1. GC3: Working With Others
In this production our task was to
build the set for the production of
“High School Musical”. Our group
was responsible for the flats of
the set, posters and flags and the
interior (The corridor). Within our
group we decided to delegate
parts of the set that we was
responsible for. I was responsible
for the corridor section.
My original thoughts were to have a vending
machine and a trophy cabinet but many
implications occurred. I talked to the set
designer and we decided that a vending
machine would be too expensive and
pointless to rent. I could off made a trophy
cabinet however a trophy cabinet and a
vending machine would of looked to
crowded on stage.
So we ignored the vending
machine but because “East High”
has a rich basketball pedigree we
decided to stick trophies on top
of the Jocks lockers to spoon feed
the audience that the school has
a rich sporting pedigree. This also
fits in with the social context of
the school because if we stuck
them to the drama lockers it
wouldn’t fit in with the social
context.
