After speaking with Sean im still unsure as to which idea to run with but need to draw up a few ideas first to see which would work best.
My first idea is to create a small scale shadow puppet show, printing onto fabric to create different backdrops and cutting detailed shiloettes into card- experimenting with lighting effects etc a light hearted, silent movie style performance. Punch and Judy esk, with audience gathered around the mini stage
The other was to be much more invasive and for the shadows to take over an entire space- reflecting onto walls or perhaps in a confined space. Want the puppets to be all you see and for it to dominate the space its displayed in.
When discussing the themes, i'd forgotten that the brief had stated the puppets have some link with Birmingham City...but could encorporate this by reflecting city scenes or iconic buildings onto the walls. I need to encorporate the city in some way...
