After our meeting with Dan, Luke and Matt, our idea has been adjusted slightly and we now are going to use strobe lighting towards the end and possibly poke small holes in the wall to shine lights through it. We are also adding a few features such as a bay window, curtains and various decorations on the wall to make the set look as much like a parent's living room as possible. We are thinking outlines on the wall where pictures have been taken down, and possibly a TV among other features. Below is the sort of basic idea we want the room to look like.
The main issues were how to have the changeover from 'normal house party' to 'uber tippy house party', which we have overcome by introducing UV and strobe lighting after the 'electric feel'. Also being introduced is UV paint and the glo-sticks to accentuate the change in atmosphere. Another point lighting-wise, is that we have now scrapped the concept of the hidden lights on the set and are now going to show 'crappy party lights' around the band to give the audience the impression that it's quite a large party and a fair bit of money has gone into it.
The only addition we made to the set apart from the bay window was a panel behind the door, so that we can have people moving in and out of the room. In the end due to safety issues, we scrapped the idea of lights shining up through the floor as it would weaken the structure of the set. We are now only making holes in the walls.
