Chasing Pavements Devised Piece 05/01/16

Today was the first day back and the start to the new devised unit we started the lesson of by reading though the assignment brief which told us what exactly we would be doing for this unit and the grades we could get and what we needed to do to achieve these grades.

Then we watched the Chasing Pavements video by Adele which gave us an idea what the song was about and made me think of some ideas we could use for are devised piece. Here is the video that we watched:

We then got told what groups we are going to be in my group is Kat, Lorna, Rob and me. As a group we did a mind map of ideas we thought we could use for are devised piece here are some of the ideas that we wrote down:

• Technology/Trends in the world 
• Boy buried in pavement 
• Poverty/Suffering
• Relationships/Love 
• Abortion/Miscarriage/Still born 
• Alcohol abuse 
• Rejection/Ageism 
• Domestic Violence 
• Chase/Hunt/Race 
• Time running out 
• Time Jumps 
• Refugees/Religion 
• Different paths
• Options/Decisions 
• Run away 

We looked at the ideas that we thought we could work on in todays lessons and we came up with are favourites ideas were alcohol abuse, relationships, abortion and domestic violence we then decided to put these all in one piece I said the idea starting of with a party which I could be the host and then we all came up with the idea of a couple who will have a relationship at the party and have a baby we came up with the idea that the girl would not want to have the baby and have a abortion and then they would be a domestic violence over the couple to keep the baby or have an abortion.
