In-Progress Report (Take 2)

    Tatyana and I are still following the journey of Play-Doh shoes, but we changed the setting from an outdoor scene, to a kitchen scene where the two shoes are travelling through an obstacle-ridden journey to meet for coffee.  During the in-class critique, we discussed how we didn't want the lighting to change with the time of day.  With an indoor setting, we are able to control the weather and lighting, thus preventing either factors from adding unintentional meanings to our concept.  We also felt we could be more expressive with the obstacles the shoes were presented with.  Also, we decided against using two pairs of shoes, and are instead having each character be portrayed as a single shoe.  Dil is a pink shoe with blue laces, and Duh's color scheme is inverted with pink laces on a blue shoe.  Using only two shoes adds to the meaning of their journey, coming together so they can be a single pair.  Lastly, we added an owl figurine that lurks in the background throughout the piece, not only serving as an obstacle himself, but suggesting that he is the one creating all of the obstacles for Dil and Duh.
