Week 6



We worked really well together by being cooperative and contributing. We split the work into different parts for each member of the group so we would have equal amounts of work. To make sure that we were all clear we had a group discussing to make sure that we are clear about what we were doing, we also answered any queries of the other members of the group. Zainab and I came last lunch to make sure the puppets are done and we also had taken some of the puppets home to modify and improve them.

Reflection Week 3-4


  • I think we can improve our work by making our drawings more details, Because when performing the puppets should be identified.
  • We could also make our drawing bigger, because when the puppets are behind the transparent sheet it might become smaller. Especially, since you have to position the puppets a little bit away to show the puppets clearly.

After drawing the draft designs, we used some inspiration to to create the drawings






We have made a list of what we need to draw. We have then discussed who is going to design or sketch each picture. We have decided to finish the final drawing for next Thursday. Our group have also decided that we would make 2 designs for some of the characters. This is because, if we make 2 designs we can check the design specification to see if the drawing has met the level. I think the next stage of the process is to focus more on the Phantasmagoria's side of the performance. So that means to create the scary pictures and the projector. However, we might struggle when combining shadow puppets and phantasmagoria together. Due to this, we have to make sure that our group is clear with what their role is and to be organized
