Studio Production - Second Rehearsal

For the second rehearsal, we were able to rehearse the show with a "sort of" set in place, seeing as we wouldn't have the real thing until the day before the final show. The set was based around what the script required as well as the dimensions used to create the final set. Various chairs and tables were used to roughly replicate what we will have on the final days.

The aim for this rehearsal was to run through the entire show so that everyone could have a greater understanding of what their roles will entail and how the show will work round for round and as an entire show. We had more time this time round to complete the show and again we were able to bring back the third years to fill in as the contestants and host.

Clip mics were used to communicate between the host on the studio floor and Josh Jones in the gallery, acting as a form of talkback. This allowed Josh to experience his role in more depth, especially seeing as we'd be running through the whole show.

It wasn't particularly important at this early stage to hit the 30 minute mark that the show requires to be at, however timings were recorded to ensure that we know what to include and remove in future rehearsals.

A lot could be taken away from this second rehearsal as we got the opportunity to not only see how the show will work based off our current scripting and round ideas, but also how it might look with the set in place.
