McClelland year book? We are already talking about designing it :/ another project to add to the list

Is physics really needed in later life. I toke this subject because my old teacher mad it fun, but this class is getting really old. I guess I’ve only got a week left :)

They need a low fog effect, so I did a ring round and got some different ideas. Josh said get some smoke marchines and pipe them into a box. I was thinking of dry ice, but it’s going to cost 50 bucks a show, too much for a smaller theatre comp. And I have already gone over budget heaps.

Lighting lab have Foggers that I put a nice big bag of ice in each show. I need to ring lab for a quote. List price is 84 a week per week. I need it for 3 weeks. I then need to buy a bag of ice each show, probs 4 to 6 bucks.

I’m worried the effect will not be as good as dry ice and look try hard. For the price I hope it looks alright
