When we arrived today, we were set on creating the first
scene with all of us in it. In the end we decided a brilliant idea would be to
create a soundscape in the church. This would be extremely effective due to the
sound echoing around the church. We then talked a little more and said that it
would be a good idea to start to converge into the middle of the church to
finish off the soundscape – to represent all of us starting to know each other
better and work together. We then came up with the idea to build a barricade of
sorts to show that the rioters are trying to get into the church, but we were
unsure of how to show this. After a quick discussion, we liked the idea of
having Millie sing a peaceful song, while we rush around collecting things for
the barricade – showing the difference in personalities between us. When she
finishes, ‘Angry Dance’ from Billy Elliot would start to play and we would
frantically start to throw things to each other to build the barricade. There
is a pause in the music and Millie would join in. We started to choreograph
creating the barricade by using chairs in the classroom – this was good as we
could start practicing putting it all together and try out different ideas for
a stylistic way of creating the barricade. Next lesson we will finish
choreographing this and hopefully move onto finishing the performance. This
lesson was extremely useful as we finished forming the idea for a scene with
all of us in and started to put it together.
