Scenic Design

There is so much more to the world of theater than just the actors on stage.  There are designers and crews who spend months creating an imaginary world for the audience.  Thus far, Arts Track students have dipped their toes into the world of costume design.  Today, they also experienced scenic (set) design.  Students were asked to create scale model representations of a set that included some basic furniture and backdrop pieces.  The technical math involved in the process helped students apply algebra, ratios, geometry, and proportion--skills that will benefit them later in life.  Although they didn't have a lot of time for completing their set models, they still pulled together as teams and did a fantastic job!
