production meeting


Production meetings are ways of making sure information gets to the people who need to know, and that the necessary work on a play actually gets done. A production meeting is intended to get things done. It should involve a complete report and honest assessment of where every technical area of the production is at. It is a forum to make sure that everyone is on the right track, a way for under-performing crew members to be identified and assisted or replaced. Every department should issue a progress report (even if the same person is responsible for multiple areas), and their progress should be matched against the production schedule to make sure they are on track. At this time, the director should approve (or schedule a time to approve) props, costumes or other technical work being done, and any discrepancies between the director/designer/technician interpretations of the design worked out. Once the reports are given any shortcomings should be openly and frankly discussed, and a plan to address them should be decided upon. Time is the most important resource when working on a play, so it’s important to make sure that problems get dealt with now – before you get to tech week, when it’s too late to fix them right.

In my role as fundraiser I was responsible for raising money on behalf of the show . as being on the Fundraising team its my job to bring in the money. Using a range of promotional methods and campaigns, you’ll work hard to raise money either from generous individuals or secured grants. I felt like I found my self;

1.       Developing strategies and setting goals to hit fundraising targets.

2.      Finding people to donate money

3.      Keeping in touch with existing donors and stakeholders
  1. Budgeting incoming and outgoing money (very much like life)
  2. Writing proposals that could attract money, including applications for grants
  3. Preparing and giving presentations (hello PowerPoint)
  4. Liaising with the fundraising team
  5. Overseeing events and campaigns

I felt like I handled my role with efficiency as I emailed Jacob asking him for the posters what showed organisation and independence.

I have throughout my life embarked and thrived on being a part of the theatrical world and in doing so has been an on-going student at the Battersea Arts Centre and Italia Conti. I have previous experience of fundraising in which I have helped raise money for dance shows at my dance company and in 2010 I won a prize for collecting the most amount of people to come to our theatre show during the London riots so I had to use my persuasive skills to prove to the public theirs young people doing good in the area.im confident and sociable so the type of skills I can provide is the ability to listen well to others and respond accordingly to the situation.I have exceptionally good communication skills which I have developed through various theatre projects particularly spoken word sessions. I am approachable and friendly so I’ll be well suited in the aspect of meeting and greeting guests’.im fairly good at maths so I would be prepared to help with the finance   and collecting money from sponsors.

im very organised and I feel everyone deserves a chance to have an input within the team so I would create a suggestion box where we would have a check in and check out meeting and the ideas of my peers would be discussed in the suggestion box would also have a diary to keep all my dates and events that helps keep my organisation skills up to standard.  I’m good at working in a team and Im in a music company so im aware of how to be in a team’s have a range of ideas to bring to the table like pound shows, selling merchandise, cake sales, advertisement jumper.

My overall performance within and out of school has given me the recognition of being awarded the Jack Petchey Award; due to my on-going dedication, able to work independent or within a team context, my willingness to attempt a task willing to try with the risk of failing but with the determination of succeeding, hardworking and indeed my passion and commitment that has ensued my positive wellbeing.
