Devising- Monday 30th November

In today's lesson we started of by discussing how we were going to put the refugee scene together so we thought about looking at refugees today but before looking at them through time through a series of pictures going thought the holocaust all the way to our scene which we wanted to base on the refugee camp which is on the edge of Calais at the moment. So we decided to look at ideas and how to put them into a scene while others started looking at stuff to include in the presentation at the beginning i started looking at women living in these camps. Once I got this information I printed it off and started to pick out things that I thought was relevant and how we could use this in our piece. This was such as the camps being refereed to as the jungle so I saw our lighting at being a green colour. It also refereed to women showing signs which fought for their rights so I thought this would be a great way to start our scene to introduce our characters. There was also lots of references to fear and how it not being safe for them anywhere. So I thought the best way to get across to the audience what is going in here is in a conversation between people in the camp but we needed to do this in an interesting way.
