SIMPLE STAGING, TWO
EXERCISE
Place three objects in a scene, in this case a teapot, a teacup and a spoon,
on a table, and draw them in a variety of compositions. Any three objects
and an appropriate setting will work.
Keep it realistic. Don’t put the kettle in space or surrealistically warp the
table or hang the teacup from the teapot’s spout. Stick to the exercise and
challenge yourself to see how creative you can be with strict guidelines.
Play with blocking, vantage point and proximity to create an endless variety
of staging possibilities.
Finally, add a sense of storytelling to the scene. Why are the objects
where they are? How did they get there? What is about to happen? Why
are we looking at this scene from this angle? What feeling do we get from
the scene?
