For each of the two moments: Scene 1 (pages 5-7): This act reveals the critical conversation between Medea and Jason as the latter declares his intention to marry the princess of King Creon, causing her to feel betrayed and abandoned. The scene is filled with tension and emotion, illustrating the unraveling of a once-loving relationship. Quality of light and intended mood: In this image, the light quality should be dim and cast shades reflecting the character’s inner turbidity and darkness of the emotions. The mood must be built up of fear and undercharged emotion, with dancing flame adding to the term of unstable and potential tragedy.
Act 3, Scene 2 (pages 21-23): Medea’s decision-making process of pursuing revenge, which involves sending her magic potions to Jason’s new wife as a gift, is witnessed, which eventually leads to the incidence of both the princess and King Creon’s death. Besides being a moment of turn in the story, it displays Medea’s deeply calculated vengeance but simultaneously demonstrates her cunning and determination. In this scene, the darkness of light should be apart from the illusion and horror, symbolizing Medea’s falling into deeper darkness by submitting herself to the role of an angry and vengeful force. The atmosphere should be uneasy and eerie, full of threatening, menacing, and inescapable impressions to portray the effectiveness of Medea’s scheme. The shadows dancing around Medea represent her anxiety as she prepares to show her wrath.
Cite the act/scene and its corresponding page numbers
Write 75-100 words for both moments about quality of sound and the intended mood you wish the audience to experience
Sound: Song or Sound Selections
First, curate a pre-show playlist–what music or soundscape should the audience listen to while waiting for the show to begin? Your example playlist should be no more than 2-3 songs or soundscapes.
For each scene of your two selected passages, you will select three examples of possible sound for use in the production. You should sample from a variety of sources, to include:
Select an underscore for the scene–some music or soundscape that will play under the spoken dialogue
Select two special effects–highlight a line, moment, beat or anything that speaks to you with a compelling effect (make sure you note when the sound cue would be called)
One SFX should be ambient (like birds, city noise, etc)
One SFX should be an event (alarm, click, door shutting, etc).
For at least one selection, you will record your own sound.
Reminder that sound is sound–songs, nature sounds, electronic beeps, white noise machines, keyboard clacks, ocean waves, cats purring–if it works, it works.
Upload your selections for easy sharing, like a YouTube channel or a Spotify Playlist. Do not share music files directly with me as that gets super annoying.
After you have found and wither watch a live show or recorded, write a two paged review of the production and evaluating its success and interpreting its message. This of yourself as a professional reviewer of the production. Pay attention to the following five perspectives listed and use them, if pertinent. Use them to explain your impressions.
Social Significance – Engaging discussion by revealed complexity of social or political issues
Human Significance – Transcending the social to present universal issues
Artistic Quality – Synthesizing the ideas and the aesthetic vision
Relationship to the Theatre Itself – Conversing with theatre history and convention
Entertainment Value – Holding the attention of the audience
The project is done with 9×12 drawing paper and graphite pencils.
First, follow this tutorial from my colleague, Lauren, about how to draw the human figure. Upload your sketches from this tutorial for accountability.
Then, using the image below as your reference, create as accurate of a drawing as possible on your 9×12 paper. Things that I will be looking for:
Proportion of the figure being as close as you can manage to the original
The model’s head and feet are on the page–start over if you need to!
Using your soft (B) and hard (H) pencils to good effect. Remember that it’s better to start with a hard pencil to map our your drawing, then go right over with a soft pencil for depth

I want you to watch Hamlet on Digital Theatre+ This is a modern setting adaption in an unnamed African nation with the Shakespearean language. It is about 3 hours long. This production premiered in the Royal Shakespeare Theatre, Stratford-upon-Avon in 2016. The production then had a 2018 UK tour and it was performed in Washington DC.

You will also need to read Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead. This is an an absurdest, existentialist tragicomedy by Tom Stoppard. It can be a bit wordy, but fun to read. You should have purchased this text. Let me know if you need help with the text.
After studying Chapters 7 & 8 please: discuss and contrast the elements of traditional theatre(mostly western) and modern theatre (absurdist) as they relate to these two pieces (at least 2 to 3 pages). Here are some questions that could help you discuss the difference in the shows.
How is the styles of Hamlet different from R & G Are Dead? What similarities do they have?
Which would you personally find more effective as a theatrical experience? Why do you think that is?
Do you prefer one style (traditional or modern) over the other? And why?
You can also go back and look at Chapter 2 as it discusses genre’s of theatre. Does this play into the style of show that you watched and read?
*Be careful about the meanings of Traditional and Modern. The video of Hamlet is a modern adaptation of a “traditional” play. Shakespeare’s Hamlet is not a modern play, but the director set the show in modern times. R & G Are Dead is a “modern” play due to is absurdist language.
Hello,
For this assignment, I need a poster to be done. I have linked the “Diet Presentation” which includes all the information needed to do the poster. I also linked 3 examples of posters that
our instructor gave us. I personally like “Poster 2” because it’s colorful but I won’t be picky on
the presentation of the poster.
Thank you
I have selected 4 images one is for 1 point perspective, 2 for 2 point perspective, and one for 3 point perspective
YOU have to draw the lines on the photo of the described lines below and then sketch thumbnail drawings of the images and then label those points and draw the lines also in the thumbnail drawings. I have selected the photos and also will share one example for your reference. MAKE THE THUMNAIL DRAWINGS GOOD AND LABEL THEM.
Draw directly on the photo (printed or digital) and label for each example:
Horizon line
Eye line (if different from the horizon)
Estimated vanishing point(s)
Orthogonal
vanishing point
Redraw your image as thumbnail drawings in your sketchbook–around two drawings on a page
