This week we finished setting the first scene, working through the script. I am not in this scene so I was helping/ directing. It is quite a static scene as they are sat around the table so we had to add in some movement, mainly using Ariel. Ariel is a very aggressive and explosive so should not be sitting still as his character needs to bring tension to the piece. When setting this Dom was not playing the part as Ariel so we will have to keep working on his character to bring out the characteristics needed to bring Ariel to life.
Through the scene Ariel becomes progressively irate, starts pacing while Tapolski talks to Katurian, and ends up physically grabbing Katurian with frustration. Ariel needs to be extremely physical as well as using the dynamics of his voice effectively to emphasize his mood swings and general anger. To go with this Ariel brings out some torture equipment to try and get Katurian to speak. We spoke about the kind of things we would have to go with the electrodes that are already in the script, like a hammer, pliers, a screwdriver etc, so just simple DIY tools that will be easy to get but still look intimidating.
