Set Designers Meeting

Today we had our set designers coming in to discuss with us all the props, sets and how we want the scene to set out. We showed them our set designs and prop list in which we received quite a positive overall feedback from them.

Our main issue was distinguishing the difference between the 1920s theme and the modern theme and how it will look different on the screen, how we will establish the time-travelling idea to the audience. Other main issues involve the instruments of the jazz band which some of them we do not know where to get and who to play them.

Here are the lists written down by one of the two set designers that came in:

From the meeting, we decided to use a futuristic robotic dance instead of a club element as the peak of the song doesn't change that much in comparison to the start of the song. We also found a double bass player name Mike Elvin, who also owns a futuristic-looking double bass which fits in perfectly with our music video idea. Also, we decided to look into William Robinson's inventions which Luke kindly suggested could work really well with the mad scientist. This is because it would look much better on screen if we have a lot of wires and whacky scientific equipments rather than having just one old computer sitting in a room.
