The 'Circle' scene would be the best example to show the group progress this week as we all worked together positively and enthusiastically. As I mentioned before somebody came up with the idea to form a circle around Christina (me) and somebody else came up with the idea of spinning after every person has said their piece. The reason we did this was to make it look more interesting and to show that inside Christina's head all her thoughts are literally twirling around and confusing her. We came up with this idea by linking it to the idea of Christina being ill; mental health. She hears voices in her head but all the voices are actually her; showing that the only thing stopping her from doing something that she wants or becoming who she wants to be is herself.
We showed this scene to the other group and their feedback was all positive. They loved how we added in the spinning transition. They said it made it look more effective and interesting. We asked them how it made them feel and they all agreed that it gave them chills when they heard some of the things that the characters said. For example, "You are a waste of space and a waste of time." It brought out strong emotions that they didn't expect to feel. It felt good hearing this as it showed us that we were going on the right track as we didn't know how to get the emotions of Christina across to the audience. But this scene proved to be effective as we achieved the response we wanted.
