Education

Today we on the scene that will come after the soundscape we have created. This ends by Dan (who is the teacher) making a very loud bang, taking us back into Victorian times. He starts by telling us to get our books out, then walks around the classroom in silence making comments to each student such as 'sit up straight'. We then decided we wanted some kind of repeated movement to show the control that the teachers had over the students and emphasize that everyone did the same. I had the idea that instead of having music we could just have the simple sound of a metronome so that it wasn't silent and we would all keep in time, it also represents the idea of time passing. Punishment is a big difference between school now and then, with the use of the cane and dunce hat Victorian times were much harsher. To add this to the scene I thought that we could have one of the students knock something off of their desk, followed by them being taken up to the front and hit with the cane. After trying different ways to make it look realistic we decided on using a sound effect and having the boy and teacher angled so you don't see the contact of the cane on him.
