In todays Production meeting, we spoke about all the main tasks that each production group needed to undertake. At the very beginning, myself and the rest of the Marketing, Publicity and Fundraising team sat together and discussed what we had done since the last Production meeting.
The day before the production meeting, I had made an email account for the dance company. I told everyone in MPF about it the night before, so they could create social media accounts before the meeting the next day. I created an Instagram account, Eden created a Twitter account and Max created a Facebook page. During our group discussion, we told everybody else in the group the usernames and passwords to these accounts so they could login to them and edit them if they wished. We have decided not told the rest of the class this as we feel that we should be the only people to have access to these accounts. In our class that day, we had taken a couple of video clips of some of our routines for our Instagram account and a group photo of all of us in a Witch pose. While we were in the meeting, I put the group photo up onto Twitter and Eden put one of the videos on Instagram.
After this, we were then told by Julia to discuss
ideas for our logo. Eden had a couple of ideas and so did Nina, but they did not fit with the theme of the show. Also, some of them were not practical. Julia then gave us a couple of ideas to consider and so we tried to incorporate all of them into one. Nina sketched them out and the photo to the right is the finished idea. I really like it as it incorporates lots of things which are in our show. These include: Test Tubes (because one of the main features of the show is creating the potions), the Eyes (because one of the main/most noticeable features of a Witch is their eyes) and Cobwebs (because of the witches). Also it includes the name of our dance company which I personally like as it shows our originality. Also, it makes it look more interesting.
We then got into a big circle with the whole class and discussed each of our ideas. Each group spoke about their ideas and what they needed us to do. I took some notes on what we were asked by other groups to do so I remembered. When it was our turn to speak, Emilia spoke. She told the class about each of our social media accounts and also our idea for the logo. The majority of the class liked it, however some people did have other ideas. Julia then told our group what we needed to do next. She told us that over the holiday, we had to think about what we wanted/needed to include in the programme and whether people were going to pay for our programme. She also told us to arrange a time where we would do headshots of each dancer in the company. We all agreed that it would be before a dance class or on a day where we did not have dance. This was because usually all of us are tired and sweating after dancing, so would not look good in the photos. She also asked us to scan the drawing into a computer and draw over it. Nobody in the Marketing, Publicity and Fundraising group was confident enough to do this, so Issy (from Costume) agreed she would do it for us. The rest of the groups who hadn't spoken then spoke and then the meeting was over.
