In September-October 2024 our biology teacher in our school suggected to create theatrical performance “Nutcracker”. When I read the sscript, I thought it was too short, so I suggested to expand the script and also make some quotes of Nutcracker book, which our teacher had, I suggested this, because I wanted to create big performance and also for our script will sound more theatrical and cool. So our teacher rewrote the script, also I edited it, a bit and we started our work.
In the beginning of the work I can’t imagine, all the work I will do for this, because I started only as listener of the idea of the project. But later, in this project I become: lightdesigner, co-director, event manager, one of the actors and also I recorded and edited our audio recording of voices of people (it was the phonogram, because the lack of wireless microphones). Our budget was extremely low, approximately 1000-3000 hrivnas (20-70$), so we used our school and Church resourses. Also I designed most of the designa: for Instagram posts, YouTube previews, screen backgrounds of performance. And I tried to make our play marketing systematic, posts in same stylistics, signature song
Below you can see our work. Unfortunately our script was deleted, but I made a lot work on this script: I didn’t wrote the story, but I edited, formated it and optimised for sound, light screen staff and also for actors, also you can see stream of the performance, and some social media interactions. The YouTube videos I edited by myself.
