separated into groups to research theater design and typology for the usitt ideal theater competition, which will be the project for the remainder of the semester. my group is working on the house/auditorium. we will be investigating the relationship between the section and plan of a theater house, lighting design, sight lines, acoustics, set design and audience circulation and accommodation, through a few different case studies. other groups in class are looking at the lobby/site design, theater history, theater typology, backstage requirements, space accommodation, past and current theater technology, and one group is looking at our campus's theater (the brooks center). they are looking into how it accommodates clemson's theater program and highlighting the good design practices and also flaws (such as the auditorium having a tin roof= awful program quality when it rains)
we then talked about our studio's branding for the presentation. current plan is to create an infographic of a theater, showing which piece of the theater we are talking about, and a large timeline highlighting different pieces of the theater in history.
presentation friday!
