Most who go to any type of show appreciate the scene if front of them, the music
they might hear, and even the presentation of lighting effects. Often though,
they don’t think about the costume design. In many cases, finding and creating
the perfect costume for each person on the state is a long process that takes
just as much time and work as the rest of the production. People often forget
that, and perhaps that part of the show goes unappreciated.
If you have children in school, you may know a thing or two about costume
design. You may have had to do it on your own, and if you have, you know how
much work can really go into it. You probably had some direction though, or
perhaps were told where to go buy something. Other times though, costume design
is left up to the parent entirely. Though it is fun to be creative with
something like that, it can be hard when you know it has to be just right for a
production your child may be doing at school. Just imagine the confidence the
young actors will have if in the perfect outfit for their role.
Those in community theater often have to do their own costume design, or they
find someone who is willing to do it for little or no money, simply because
that’s about all the money they have. If you are into costume design, and think
it might be something you would like to do in the future for a career, that is
the perfect place to start. You might not get paid much, but your work will
speak for itself and others will see it. There can be no better advertising of
your skills than to have your costume design seen throughout a production.
Costume design is also something some can volunteer to do for their child’s
dance class or their school play. If you have ever had fun with your child’s
Halloween costume, you may already know if this would be something you would be
good at doing. Your school would appreciate any help you could give, as their
budget for such things is almost nothing. This is a great way to for you to give
time and energy to your child’s school, especially when you think you have
nothing else to offer, and you don’t have time to volunteer for other things
your children’s classes might need.
