FUSING DESIGN ELEMENTS
The Aim is to merge the various design elements that will make up a
comprehendible and enjoyable play. The elements include, Costumes,
Setting and Lighting Design. These elements will be used to Shape the
Spines and Steward the Themes of the Play.
The spine revolves round a
privileged woman, banished from
the court that goes to the forest in
search for the apple of her eyes.
In disguise of a man, she nurtures
the people around on how to
blossom from their weaknesses in
other to make reasonable
decisions in their lives so the
returners eventually become
better than when they fled to the
forest.
SPINE OF THE PLAY
This is one part of the spine of the play that sets it rolling where the
fight scene takes place.• The Light Design is needed and set in such a way that The fight
scene brings out a unique mood as it established in between and different from a forest or palace scene.
• The lights need to be a dimmer than the palace scene lighting on with corresponding flashing lights set on the stage.
• The Setting Design has to be a mix of both realistic and non realistic scenery with flowery decorations with the impression it is in front of the Palace.
The Costume will be restricted to that of the Shakespearian era, Duke
in Military formal Costume, Men in Restricted High-class dressing.
Orlando and Charles wear Forest Costumes, similar to hunting Gears
while the women wear a flowing Gown Costume.
LAWN BEFORE THE PALACE
THE FOREST – ACT 5: SCENE 4
• this is the finally scene of the entire play where the themes fruits are
reaped from Rosalinda’s labor
• Here there's a wedding scene comprising of two marriages in the forest as
well as the announcement of Duke Fredrick’s abdication.
THE FOREST – ACT 5: SCENE 4 DESIGN ELEMENTS
For the Costume Setting: Duke Senior remains in Forest
Costumes while every other man is dressed in Linen and
cotton shirts. The women wear Muslim flowing gowns.
The Light Setting: Has to be very pale, to reflect what the
forest really symbolizes, freedom as well as the occasion for
the day.
The Set Design: For main forest scenes, actual large tree
props are to used along with the drop as well as decoration
using another drop of colorful floras.
DIRECTORIAL CONCEPT
It is a play about how human tendencies
could be flexible or can change within a
twinkle of an Eye. From a Vengeful Duke
returning to a Monastery to a Hateful elder
brother learning to love his younger one just
as they step into the forest of emancipation.
DIRECTORIAL CONCEPT CONT.
To Achieve Focus, Triangulation Focus will suit the major
characters for every other scene aside the wrestling and
wedding Event
The Director chooses grouping Focus for the Wedding
The Wrestling scene will have the actors aiming for a body
position focus.
DIRECTOR STYLEThe Idea of the Style has to be that of creative perspective –
allowing for the actor to be independent by making his/her
inputs while the Director has the final say after watching form
Different Angles. All these will be done while the acting
embraces a slow but rhythmic pace.
