Entry 10

Here are some scene outlines I have done:

The group has also decided to use 2 sources from the stimulus sheets. One qoute: You many say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one, I hope someday you will join us, and the world will live as one. This is because the monsters are trying to make the girl stay in her nightmare.

And a picture:

This picture is chosen because it looks magical and dream like, and everything is revolving around that girl. Like it is her world.

Entry 9

I have been thinking a lot about the fact that the audience may or may not know what is happening and could get completely lost, so I contributed the idea that the 'monsters' should have a scene at the start 'planning' what they are going to do to this little girl so the audience is prepared. They dismissed this idea because they think that the monsters shouldn't be alive till I go asleep, which I now agree with.

We have also decided that although the characters are 'bad' it is going to be a gradual step to becoming these evil characters. This means that going from world to world would become scarier and scarier.

Entry 8

In the week leading up to our performance we have been walking and running through our play and trying to organise everything. Through means of communicating we have set up a private Facebook page for our group so we can communicate and work together. Here are some examples:

We have also have used emails, however i have no proof of these.

For the lights and music, i have been left responsibility with the music because it was my idea for the different sound effects and the type of music.

The group has also been discussing costumes and I decided that i would let them work out their own costumes because they are all the same character while i am not, so I am decided that i would wear long pyjamas because that symbolises that I am asleep.

Entry 7

Drama today consisted of improving our play with Mrs Burleys ideas. We ran through our play and began to alter bits and pieces. I suggested to the group that we would have the play slowly progress from happy to scary. We put this into the play by having a sweet (but secretly evil) grandma at the start telling me to go to the door. We would then have Bronte, the artistic girl blowing bubbles, appear happy but has a harsh and mean voice. I would the move on to Ariana and she would be a completely scary monster. Through all of this Brittanee would be following me creeping me out. During the next few lessons after this we began the detail. I again suggested that we should have the characters on the veranda at the start discussing what they are going to do and who they are, oblivious of the audience, so the audience has a slight idea of what is to come. Someone also decided that some of the characters would start under then bed and some in the curtains. We have also centred all of the mini-plays around the floor space.
