The Raven first week

So we got the studio this week starting 18^th February to start on the production for the raven. We spent most of it putting the studio up and then prepping it stripping it and painting it. It was fun starting from this point and having the opportunity to see how the set comes together. I Zac, Ben and Lauren came in to measure the set and we taped it ready for the next day of putting the studio up. It was a real valuable experience getting to do this and see how a set is put together and I very much enjoyed getting hands on with this process and felt that between me and Steve who is the joiner for the university did a great and quick job of getting it done, giving everybody time to prepare the walls so it could be dressed the next week. It still hard to get a feel for the space and how it will look when it is done and the space I will have to work in and the layout of the set. I think Lauren knows how she wants it to look but it would be nice to see it more on paper or have it explained as it is hard to conceptualise how I can light it or where I can take shots from. Next week will be spent prepping the set for dressing and it is planned to be done by Wednesday so hopefully I will be able to get in and light it as I think it is going to take a lot of testing to get the look I want.
