Today we started the lesson by finishing of our contact improvisation pieces which was about slavery.
Once we had finished that we moved onto working on our voice so we got into our groups and choose one of our other ideas and decided to choose our idea which was based on a mental asylum. As a group we decided we wanted to make it creepy and said to make sure it was completely focused on voice. We wanted to make a sound scape to build the atmosphere with just phrases and sounds. I decided that i was gonna do loud screams to show someone who was mentally insane. We included crying, laughing beeping and shouting. All these different noises with Freya talking over the top like a nurse caused the tension to build and this was proved by how we made people jump by moving about in the dark.
I think this idea was clever and using sound scape can be effective if put in the right place and in the correct scene. It really help to build an atmosphere at an important moment of time and set a scene at the beginning of it. I believe that the idea we decided to use was interesting but it would be hard to create a story line and I don't think that it links to humanity in crisis and I don't believe the scenario is a crisis so we couldn't show much reaction of how humanity acts in a big situation.
