The Yr. 7 class did a unit about Bunraku puppets. The students had to design a puppet based in Japanese Folklore. To help them come up with a design they first had to create a story for their character that would help define their personality. Their design had to represent the character's personality and visually reflect the story they created for them.
They brought their own materials and supplies to create the design.

Production designs
Senior production of Rydell
For a production of Rydell at Renaissance College, I helped to design the stage, source costumes and make props. During performances I was also in charge of hair and make-up. As there was a large cast, I had a team of students who helped me with this. Leading up to the opening performance, I taught hair and make-up workshops to help the students with their skills.
Yr.7 - 9 Production of Ratz

For this production I assisted with rehearsals by guiding and directing the students regarding the play, though we did allow the students to really take the lead on directing themselves and making decisions. They adapted the script to suit their geographic and social culture.
