Maths is a terrible, terrible thing.

Got the specifications of the theatre we're using as a basis for the project today, and that theatre is Margate Theatre Royal. Because the website is so dedicated to advertising shows and generally making as much money as possible, it does not really feature any actual photographs of the stage. Kind of a major thing there that they've missed out on. So I had to hunt around on Google Images to find a picture of the stage. Well, I assume it's the one. There's no guarantee with Google. We were also given the technical floorplans of the stalls and circle, as well as an elevation view of the stage. Using the measurements as drawn on the paper in some way I don't think I'll ever be able to remember, we were able to work out nearly exact measurements of the stage, which we were then able to divide by 25 to find the 1:25 scale that we needed. That was a long sentence. The theatre itself is pretty standard fare, and fits with the designs I've already produced. Obviously I'll have to modify them slightly and work out the exact measurements that I need everything to be at, but that's easily done. Maths has never really been my strong point (my strong point is apparently blogs. Funny, that.), but the equations used to work out the dimensions of the theatre and the appropriate 1:25 scale weren't that difficult. I just don't remember the process...
