Brainstorm 1

Today we found out our groups for the next unit which is to create a devised piece that is between 20-30 minutes long around the song “chasing pavements” by Adele. My group for this task is me, Toby, Carl, Meg, Dom, Freya and Kia. This lesson as a group we brainstormed ideas we had around the song.

These ideas are:

·         A car crash

·         The chase

·         Hunger Games

·         Would you rather

·         Horror house

·         Dreams

·         Drug abuse

·         Game show

·         Flash Backs and Forwards of an event

·         Depression

·         Giving up

·         Illness

·         Running away

·         Dinner

·         7 Deadly Sins

·         Death of loved ones

We debated for a while about the realism and what we could do with the ideas, in the end we focused on the ideas of Game show, Would you rather, Horror House, Flash backs and Seven deadly sins. We created a bigger expansion of what we wanted to do from these ideas.

We thought about the seven deadly sins and decided we wanted to change them around to create better characters for our piece; we kept Pride as we liked it to show off our host and we also kept Sloth but reworded as lazy. We then created the rest to suit the environment and plot of the story we will create.
