Soundscape class room

Today we started to work on ideas for our education ideas and decided we wanted to start our show in a modern class room then transition too a victorian school. We thought about creating a physical theatre piece but decided we didnt want to start our piece with a physical theatre piece and we also said the same about a scene at the start. We talked and like the idea of a soundscape in class room so we talked about what sounds and phrases we hear during a class room:


Chewing (Gum)
Nail filing
Scratching
Ring tone
Heavy breathing
Tapping


These are the 6 sounds we agreeded that we would hear in a class so decided for our piece that we wanted to record these sounds and have them played in the background of our piece. For the transition between times we wanted to use repeative dialogue that would build until the person who was playing the teacher changed to Victorian teacher. We agreed that Dan M would be our teacher as we all believed he would portray a very stricked teacher for the transition. This is the repetitive dialogue we came up with:


Dan M: Has everyone got their scripts todays
Ashley: Yes I do sir
Meg: Nah sir, Ashley left his at home with his balls
Kyle: Leave Ashley alone
Carl: Oi bender, crawl out his arse
Toby: Shut up Meg you skank


This dialogue would build while the recording was in being played in the background until Dan M slammed down on the desk with his ruler which would show our transition of times as the students who were just misbehaving would become well mannered students.
