in the September issue of the Florida State Thespian web page.
RULES
- The student must present three (3) character renderings. These may represent
three (3)
different characters and/or may follow a single character through several appropriate
changes.
- Computer aided design is NOT acceptable.
- Each design must be executed in full color AND
displayed on a 10" x 15" white display
board. The display board cannot be mounted on any other surface. All
figures must be 10" tall. The base of the figure should be 3" from the lower
edge of the board. A human figure may be traced to use as a
template upon which a costume creation may then be placed. Tracing of a
costume outline or silhouette is unacceptable.
- The board should be labeled in the following manner:
Upper Left hand corner: Name of the show and author.
Upper Right hand corner: Name of the character, act, and scene.
Lower Right hand corner: Student's name and troupe number.
- The student must attach fabric swatches, measuring a minimum of 2"x2", by
the top edge of the swatch only to the same board on which
the figure is drawn. Mount the swatch so
that it may be lifted up and felt in order to evaluate appropriate fabric
texture, draping ability, weight, grain, etc.
- The student must present a justification of the designs. Note cards may be used.
- Only one student may be involved in the set of designs. NO COLLABORATION.
- All artwork used must be the original work of the entrant.
