Movement Videos

This piece could inform physical duets between the traders - Scene 4 there's a big movement sequence involving traders moving with dynamic possibly aggressive movement. Although it could be interesting to add some more controlled and "formulaic" movements into the sequence, this could nicely frame the text when the main traders are talking without 100% distracting from the main action. Simple repeatable duets utilise Enron's large ensemble whilst simultaneously making interesting stage pictures.  

Since we are using Frantic assembly as our main practitioner for the movement this video is a good reference for how their techniques can culminate into an effective piece of theatre. Specifically the section where they work with gesture could be stolen to use in our office movement sequence. I think the style of Enron definitely lends itself to using motif and gestural work which mirrors the mundanity of office life whilst also remaining interesting and adding to the world of the play.  

At some point I know I become a Raptor. However we are not looking at being dinosaur creatures in the traditional sense, rather zombie like creatures with grotesque and predatory animalistic type features. This video shows how body isolation and focus can create this type of movement. I could use this as a base to make a fully realised "Raptor" without delving into the realms of stereotype. I could also do an animal study to aid this work. This will allow me to embody rather than just copy.
