Meeting 1/Tutorial

For our first meeting as a group we discussed the story and what we felt were the important elements, such as what scenes would be vital, the time we were looking at, what rooms could be used, where it would be set and other topics that we needed to look at in our own time so at the next group meeting we would be able to bring our research together and answer the basic questions like where the best country for the sets to be based and year the story would be then we could look at the design of rooms for that period and place. But at this stage we were all happy with the idea of using the bedroom and living room for the set, and we wanted the family to be lower middle class family. One of the ideas we had looked at was just doing the bedroom and the hallway out side because in the story just after Gregor is turned into a bug his sister talks to him from the hallway but after further discussion and a think about the point in the story we would be setting it we decided that the living room would be a more important room to set it in, this is the room where mast of the story is set and it would be interesting to create the extreme difference between Gregor's room which has become dirty and dilapidated against the living room that is being over cleaned out of worry and stress. So I would be looking back at the story and how you can turn the text into a set for a psychological thriller.
