In the lesson we had the class split in half, and each group had to come up with a small idea of a piece to go with a picture idea we had been given, i thought despite out group taking quite a while to come up with any sort of idea, we actually got a really eerie openeing to something that could potentially be a great piece. Our picture looked like a Boat house, quite a modern one aswell. We had the idea that 3 men were seeking refuge in this boat house, hiding from something that is going on outside, which remained a mystery because we didnt have time to go into detail, also it left an eerie effect because the audience didnt know why they are hiding. In the scene, 2 of the characters have gone out to get supplies but end up being gone for a week, by this point, the man left in the boathouse has gone a bit crazy, all of a sudden people start to turn up, each one asking where the evacuation boat is, and when its going to turn up. This gives the audience the idea that something is actually going on in the outside world, wether that be a corrupt government, nuclear war, apocalypse, world war. Right at the end, the two characters walk back in, and join the group now in the boathouse.
I really liked this idea because i feel we used perfect lighting and sound, We used Red lights, and we had the room dark, which gave off thsat sort of danger feel, also we had the theme music from 28 days later in the background which was also my idea, i felt this piece could have really had a good storyline behind it, but i feel the other classmates watching our piece didnt see the bigger picture of what it could potentially be.
