Dance Production: Design and Technology introduces you to the skills you need to plan; design; and execute the technical aspects of a dance production. While it may not seem that staging a dance production is that different from a play or musical; in reality a dance performance offers up unique intricacies and challenges all its own; from scenery that accommodates choreography; to lighting design that sculpts the body; and costumes that complement movement. This unique book approaches the process of staging a dance production from a balanced perspective; making it an essential resource for dancers and designers alike.Covering a broad range of topics; author Jeromy Hopgood takes the reader through the process of producing dance from start to finish ndash; including pre-production planning (collaboration; production process; personnel; performance spaces); design disciplines (lighting; sound; scenery; costumes; projections); stage management; and more. Bridging the gap between theatrical and dance design; the book includes a quick reference guide for theatrical and dance terminology; useful in giving dancers and designers a common working vocabulary that will ensure productive communication across the different fields.

This book brought back a lot of fond memories -- especially the times that our family ventured to Toledo to visit the Tiedtkes store. The only shortcoming in the book was that it could have really helped if the author had included a map showing the locations of all the places he talked about.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. ... there for 30 years and always heard all the great stories of the neighborhoods and the people it was ...By Thomas A PersonAs a Toledo native that grew up there for 30 years and always heard all the great stories of the neighborhoods and the people it was a marvelous. easy and compelling read on what Toledo was and how it lead the way in so many facets of life and community.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
