https://padlet.com/thelittleraichu/memoryteam The stages of the creative process. en-us 2016-12-08 03:06:29 UTC 2016-12-08 03:47:18 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Moderncam.png thelittleraichu https://padlet.com/thelittleraichu/memoryteam/wish/142459772 As a part of the memory team I was challenged with the task of taking in information to write up biographies for the actors and producers, take process photos throughout the time we were working on the show and to create a board displaying everyone's head shot photos and bios. I was inspired by the boards with photo's and bios at the back of the back of the drama room. The one labelled "The Breakfast Club" looked really well done so our team drew a lot of our inspiration from that. The inspiration for the bios came from what everyone was telling us through a google form our team sent out to collect information.]]> 2016-12-08 03:15:50 UTC https://padlet.com/thelittleraichu/memoryteam/wish/142459772 thelittleraichu https://padlet.com/thelittleraichu/memoryteam/wish/142460112 Our team worked together to create the google form for the bios with the idea that everyone's biography would hopefully be the same length and that they would be somewhat similar but still unique. This worked well in the sense that they did come out with similar information however a lot of people seem to have been too busy or too lazy to fill out the whole form. This meant that some bios were really long and some pretty short. We also worked together to come up with a plan for our board. We ended up classifying the head shots by colours and assigning common colour backgrounds to the photos of the people who would be often seen together on stage during the performance. Then we had to pick a backdrop, me and Illahi were looking all over the drama room for something we could use and in the end we liked the plain cork background the best because the black cloth wasn't big enough to cover the whole board and the cork looked better.]]> 2016-12-08 03:20:51 UTC https://padlet.com/thelittleraichu/memoryteam/wish/142460112 thelittleraichu https://padlet.com/thelittleraichu/memoryteam/wish/142460155 Our plan was to get the google form out on the google classroom for people to start filling out as soon as we could so that people would have enough time to finish theirs. It was posted on October 21st. We were hoping to get the bios done and head shots taken in the first week of November, this however proved to be difficult because people weren't filling out the form and not all the costumes were ready by the time we wanted the pictures to be taken. We had to be patient but in the end we got everything together on time. We still had enough time afterwards to plan out the design of the board and work on putting it together before the show. We had also planned specific times where certain people would take photos when they weren't on-stage.]]> 2016-12-08 03:21:27 UTC https://padlet.com/thelittleraichu/memoryteam/wish/142460155 thelittleraichu https://padlet.com/thelittleraichu/memoryteam/wish/142460178 We had to experiment with the right times to take pictures and I personally know I had to explore and experiment with the camera settings because it confused me and I wanted to take the best shots possible. We had to find times where there was a big enough gap of space that people weren't on to alternate between who takes the pictures.]]> 2016-12-08 03:21:46 UTC https://padlet.com/thelittleraichu/memoryteam/wish/142460178 thelittleraichu https://padlet.com/thelittleraichu/memoryteam/wish/142460208 After some pictures were taken, most of the biographies were written and the head shot photos were also done it was time to put our work together. Illahi kindly printed the bios and head shots for us to place on the board, I helped arrange the pictures and passed them to my team members to attach them. Amira printed a cobra for the board and Shadai helped staple all the pieces to the board while Illahi helped me with picture placement and holding the board still.]]> 2016-12-08 03:22:15 UTC https://padlet.com/thelittleraichu/memoryteam/wish/142460208 thelittleraichu https://padlet.com/thelittleraichu/memoryteam/wish/142460242 Before the show some last minute touches were added to the board. The cobra for example was a last minute add-on that Amira suggested. I think it added a nice touch. The title "The Curse of The Cobra's Kiss" was also done shortly before the show. Some head shots had to be sent in for those absent on the days the photos were taken and some last minute bio edits happened before printing as well.]]> 2016-12-08 03:22:44 UTC https://padlet.com/thelittleraichu/memoryteam/wish/142460242 thelittleraichu https://padlet.com/thelittleraichu/memoryteam/wish/142460272 Though I didn't get to see the audience's initial reactions to the board when I told my friends and parents that I helped make it they told me that they thought it looked well made and they enjoyed reading a little bit about everyone involved in the making of the show.]]> 2016-12-08 03:23:09 UTC https://padlet.com/thelittleraichu/memoryteam/wish/142460272 thelittleraichu https://padlet.com/thelittleraichu/memoryteam/wish/142460289 Looking back I think our team did a good job of getting the board put together and showing off everyone's talents and skills through their bios and capturing their character well through the photos. We collaborated well and I'm glad to have met the people I was working with. The comments on the board reassured me that we did a good job and that we were successful.]]> 2016-12-08 03:23:33 UTC https://padlet.com/thelittleraichu/memoryteam/wish/142460289 thelittleraichu https://padlet.com/thelittleraichu/memoryteam/wish/142461565 For examples of what was produced please refer to the written bios on the board. I helped a lot in the making of the bios and was responsible for a large portion of them. The photos that were taken are on the camera in the drama room, I do not have them so I cannot add them here, sorry for the inconvenience. As for the board example, the board we were inspired by is at the back of the drama room.]]> 2016-12-08 03:44:57 UTC https://padlet.com/thelittleraichu/memoryteam/wish/142461565
