*Technical Drawing

In order to create a set design accurately and to scale, technical drawings need to be completed first. For our project 'Narrative and Genre' the set we will produce will be for the Theatre Royal in Margate Kent so we now know the size to build the set model.
This image is of the front arch, which has drawn to roughly a 1:51.6 scale, which I will convert to a 1:25 scale and redraw it accurately.
*Drawing scale = 51.63
*Drawing scale measurement x 51.63 = actual size
*Actual size  / 25 = 1:25 scale

Above is a photo of the Theatre Royal, showing the procenium arch.

Hi Tiffany
Have you decided yet which genre you are going to be working with? All these ideas have potential - the twisted trees and the drawing of the film noir aesthetic seem to be the ones you are most engaged with. When the decision has been made, then will be the time to pull the stops out and engage w=thoroughly with it. Be careful re. fantasy as it can become too generic - good fantasy has a certain 'bite', a certain distinct individual flavour.. and it may be that if you choose to work with fantasy, you could give it a film noir flavour - but if not,do consider in what ways you can raise fantasy out of the general and into the specific. Cross-genre work is perfectly acceptable, if that helps.
