In this lesson, we recapped our character dances with our double casts, along with a choice of music by 'Cocorosie'. All the songs used that will now be part of the final play were:
-Gallows
-Smokey Taboo
-By your side
-Japan
-Lemonade
We chose 'Gallows' which worked well with the music as it's eerie and slow tune with overlapping voices represented the confusion and concern of 'Ticket', who is panicking about their lost admission. Originally, we independently thought of a with a series of movements so we then combined our movement with our double cast and adapted it to create a phrase. This was effective as we were able to see different perspectives of movement we'd each come up with, and weave it together.
3 ideas around how the movement could be incorporated in the performance
One of Inhibition's line reads "You - are - talking - absolute - fucking - SHIT!". This seems a very powerful and emotional sentence, as it breaks the sentence up and isolates each word to give it more significance. If we incorporated the movement into this, the pauses for each word could involve movement for each pauses to emphasise it, maybe done in unison with the dynamics of anger to reflect on Inhibitions' feelings. This could happen for many of the characters in their strongest emotion at the time.
We also decided on everyone's production roles, which include Marketing, Sound editing, Lighting, Props and Costumes. Me and Livvie are in charge of sound editing, which includes using the songs above in parts of 'WLOD'. I think I'll be useful in this role as I enjoy editing music as I have created soundtracks for past shows in my high school.
