Post Pitch

The pitch to the rest of the group went well. Got plenty to think about though, with some questions to think about:

CAN IT BE DONE?: Yes - there's only two characters, and neither need to be complicated. Their setting isn't complex, so there is little issue regarding backgrounds.

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE?: 28 weeks is plenty of time to complete the piece.

HOW MANY PEOPLE WILL IT REQUIRE?:

** CHARACTER ANIMATORS - approx. 1/2 people per character

** MUSCIAN - someone to write the music is essential, as it's the basis of the whole piece

OTHER REQUIREMENTS?:

** one background, quite plain

** colour to be done digitally

I have also reconsidered the idea, to try and better the first. The following is the result of reversing the roles, in other words, putting the guinea pig in the busking position:

A guinea pig is busking in the street, when he's overshadowed by a mean looking moggy. The guinea pig plays, but the cat doesn't react, still looking incredibly mean. The guinea pig makes to leave but the cat stops him. The cat raised a long, pointed object.

But when the object is brought into the light, it reveals... a kazoo. The cat jams with the guinea pig.

Possibility for an ending is that the guinea pig turns round and says "Y'know, for a moment there, I thought you were going to eat me." The cat says "Oh." And eats him anyway.

More ideas will hopefully follow.
