Assessor feedback

Matt, for task 1 part 1 you discuss some employment
opportunities and functions in the Performing Arts. You refer to some jobs and explain their
roles well. You also explain how some of the jobs are linked to others.
The
production manager is linked with the following job roles in the theatre, Set
Design, Props, Costume Design, Performance Departments, Stage Crew, Lighting
and Sound, Extra casual staff, Directors and all the production heads of
departments.
The Production Manager has a schedule which allows sufficient time for 'making' departments such as wardrobe, paintshops, workshops and props. They have arrangements to make in the performance departments with set designers and the lighting & sound on the necessary preparations for providing people and equipment for the shows. The Production Manager may have to employ extra casual staff if it's s large production such as a pantomime or a musical. The Production Manager has a link with The Finance and Administration Department as the Production manager has to stay on top of the budget, not allowing people e.g the set designer, to pay out money left right and centre for things they need. They need to make sure the budget is being maintained.
For task 1
part 2 you create a database for a theatre company
New Pace Theatre

BTEC MUSICAL THEATRE
PERFORMING ARTS BUSINESS
TASK 1 WEEKS 1-4.
Your first task has two
parts and is handed in on 10.10.13 for your first interim grade.
PART 1 weeks 1 and 2 (P1,M1,D1)
The performing arts play an important part in most
people’s lives…..
On your table BRAINSTORM the many ways
the performing arts figure in people’s lives. Report your findings to the
class.
How does a large company such as
the National Theatre operate?
How MANY people in what types of
job are behind the curtain going up on opening night?
Extra question - How could an
employee PROGRESS from one job to another?
TASK 1 first part (P1,M1,D1):
Research and collate information about a range
of jobs in the arts from a range of named sources such as papers like “The
Stage” and a range of websites such as the National Theatre one shown above.
For a pass - you’ll just deal with a few jobs investigated from only
one website or journal, with short descriptions of each one in your own words.
For a merit – you’ll deal with a lot of jobs, giving clear descriptions
and showing understanding of what each of them involves, the demands and
responsibilities of each one.
For a distinction – you’ll cover a really wide range of jobs with clear descriptions
etc as for a merit, and you’ll also be able to comment on the way many of the
jobs are linked. You would also be able to suggest how someone could
progress from one job to another ….eg a STAGE MANAGER would have had
experience as an ASM….
EVIDENCE
can include your personal findings clearly labelled “Performing Arts Business
task 1,Part 1” on your blog with sources and bibliography. You can also
rehearse and present verbal solo or group illustrated presentations which can
be recorded.
These
websites might be helpful….
and some actual job
descriptions to start you off!
Job descriptions and case
studies
TASK 1 second part (P3,M3,D3)
Create

BECTU and maybe the Musicians Union.
Include
details of hire services such as lighting, sound, props and
scenic equipment
To
achieve a pass – P3 you’ll supply a small list of services
giving contact details and limited descriptions of the type of services it
provides.
To
achieve a merit – M3 you would provide a complete list of
services giving clear explanations as to WHY they appear on the database for
your company.
To
achieve a distinction – D3 you would do all of the above but also
CRITICALLY COMMENT on how each service can interrelate – e.g. your actors
would require the services of Equity.
