Invitation to blog on TA18 Drafting for the Theater

Welcome Class! 

From your Professor Alan Tollefson, a.k.a. Al. 

  I've invited you to contribute to the class blog in order to enrich the discussion about our topic with your videos, drawings, photos and writing. You can post links and share readings because Drafting is a subject that is surprisingly deep when we consider its potential for communicating the imagination of the designer through a set of visual conventions, symbols, and points of view. For instance,  drafting can describe process as well as space because  the order of these parts is inherent in the drawing of the stage design. From the elements of theater architecture to the  soft goods to flats, doors, or windows each is drawn in relation to each other in a complete set of design drawings. Drafting relates to architecture, mapping, perspective, production, and of course theater. The list could go on. 

Thanks! Al
