How To Draw A Set Design For Theatre

Selecting the gear up

It'south important that the selection of ready suits the way of production and enhances it. The set designer must have an excellent working knowledge of the needs of the play. Their work involves creating multiple locations, sightlines for the audition and entrances and exits for the actors as well as dealing with any fix changes that are needed. They must design to support the action rather than for design's sake. A set that is overly cluttered might detract from the action and brand the actors' job more hard, rather than supporting them onstage.

The set designer usually starts by discussing sketches of their ideas with the director (and sometimes the cast). When the choices accept been made, they may build a scale model of the set, which is chosen a model box . This gives them an idea of what the real set would wait like and lets them brand any necessary adjustments.
