I think i got some great ones, glass, well that was just to damn dark, chairs was the same thing over and over (one pic was enough) horse dreamer got some and will put them up tomorrow along with some nathan build shots. I forgot my cord to transfer pics to my computer so that is why the visuals are kind of lacking.
The freshman in the shop, amazing. I want them as my build crew all next semester, I would have no worries about the progress of the shows if I had them.
Well, time ti run, nite
