Design meeting number two

My thesis is plugging along right on schedule--well ahead of schedule as our director leaves us for the month of December. I left with even more food for thought, but at least I know we are on the same page. This production will be very character driven as opposed to being blanketed over by a pretty period. The challenge now is how to let each character's style shine though the limitations of the time period. Guidelines of the period--not limitations. The backdrop will be 1690's, but slightly more opulent, eaggerated and fantastical. Possible a trellis or piece of archtecture as a fonage and periwigs sculpted into cuckolds horns. Hopefully I can stay lucid in this. I've broken through a creative barriar, possibly because I am ignoring baggage. Nothing like a big project to pretend other things don't exist.

But it is great to be back in the creative process. I dread these meetings at first, but I always seem to leave them incerdibly motivated. Of course it helps to have an incredibly intelligent and well spoken director open to ideas.
