As the week progressed we spoke with one of our tutors about our project or "journey" they questioned about what we were actually going to record and the amount of time that was actually going to be involved editing the sequence and piece together, although being narrowed mind we were convinced the project was nothing we couldn't handle.
However after a couple of days of collecting separate clips for the timeline and experimenting with how we were going to record and manipulate sound dialogue to make it appear that it was a radio transmission we realised the depth of what we had got ourselves involved in. It was at this point that we started brainstorming again for another story. With the idea that we had come up with, it was something that shouldn't be rushed and spoilt just to fit in with the two week time limit.
We also felt that the idea we wanted (key moments of the last hundred years) was going to majority made up of things that we couldn't actually record. This kinda defeated the brief of the task as well which could result in some very negative feedback.
After some thought and floating ideas, I came up with the idea of the journey and creation of a paper plain. So it would start with a child playing and creating the paper plain then progress to throw the plain and the obstacles/events that the paper plain could actually encounter during its flight. This idea allowed us to record multiple sounds that we could make and layer them, sticking to the brief It is also a slightly unique idea, something that the audience may not understand at first but as the sound plays will let them relate too.
