The Joy of Sets


The Joy of Sets - Handbook of Set Design for Community Theatre

THEA award-winning set designer, Jane Coryell, teaches how to think and create as a set-designer ~ read a script from the set designer’s viewpoint, think about a visual metaphor in the set, consider different styles of sets, prepare preliminary sketches, make floor plans, consider sightlines, do final drawings, make stage models to scale, assemble colour swatches for set dressers and costumers, make construction diagrams for set builders, and make cross-section diagrams for lighting designers.

This handbook suggests an easy, inexpensive technique for making model furniture to scale. It recommends useful set designing tools and resources. It also includes many snapshots of Jane’s set designs on stage and in models.

Visit Smashwords or
Amazon UK to buy, or write to Jane at jane.coryell@sympatico.ca for more information about this handbook.
