Here is a bit of an experimentation that I did while the Hautlieu School production was going on. I was asked to go down to the drama department and make images throughout the day where cast and crew were performing for their first proper audience of a load of primary school children. I decided to make images from behind the scenes to get more of an inside view of what goes on backstage before and throughout a proper show. I wanted to capture the expressions and emotions of the actors and those watching. I found this to be a great and interesting new experience to be able to go into a more professional environment and for the cast to be comfortable and welcoming to being photographed. The behind the scenes action began at around 10AM and went on until about 2PM. In that time I made over 700 images and have gone through and edited them all and narrowed it down to my favourites in this post. Most of the images that I made throughout the day are from behind the scenes and give a bit more detail into the goings on in a Hautlieu School production. The images are documentary style and are simply behind the scenes of the school production giving the spectator more of an insight into what goes on when the actors aren’t on stage and turned on as well as some images from their performance in front of their first proper audience.
