Year 10 Textiles Design and Rendering Incursion

This Term the Year 10 Textiles class is focusing on Costume Design.

To bring their projects into the real world the students are working with local theatre company, Rehearsal Room and their upcoming production of Singing in the Rain. Angela Cascarino is a NIDA trained designer who ran an incursion tailor made for our students. They looked at how to develop a design driven garment, industry professional rendering skills and how to incorporate inspiration into design.

In Term 2 students will have the opportunity to go backstage at the local Campbelltown Theatre and immerse themselves in all areas of a production. This includes lighting, staging, makeup, wigs and front of house. As they watch the final dress rehearsal they will be able to learn about the booming industry. Select students will have their works displayed in the auditorium of the theatre showcasing their talents and commitment to the course.
