24th November 2015

In today's lesson we started thinking about how we're going to show the Suffragette that ran in front of the horse in this scene. Firstly we watched War Horse online to see how they created a horse. Once doing this we decided to have 2 horses as it seems more realistic as Emily Davison was hit by the kings horse as well as others competing and there was a problem of having too many legs to create just one. Once we'd created the start of this we then add some physical theatre by using lifts on Ellie who plays Emily. We first done this quite well but what we were doing was quite dangerous so the group and I went over it a few times so that we had trust in each other.
My ideas that I contributed this lesson was that we should recreate the audio of the race that Emily Davison died during and play that over the top of this scene. This idea wasn't used because the audio back then wasn't clear enough for us to hear, as we wasn't going to use this I came up with another idea to get sound effects of a horse race and then screams to play over the top of our scene so it seems more realistic.
To make today's lesson better we could've added music over the top of the physical piece instead of the sound effects. Next lesson I plan on finishing off this scene and getting more research done for other scenes.
