Purchase options and add-ons

This comprehensive and practical survey examines the technical and design aspects of play production, including scene design and construction, lighting, sound, costume, and makeup. Design is presented as both an art closely integrated with the director’s, actor’s, and playwright’s vision, and a craft that provides practical solutions for the physical manipulation of stage space. Health and safety precautions for the backstage crew appear throughout in boxes labeled “Safety Tips,” and “Design Inspiration” boxes show how professional designers create the desired look.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good tech theatre book
Reviewed in the United States on 12 February 2013
Verified Purchase
This book is great if are looking to get into this career field. The book covers all aspects of tech theatre from painting,drawing,drafting,lighting,construction and more. I would say though that this edition is pretty much the same as the older editions, so if you need this book if your a student taking a tech class, I would say get it just to be safe. But if you want to learn something new and you're not a student, you can rely on an older edition.
