Monday 16th March 2015 notes



Hw: the video that I watched used multimedia to project and show what the characters feel or what they are thinking about.

Task 3 part 1


TASK 3  - How can we use Multimedia effectively in performances?

 

 

Use the internet to help answer the following questions.


1. What do we mean by the phrase 'multimedia in performance'?


Multimedia Performance provides a comprehensive overview of the development, theory and definitive characteristics of this rapidly developing and popular area of practice. Drawing on case studies from across a wide range of contemporary performance, the book introduces key artists, companies and debates. Klich and Scheer describe new and emergent forms including video performance, digital theatre, interactive dramaturgies and immersive environments, presenting an up-to-date analysis of the evolving relationship between technology and aesthetics in contemporary performance culture.


2. Give some examples of different types of media that could be used in a performance. Give examples of how they could be used and the positive and negative of them.

VIDEO CAMERA
 
To film the performance or part of the performances to make it part of the performance.
It can make very intriguing effects to the performance
It can easily lose footage and fail performances.
 
computers
 
To do research before view a performance
People can have background information and know more about the play and understand it more
Not everyone would get access to information so they would miss out on things
