time for fashion

goodness me, I have be away from blog land for much longer than I ever have, seems my days are filled with meeting and planning then some driving followed by the same.
though this time last week was the full dress rehearsal of the fashion experience. something that had been in the planning for some 6 or more months. for 26 minutes the following night the show for real time pretty much stopped for a moment. a great result a great show and I am really happy to have been part of it. things could have been improved but given the spend we had and the venue has to be said it was up there. so to bigger and better or perhaps the same size and better.
earlier in the week I was lucky enough to send some time at twofour productions. what a great place, especially for he SW (UK). if for nothing else the way the staff seem to be, happy, industrious friendly and seemly open great to see a creative industry company producing work that they are proud of an want to talk about. rather than hie it away in case you steal their ideas as some sector professional have been in years passed. have to say they certainly appeared to me to be a great company to work for, (and no I am not trying to get a job their the meeting was for a different reason).

gel


just a short post, I was really impressed today by being given two swatch books to choose colours for lighting gels at a fashion show I am involved in putting on in early spring.
I am used to fabrics and paper and things you can hold but I haven't had a lot to do with lighting. but as the concept behind sections of the show are based around some of my thinking I have been given the task of organising the colour themes, which is great. I just spent some time on the rosco web site and am now spending time trying to work our colours.
I think the only really go way is to storyboard the show and have a model of the stage, all fun though.

early start

I was determined to post again today, I have a meeting about a fashion show in a short while and am going to the clothes show in birmingham tomorrow. sounds good doesn't it? (except for the 6 am start and the midnight return).
anyway I have been thinking about clothes a bit recently, it used to be pretty much all I thought about a few years ago, how things change!
I am still as interested as ever but for others rather than myself. so this winter 'I will be mostly wearing' shades of grey and black.
