Shadow People Blog 4

Blog Category: Shadow People Blog

This morning we went out into the courtyard and had a walk through to see where we were being placed.  We played Grandmother's Footsteps again, some of us imagined where we would be in the night and other people were pretending to be an audience.  Then we watched more of the shadow footage from through the week.

Stuart and Will from Lumen have been working with us all week and are making all the sound effects and shadow imagery.  It's been really good working with them - when they haven't been working super hard cooped up in AV Studio putting all the stuff together.

All the participants are getting on really well and having a laugh with one another.  I like being a facilitator, I encourage the participants to get involved and support them during the day and do my best to answer any questions.

Tomorrow night we are going to be shadows mimicking the movements of the audience - copying what they do and effectively becoming their shadow so spent the last session doing mirror work.  We have done bits of mirror through the week but today we worked in pairs really copying the other person.

Probably the audience will be surprised that we start whispering 'shadow' and copying them but i think they'll catch on quick to what we're doing.

I won't be blogging tomorrow - i'll be far too busy!  But next week i'll give you the Shadow People the after- blog letting you know how it went.  So 'til next week... sit tight and beware of the shadows!
