My original idea... Why didn't I stick with it!!?





These were my initial thoughts on this project.

If I'm honest I should have stuck with this original idea, (my tutors agree!) however I became stuck trying to wrap up the story and as a result diverted to portraying a visual representation of the original text.

This first idea, was to have Samson as a boxer, who takes down his opponants i the ring. No bloodshed or killing. (This is how things change with the times!)

The King of the Philistine is Don King. (Perfectly cast in my opinion)

The Nazarite title is a contract, involving Hair gel or products that cannot be used with alcohol.

I had a lot of things figured out, but in the end I was struggling to keep ther story in there without totally losing the audience.

This is why I produced my final body of work as a representation of the text.

This would be the first piece of work I would RE-DO.
