COSTUMES

COSTUMES ARE DRIVING ME CRAZY
i am working with kenzo the costumes and it is very difficult because we lost 2 rehearsls doing kenzos homework and we could do the things we had to do. Today we finished designing the costumes, then i had problems with the kimonos of the girls because mauricio told me that they had to have the openning in the front and i hadnt done it right, so i had to do it all again. Then i struggled because i invented some kimonos for the cookers and because i never did my research in costumes last year as i should have done it i had no idea of what the conventions were, i had to be constntley asking kenzo or mauricio or pineda. That created a huge dependace and i could do all the things i was planning on doing.

today we were going to go to gamara, but we couldnt go. i am planing in going on monday in the morning because we have to call cajas next tuesday and this tuesday we have to have the different cloth to discuss and i am not going to be here in holy week...
the scenery of the play is concerning me a lot because i havent yet hanged the cycloram nor draw the back grounds... then coppellotti isnt doing the things i ask him to do like finding out where are the platforms for the musicians or the measures or how many musicians are there going to be.... !!!

Maybe not colouring the costumes and just going to gamarra and look for the colors i need without having a settled exact color for each character could make my costume work lighter?
Will the thickness of the cloth influence on the effect the costumes will cause in the audience??

valentina corrected my research and helped me a lot, she told me that what my research was lacking wasnt information, but order so she helped ,me organize myself and let me see it much more clear.

  1. I think one of the things that stands out the most in this entry is the need to do research on time, and to take your time to do the research. Otherwise, you can start saying goodbye to the big fat seven.

    I'm glad to see that now you can also see the importance of complying with production tasks on time.
