Our actress for red couldn’t make recording so it was just Eddie again. We decided to use this session as more rehearsal time and to record his lines just encase we had to record red and Eddie separately. We ran through the whole script but left out Edwards Monologue as we felt we had the takes we wanted for that part of the script. We hope that we can get Red and Edward in the same room as i think then we can get them to bounce off each others and get good chemistry between the characters.
Recordings
First Recording 30/01/2018
For our first recording we finally had some replies for Red but they were unable to attend today recording, we also potential found a wolves person as beth knew a girl with the right voice. We decided as a group that the wolves ‘guy’ could be played be either a girl or guy as long as they could sound rough. We just focused on Edwards monologue in recording. There was some confusion at the start with meeting points, as i thought he would meet us in the room but Eddie waited downstairs for me because of this it meant we didn’t start recording till 9:20. We only needed to do a couple of takes for the monologue as we where happy with eddies performance, while we had the energy we decided to do the last bit of scene 5. It didn’t take us long and we left earlier then the studio was booked for as we are hoping to do the rest of the scenes with Edward and red in the same room. Before Eddie left i checked with him when his availability are as he told me he would no longer be away from the 4-9th of February. He said he could do early next week which is good because it may mean if we get someone we could use tomorrow as rehearsals for the two actors to get to know each other and work on the relationship as characters together.
First Rehearsal 29/01/2018
We originally planned that we would have both our actors this day so they could meet and build on the characters relationship in our drama, however our actress for Red dropped out on Sunday night. We decided to still have the rehearsal with just Eddie. We used this as a one-to-one session so he and the director (Beth) could talk about the character and ask any question he had. We also talked about his availability and found out he isn’t available from the 4th-9th of Feb. This mean we are working on a tighter time frame then originally thought. We think we may have to record Edward and Red separately due to scheduling with our actors, we discussed times he is free this week and worked around his schedule and ours to record his parts. While doing so Beth has been asking drama students that she knows if they are available to do so encase none of the casting calls i sent out i replied to. I booked the studio for 2 recording session this week from 6-9 both days. After this Beth and Eddie went over the script while me and Oli did last minute tech checks then they both went into the studio for us to record the practice, because our actor wasn’t here Beth read for Red we went over the whole drama of how we wanted it too sound and recorded some of the practice takes to listen back too.
