I'm not sure we realised how much time it would take to choreograph the 264 pupils at Mildmay to perform twelve different scenes, but thanks to the dedication and vision of the teachers and parents, we managed it!
Over two days filming from 9.15 in the morning until the final bell rang at 2.45 each day, we ranged around the school using all sorts of innovative locations. The tigers went to the wood in Chelmer park, the monkeys took bananas and coconuts to the wood-chip enclosure, the sea-creatures moved beautifully and brightly around the boat in the nursery play area.
Everyone really came together to contribute fantastic costumes, ideas, chants, energy and enthusiasm- Christopher and I take our hats off to Vicki and the rest of the staff for making a hard task much much easier!
We will add some pictures soon- in the meantime good luck to Christopher as he starts the editing!
