REFLECTION

A week out from the official preformance date and things have been getting pretty tense, with at least 1 or 2 people being away every lesson we have struggled to rehearse and settle on major decisions that is creating major delays for the group. 


We have a general idea of where we are going and what we are doing but we really do need to start rehearsing and moving the process along if we want to end up with a clean polished preformance. 


Next week the soundtrack is going to be made which should help the rehearsals to be more efficient.

17.6.12

17.6.12 For the group "dream" world production we have decided on a murder mystery called 'The crime scene' . We decided this on the first lesson in which we brainstormed many ideas, an idea that I created eventually evolved into our story now started with a concept of a 'sims' game that came to life. A part that is going to be filmed very soon for use on the projector  is where I am a reporter setting the back story for the very start of the play. Next week we will edit the film and do more work on the script.
