A perfect lawn
Tue, 10 Nov 2009, 04:47 pmHi guys,
seeking the experts advice once again. How can one create a lawn effect on stage, without spending squillions on artificial turf? Note: Said garden scene is placed directly after the interval so there's set up time available (20 minutes), however on the other side of the scene, there's only a few minutes to clear props etc, including: garden bench, fake plants etc... the stage is jarrah stained floorboards. Can it be done? Lighting? Second question. I like the idea of using free standing lattice as screens, does anyone know where this can be hireed . purchased cheaply, or would it be better to paint a mobile flat?
cheers

A difficult but doable proposition.

It's doable. The Indians in Delhi do crap like that all the time.
You'll like a poor little hobo artist, but who gives a flying proverbial?
I once loaded up three 12 foot Tasmanian Oak rafters onto my MTB and cycled through two suburbs of the North Shore of Sydney. Mind you, I did it in the middle of the night because I didn't want people to be staring at me. Made it to the studio safe and sound though.
These days I got a car, so if you can't do it or feel that you don't want to look like a complete loser, ask your mate for a hand. A mate with a car.
Cheers,

P.S. Hope you enjoyed my "dopehead" tangent?
Greg "noway" now, or "nonrag" before he made a total fool out of himself and left the site - really enjoyed falling into that one. No surprise, though. Guy's an embarassing dopehead with little going for him nowadays.
