Reflection of what i have learned this unit about the director's note book

A director's vision is the command, direction, and center of the whole stage and theater. A director's vision usually includes:


                      Summary/description of play
                      Influences (other plays, other directions)
                      Main ideas / theme to focus one
                      Characters:highlighting importance
                      First impressions
                      Inspiration: (image, sound, videos)
                      Staging the techie
                      impact on the audience
                      staging/tech ideas
                      Love and enjoyed the show
                      historical context
                      current context
                     other people's choices
                     settling
                     contrast
                     Style (color, theme, tone) design
                     Innovation and new


From my own understanding, a good costume is too pretty to put it one the table.

Linda Li’s Director vision

Linda Li Mrs. Guarino IB Theater HL 23 October 2018 Linda Li’s Director Vision of The Caucasian Chalk Circle     When we cheerfully completed the play The Caucasian Chalk Circle last year in the Black Box theater, the images and the script were stamped into my brain. The Caucasian Chalk Circle was about a peasant girl, Grusha who rescued a baby, Michael, and became a better mother than its wealthy natural parents, George Abashwilli and Natella Abashwilli. For the particular scene that I have chose from the play, which is the scene that Natella screaming and fighting the judge Azdak because he decided that Grusha would be Michael’s official guardian and her own property would be taken for public usage, I have decided to plot the scene again by in a independent and different way. Additionally, I was inspired by Mr. Aronson’s style of arranging the scenes of the play and the very aggressive and powerful image of Natella Abashwilli who is one of the most important i...

Love Is Complicated Ideas based on stimulus The inspiration for our devising group project titled, Love is Complicated is derived from the stimulus, the painting the hole on the wall.     We gathered our information and ideas about the theme of the play by recalling what we see and what we think of the art work. The very first thing that we realized/noticed about the painting is the distinctive red balloon. Obviously the balloon used to belong to the human figure on the left side and now the balloon is gone, we can tell this by looking at how the hand of the “human” is trying to reach for the balloon. Also the balloon has a shape of a heart, which is possibly referring to love. Combining love and the sense of distance/abandon, we’ve decided our topic to be about the sad facts of love. This piece has allowed the members of our group to explores themes of the following: The longing for love Heartbreak Unfaithfulness Betrayal Love is complicated ...
