Colour Brief - Finals

 Colour Brief - Finals

Creating the base/theatre itself:

When creating my final piece, I used foamboard and hot glue like I had originally planned, although to did show to be more trouble then I had originally thought. I had never used foamboard before, so trying to find the best way to cut through it proved challenging. In the end, I used a super sharp craft knife, and even then the foam board would pull apart. Throughout this process I followed the same instructions as previously followed, just making the entire thing bigger. 

Once I began creating the base, and the surrounding decorative theatre, I used the trial and error method. I measured it all up compared to the system itself, then stuck it all together. Creating this without a plan was liberating, and worked out really well, although for the future I should definitely plan and trial this out first. After the base was created, I decorated it and added the drapes, of which were very simply made. I used the same marker I used for my scroll and grey card, folding it up and sticking it to the support against the stage and the pull tag.

After ensuring all of the system worked alongside the theatre, I added the finished scroll and voila!

Finished piece:

Overall, I'm super happy with how everything turned out! The process itself took me 2-3 weeks to fully complete and although it was very tedious at times, I really enjoyed the process. Especially with the added surprise of fairy lights added. If I were to develop and improve it, I would definitely clean the whole piece up a bit more, and make the theatre itself look older. I would also paint the sides of the theatre to match the rest of the theatre, so its not so stick outish.
