Verbatim: Use of real words (Recordings of people talking)
Documentary: Combination of Verbatim and imagined history.
Process:
1. Inteviews
^ A lot of stories will be from the past.
^ People at events will give live, current feedback.
2. Transcribe bits from the stories that you like and find interesting.
3. Themes will appear - this will help us as a company come up with a narrative and story which we can work from to create a draft of a script.
4. Order the themes.
5. Cut it down to what you find interesting and something people can relate to and take time to listen too.
6. Find links from the transcribed scripts
7. Work with the puppets and create a piece.
Consent/ Ethics form:
It is important that we ask for permission to use the words from people that we have interviewed. We will have to create a consent form what asked that we can use the words they have used and that they are comfortable with it.
During the process, we should also check back with the people, whose stories and words we are using to make sure that they are happy with what we have done.
* What sort of people are we going to interview?
* Can we get to any events to ask people for their current experiences
* NTU societies
* Social Networks
Q: Why puppets?
* Manipulation is easier
* Physicalization of the puppets is easier
^ Make a physical comment on the issue at hand
* 3 puppeteers
^ Manipulate the puppet's personality
* The audience can invest more into the puppet with their imagination than they can with an actor
