Work Experience - Editing Animated Back Projection for Theatre Production

Tonight I have been editing the backdrop animation for the show Hedgehog's House which is going up at the Tabernacle, Notting Hill this weekend.

I work for Honey Tongued Theatre Productions occasionally as photographer, cameraman and sometimes Assistant Director.

Tonight I am editing an animation that has been created especially for the show to get the timings right so that the 2'46" animation fits with the show with a running time of 45 minutes!

I have the timings of the action from the rehearsals of the show and I am editing, looping and rearranging the animation to fit the running order.

The brief is really clear so it hasn't been as daunting a job as it seemed it might be from the initial meeting.  It makes so much difference when you receive clear instructions with accurate timings.  Previous jobs that I've worked on have had briefs that were too vague and led to misunderstandings later.
