Seniors Alexia Choi and Kiki Yang discuss the script and blocking positions ahead of the rehearsal. Prioritizing communication was essential to solving any problems that arose in the production process, according to Andrews. “One of the biggest issues we’ve had this year, since the advanced tech classes are split into 4th and 6th period, is that we don’t usually communicate well with each other,” Andrews said. “However, many of the problems that arise can be solved with good communication with all parts. Audio talks with lighting to sync up cues, lighting talks to costumes to make sure colors match, costumes talks to props, etc.”

About the Contributors

Marianne Chan, Features Editor
Marianne Chan is the Features Editor and a Business Manager for their third and final year on the Portola Pilot. Although she grumbles about wanting to graduate already, she’s ready to cover the goings on of campus and finally write Opinion stories again. If she isn’t catching up on her 4th missing assignment of the week, you can find her compiling 5 hour long Apple Music playlists, chugging black tea, or writing paragraphs upon paragraphs of analysis for anything but AP Lang.

Stephanie Hwang, News Editor
Stephanie Hwang is the News Editor for her third and final year on the Portola Pilot. She hopes to finish out this year by continuing her addiction to signing up for 6 stories every cycle and calling her former senior friends at every opportunity to console herself after they departed this world (school). In her free time, you can catch her playing video games (especially Silksong) and slowly getting through her backlog of books.
