just got back from italy


well just got back and have now compleatly changed my idea
to some thing along the lines of (if we demolish the pros) an unfinished painted wall to look like a chipped plaster wall of venice possibly with etchings mainly in terracotta and medditeranian colours and lots of different Stuck on and not openable (as it is on a wall) windows (various styles and shapes ) possibly have a few hanging loose infront of the wall wich could have lights behind
and then in a simmilar style have the old scaffold tower clad in wood and designed as an abstract yet in a classical style house which can hve steps up the back on the inside and use of the levels in side and as it would only be clad on 3 side you can of course flip it around as it is on wheels. it would also have shutters that would open possibly a mock balcony but certainly one large door and two smaller on either side.
floor would be wooden and furnature fairly elaborate (BUT NO ACTUALLY VALUABLE VASES PLEASE!) and across the roof a tab track wih separatable hesian cloths with a couple swagged this would be able to block of any unwanted stuff and could have elaborate fringes. all big changes (which would only really be movement of furnature ) could be done behind this and all changes or movement of scenry should be done by asms or characters in costume. funature to remain (when not in use at the sides of the stage.
I do know where to get the hesian from with tab fastenings on already.
hope that makes sence will produce some sort of model(by the way when do we needto do that for.)
yours Mark

wall to be in the style of the photo above but a bit more romantic

in terms of water effect you could film the reflction of water and then project that on to the wall and to make scene changes obvious or changes of location you could project the scene number and location on to certainareas of the set.
