last class before performance

So, Memory stars this weekend.  What a way to kick off spring break.  I’m glad that other people have stepped in to help out with everything, especially people who have done this before.  I think it is extremely valuable to have people who have experience doing this tech thing especially since I was beginning to feel a little overwhelmed.  At least now, if the screen goes black, there will be less chaos, or maybe more… either way, I feel better.  I think that I’ll be operating a camera for the majority of the performance, which is something that I actually do feel comfortable with.  If I had to work the mixer or the switch, I might go out of my mind.  Maybe for the next performance.  I have worked a sound board before, but this is a little more involved than a high school musical.  I don’t think I’m quite ready for that responsibility.  Hopefully, we will hash out a lot of stuff in class tonight.  Maybe a little field trip to the blackbox? That would prove helpful.  My shoe thing didn’t quite pan out the way that I would have liked.  Mostly because I couldn’t procure a working camera.  I borrowed my dad’s cheap-o digital camera yesterday and started to take some pictures. I’m also trying to use some pictures from my library.  This camera doesn’t take the best video, and the logistics don’t quite work out, so I’ll deal with the stills for now.
