(Q1) Set Design - Vision Boards / Grade 7

Students have been studying Set Design during quarter one in Theater class. Every design begins with a concept, and often this is inspired by an object or image. This imagery provides the foundation for the design. 

In their journals, students designed a concept surrounding a scene from their favorite story or book. Here were the steps:

• Step 1: Write out your concept in paragraph form using descriptive words and imagery.

• Step 2: Carefully draw a picture/stage map of what this might look like. 

• Step 3: Research and create a Vision Board to guide your design. A vision board (or inspiration board) is a physical or digital collage of ideas that’s commonly used in fields like interior design, fashion, and graphic design. It can include photography, designs or illustrations, color palettes, textures, descriptive words and anything else that helps you define the direction of your project.
