@Jason Antwi-Appah I would keep it simple to start. Assuming you have lights aimed to specific areas like Down Right, Down Center Down Left. For example
Channel 1,2,3. Draw the
stage and a big circle for each one with a label. Then show them how to record ch 1 on sub 1 and label them. Next step select sub1 and with 2 fingers to put it on the
play back 1. Do the same with 2 and 3.
Get 3 students or staff to join this next part as you tell them a story of rock,
scissors and paper. Each character takes a chair on
stage.
Now TELL the story of how Rock would come over . . .as you have the kid slide up sub 1. Record
cue 1. Continue your story, Next Rock meets paper and ask Paper to have a seat Down Center. You now have one of the children to turn the sub 2 on. Record
cue 2 As you continue the story having fun filling in stories of his adventures.
Scissors is finally on
stage and lit.
Using the opportunity to teach how to record a
cue of the whole group and a group of the
cue. You continue regaling this story adding cues, groups and color as paper is embarrassed. As these characters run around the
stage you
play a
chase effect.
So in this short story you have taught the basics: a light,
channel, cues, sub, and effects, including timing and color as your story plays out.
We all know the story, you tell it with fun allowing hands on creativity. As you end ........ASK the final Question.
WHAT IF ROCK LEFT?
Enjoy.
