Reflection #7: Sleepy Hollow Play: Helper

I helped Mrs. Harvey with the School Play “Sleepy Hollow” by being the sound with Stephanie Hay Chu, even though she dropped out later on and helping with the Set design. For set design it was fun because we got to create things like a moon, a chandeliers, the backgrounds and other things, so I didn’t complain much because I found out that it is something that I enjoy doing, and by the time that it was all ready it look good! At the same time, like I said before, I also helped Mrs. Harvey with the sound and at first it was annoying having to stay after school for two hours every Tuesday and Thursday but then I got used to it. Once the day of the play came the nerves came because even though I wasn't acting I still had to click play at the right time so that it went smoothly with play. A thing that made it worse was that only the day of the play did we practice with the actual sound speakers, the rest of the days it was with a laptop so that was kind of nerve-wracking, not only that but the CD was scratched so it would pause at random times and I could only try my best to click play again once it stopped. During the actual play today the music only stopped once I think that was ‘hearable’ which was horrible but for the rest of the play it went ok. It was a good experience, but I don’t know if I would do sound I might just do Set Design or something else.  But it was a nice experience to have.
