Progress Report

The play seems to be going well. I'm not involved in any of the filming or acting. I have been helping Tristin with his Behind the Scenes video. We have a large amount of footage. There might be more interviews to be made. There is still editing to do. Filming with flip cameras and computers seems to be a problem to the camera crew. Unfortunately, I don't think the final presentation will be in HD. I don't know how good of quality the flip cameras provide. I don't think it will be that big of an issue. I think the Facebook portion should have been made a page instead of a profile. It would have allowed easy access from students. Multiple people could have been made an admin without having to log into a separate account.

Music for Love Scene

http://www.allmusic.com/album/only-the-love-songs-r735953

The song "It's Magic" would make a good love song. There are other songs on the website that could also be used. Morgan stated that certain songs could be used more than once for a specific mood. This is a possible option.

Act 1 Scene 2a - Scene1c+2b

Master is throwing a party. He needs to use Romeo to write the invites because he can't read. At the party, Romeo is to find a woman to love. Benvolio discovers while talking to Romeo that he already loves a woman.
During the part when The party is being discussed, I pictured silence up until when Romeo says he already loves a woman. At that point soft instrumental music commences.

Romeo & Juliet Summary 1

There are two families that have had beef with each other for generations. Two men from the two families get into a disagreement. One bites their thumb at the other one. They draw their swords and start fighting. Then another man shows up and starts fighting too. I imagine hardcore rap during the fight.
