Leonie - Group Meeting

Okay, well we all had a busy week this week, so we finally sat down for a group meeting today. Becky was off ill so she has been filled in to what is happening and what we have decided. There are still areas we need to figure out and find such as: settings, costumes, Props, Sound and Special Effects. As Craig has brilliant ideas on possible locations, we appointed him of that area, Martyn wanted to look at props and find props we might need, Becky as she is the Editor will be doing Special Effects and I will cover Costumes and Sound as I’ve already looked into those areas a bit.

(Group Meeting and Notes)

So, we have been planning for a couple of weeks to go into town and find any possible costumes. Becky and Martyn will not be going because of personal issues and other duties so Craig as the Director and I looking into costumes will be going up tomorrow to look into getting or hiring some.
Finally we have made a rough outline of who will be playing who so we know what costumes sizes we need:
Lord Thayne: Dave Green

Grace: Tara Rudge

Producer: Trina Abbott
Director One: Darrill Lawrence
Director Two: Jamie Clarke
Director Three: Stephen Harrington
Cameraman One: Ian Amos
Makeup Artists: Sara Woollard (more still pending)
Backstage Crew: (Still pending)


For Costumes we will probably need:
Ruffled shirt
Waistcoat
Long Overcoat
Knee-high boots
Tight fitting trousers
Dress
Shawl
Ankle Boots


For Props we will probably need:
Cane (for the male)
Cameras

Sound Microphone

Book

Makeup

Chairs

Vehicles

Also, I have written up a rough first draft of the costume drama part of the script that is the hardest part to script. I feel that it is very effective and sounds like it belongs in that period, so I am happy that has turned out well! A problem I have encountered when writing the script is that the Producer and Director One are arguing whilst the two actors talk about something different. So for that scene, two scripts will have to be made. Other than that, the script and our group are doing great! Cannot wait to get started!
