As part of our audition process, students were required to submit an audition form, as well as a video of them either performing either a monologue or giving a statement as to why they want to be involved with the production as part of our collective company. Other than performing, students also had the opportunity of being part of the production/design process for the show in the following fields:
Dungeons & Dragons World and Monster Design
Monster Performance Design
Character Dramaturgy
Story & Flow
Contact Information Collector (Google Forms)
After the decision was made on who gets to join the company, I emailed this Google form out to the company to compile their contact information, as well as their living situation and if they foresee any computer/technology issues in the future.
Company/Crew Contact Sheet
The contact sheet contains the contact information (as well as the living situation) for everyone involved with the company. It also contains the contact info for those on the crew. The contact sheet came in handy if someone was running late to a rehearsal or a meeting, or if I needed to reach out to them for something else.
Master Conflict Sheet
With the help of the production supervisor, Professor Julie Wunsch, this master conflict sheet contains all conflicts that company members have given to us. It was regularly updated throughout the rehearsal process. It was very useful for when we were planning out our rehearsals for the week.
Company Team Assignments/Meeting Times
After our first few company meetings, when the company sent in their "dream cast", the roles and teams were assigned. Those who were cast in the show also worked in one of the specific production teams.
While the full company met every Tuesday to discuss their progress, they also met separately for an hour each week. They also posted their ideas on to an online forum site, in where other people in the company can respond to their ideas and give comments, critiques, etc.
