Mondrian!




Today I went and helped a friend with measurements and fittings for the film she is designing for SDP. The film is inspired by the abstract paintings of Piet Mondrian. Actors wearing black walk in lines representing the lines of the portraits while 3 primary coloured people dance in a manner representing their colour in the middle. For instance Red is representing anger and fire and so has to dance like this. It is all very abstract but really interesting to watch.

I have rarely been on a film set/rehearsal before. It is a very different environment to the theatre which I am used to. I found the action a bit staccato because the cameras have to be moved to focus on different areas.
