(post 25) Working from a script - sound

Foley Sound Needed: Harsh Breeze/Wind: this will be made either by waiting for a windy day and taking the microphone outside to get the sound, or finding a clip of YouTube or elsewhere that has a long enough clip so that there wouldn't be much repetition. This sound shouldn't be too loud, otherwise it'll block the sound of the actors. It would only be applied to the end of the scene, where Edmund is heading towards the Witch's castle, and the others are trying to stop him. This would make this scene more tense and dramatic, making the situation seem more helpless. The wind would die down after Mr. Beaver told them to stop because Edmund's the bait. This would show the realisation, and having to accept Edmund leaving until they find Aslan. --- show how this was done Non-Diegetic Sound Needed: Music: Possibly not needed, but it could be used quietly when coming to see the homely Beavers' Dam, or the tense moment at the end where I suggested the wind could be, thi...

List of the settings in your script -Beavers cozy dam -The woods/ forest -Beavers lodge -winter forest night -castle lake -castle hill, the open gate Sketches of how you envisage these settings to look   Images and google maps screen grabs of potential settings that can work and reasons why When we were researching into setting ideas, we felt the idea of bewilder woods treehouses would be a perfect fit for our ideas for the Beavers Lodge.

In the script for Narnia, these are our list of characters:   Mr Beaver Mr Beaver is a comical character, however he also plays a crucial role in telling the Pevensie's children that they play a crucial role in killing the Ice Queen and that Aslan is waiting for them. He seems to be the eyes and the ears of Narnia although no one expects it. Mr Tumnus and Mr Beaver seem to be close acquaintances as he gave Mr beaver the handkerchief before he got taken.  Mrs Beaver Mrs Beaver is also a comical character. She plays a 'typical' 'old fashioned' female as when the children arrive she tells them that she hasn't had time to do her fur, and to "excuse the mess" as if it is her job to tidy the house. She is also the one to tell the children that they are the two sons of Adam and the two daughters of Eve.  Lucy Pevensie Lucy Pevensie is the youngest out of the children. She was also the first to enter Narnia although that isn't th...
