1. Stagecraft – Sylvan Hills High School

2.  Describe production style and stylization.  Identify and use the elements of design  Identify and use the principles of composition  Identify and use the principles of color in design

3. All production elements (costumes, scenery, lights, make up, acting) follow a common set of characteristics

4.  Historic periods overlap  Many styles exists at the same time  Elements of styles may be used to describe historical periods

5. The use of specific compositional elements characteristic of a particular style or period to create the essence of the period.

6. The process of conceiving and executing a plan: creating a stylistic plan for the production concept to be used by all creative elements of production.

7.  Line – a narrow elongated mark  Dimension – the length and width of a line.  Quality – Its shape, value, and contrast with surroundings.  Character – Its emotional meaning.  Shape – Produced when a line encloses a space  Mass – the 3D manifestation of shape. (Depth)

8.  Measure – judging the size of objects and their distances between.  Position – The location between adjacent shapes or masses.  Color – Generates physiological and cultural reactions.  Texture – Visual or tactile surface appearance or characteristics.

9. The cohesive unified manner of arranging the elements of design

10.  Unity – A stylistic plan to which all parts of the design follow. (Each part is logically connected to the production concept.)  Harmony – The blending of elements to produce a flow of compliment.  Contrast – The juxtaposition of dissimilar design elements. (stronger in serious plays – to show tension)

11.  Variation – Creates visual interest by removing monotony.  Balance – arrangement that gives a sense of restfulness, stability, or equilibrium.  Symmetrical Balance – (mirror image on left and right)  Asymmetrical Balance – (left and right do not mirror each other / Balance is achieved through contrast of elements

12.  Proportion – The relationship of the parts of an object to each other and the whole. (Western concepts of beauty are based on proportion)  Emphasis – Directing the audience’s attention to a specific place (acting areas)

13. ????????????????

14.  Hue – The quality that describes the difference of one color from another (Blue, Red, Yellow, etc.)  Saturation (Chroma) – the amount (percentage) of a particular hue in a color mixture. (Fire engine red – dusty rose)  Value – the relative lightness or darkness of a color (lighter = high value, darker = low value)

15.  Tint – a color with a high value (from a mixture of a hue with white pigment or light)  Shade – a color with a low value (from a mixture of one or more hues and black)  Tone – a color of middle value (from a mixture of hue, black and white)

16.  White light contains the various colors of light.  Pigments are materials that absorb certain colors of light and reflect other colors.  The color of a pigment indicates what color light is being reflected.

17.  Primary colors – hues that cannot be derived or blended from any other hue.  In light – Red, Green, Blue (all together make white)  In pigments – Yellow, Magenta, Cyan(all together make black)  Secondary colors – hues that result from mixing two primary hues  In light – Yellow, Magenta, Cyan  In pigments – Red, Green, Blue

18.  Any two hues when mixed together produce white (light) or black(pigment).

19.  Assignment  Using pages 99 – 100 (brown book), identify the usual or possible meanings of the specific colors listed: Yellow, orange, red, green, blue, violet, black, white, and brown.  Describe the style of your generation: clothes, colors, hair, etc.  List all of the complimentary color pairs that produce white light.  List all of the complimentary color pairs that produce black pigment.  Reminder: Design and Production Project Make Up/ Re-do Due by Friday.
