Last lesson we got onto blocking Piggy's death. I was curious as to how Steph was planning on showing it as it is quite difficult in the performance space we have.
Steph had spoken to me beforehand about using video projection for Piggy's death. I didn't think that this would be very effective as I feel it would take away from the emotional aspect of the scene.
In blocking we had the two different tribe's downstage fighting while I am being led by James (Roger) to the rostra at upstage left. At the climax of the scene between me and James the others onstage freeze. As I am about to be pushed the others at downstage center will collapse before a black out in which I disappear.
I think that this was quite an interesting idea but am unsure of how effective it will be for an audience and if it will just look like that is all we could do in the space we are given.
This scene isn't too bad at the moment but I look forward to the actual rehearsals to build up the tension needed for the climax.
