Been trying to upload yesterday's rehearsal vid and even tried emailing it to the dancers but for some reason the internet is playing up and still is now. Oh how I love to rely on technology.......
I have spent today, firstly adding transitions to my footage, which is now complete, then I touched up a few pencil marks on the wall in performance space, with some white paint. Nicola and I were about to trot off to buy 'proper' blackout polythene, which she calculated to about £50, when I decided to rebel and suggest we try bin bags first....if they fail, then we buy the real stuff. So we bought 60 Tesco bin bags, total: £3.48 and double sided sticky tape and normal black tape, Total of all: £6.47.
Nic was a bit scared of heights after seeing the the 3 ft ladder we dragged up from the basement so I got up there and covered the windows. We kept the bags folded and doubled them up, they worked a treat, how I love to cheat and get a bargain all at once! The only problem was that I couldn't reach the top windows and security wouldn't allow me to tread on the false walls so I used a stick and a lot of patients and got the job done. So the 3 windows in the space are covered and I will do the lower 1s tomorrow as the light is coming up from behind the boards. I left Nicola to do the far window in the little room but it's going to be awkward so might not get done.
Tomorrow I will hoover the floor and mop it before the dancers arrive. I removed a screw that was sticking up and will look for others to ensure the floor is as safe as poss.
I now have stands and speakers and just need a shelf for the projector and dvd player. The techs are cutting the wood once I give them measurements and then I will have to put it up
