Multimedia - 30.3.15
Choices we made for my group's scene:
My group (Jake, Robyn, Roseby and I) were set pages 11-14 which entails a messenger coming to King Creon and telling him that Antigone has been buried. We sat and thought about different ideas and in the end we came to the idea of doing most of the scene as written, but instead of the sentry saying one of his really long lines, have it rewritten and reported by two news reporters instead. For the multimedia aspect of this scene we have decided to film some CCTV footage of Antigone burying her brother. I filmed and edited this myself which can be found here:
Antigone - CCTV Footage
Adding in the two News Reporters will help show the audience that the news of the burial has spread fairly fast and this will then result in Creon getting angrier and knowing that he would have to stick to his word, will end up having to kill his own niece.
The props we decided on are:

Staging
The are we have been given to perform in is a long corridor in the Theatre block near some stairs. We have split the audience so they area in two groups facing the performance space diagonally on each side. We have used a filing cabinet for the Newsreaders to sit on and a desk and chair for King Creon to sit at.
