Multi Media



TYPE OF MEDIA
EXAMPLE OF USE IN PERFORMANCE
POSITIVES OF USING IT…
NEGATIVES OF USING IT…

VIDEO CAMERA

Opening film to give an insight on what the play is about


Helps the audience to understand the play they're about to watch and sets the mood

Figuring out camera angles ad shots to make it look professional

PROJECTOR

The audience have more then one thing to look at and have freewill of how they want their experience to be

Multiple choices on watching the play

May be distracting to some audience members

PHONES


a scene where it is necessary to use a phone

Useful prop

AUDIO RECORDINGS


Conscience

Brings more life to the play

PROJECTED TEXT
 

 

If a character was walking and thinking the text of what they're thinking could be scattered on the walls around

Gives an insight to the characters thoughts helps audience understand the character

May be hard to read

LAPTOP OR COMPUTOR


Controls all multi media devices

Easier then using multiple devices

Have to know how to work everything

SPEAKER


Music

Brings mood and tempo to the paly

Multi Media is content which is displayed in multiple forms, intertwined with media devices such as computers.
I went to watch Antigone in Stratford royal theatre and they used Multi Media in several aspects, they had sound effects and quiet music to set moods in different scenes. They also used projected images and speech to show the conscience of Creon when he realizes what mistakes he's made. They used scenery from other places such as by a river and projected that behind the characters on stage to help the audience know where they are, which I think is called live feed.
