IKEA - Devising
|
SO over the holidays we met up several times and kept polishing and adding to our IKEA GP. its looking great, this video is from the end of the holidays where we filmed it, posted to youtube and sent to Ms Daely for notes.
its so much work creating a GP as we all have different ideas and some of us refuse to let their ideas go, while shutting down everyone else's. Anyway so its looking really cool. we have focused on ensemble work, and synchronised and styalised movements throughout the piece. The basic journey of the piece is a new customer (nina) that gets taken through the store and after wanting to buy the first thing she sees, get trapped by the arrows that only go 1 way --> to the check out. Our key repetitive line is "ooo sorry, you have to follow the arrows this way" as we pus nina through ikea trying to sell as many things as we can to her. The main thing we need to focus on is creating different levels of pace and tension as the whole piece is sitting on the same level = BORING! We continue to work on this as we tidy up moments, counting and script. |
