This is Courtney, the project manager from the American team. Today we just finished our weekly meeting for the project. We have read through your last blog post and discussed some of your ideas. Our team doesn't want to stereotype our cultures, but we liked the original idea we had discussed during our Skype meeting, with the project being a rock opera type of show.
At our last Skype meeting we discussed the idea of having a "day in the life" theme for the project. Your team mentioned having one common character and gave Ziggy Stardust as an example. Have you thought of developing the common character or a plot for the project?
Last week, our group discussed musical references to use for the project. We looked at a few videos from the artist, DJ Danger Mouse. DJ Danger Mouse took the Beatle's "White Album" and merged it with Jay-Z's "Black Album" to make his own concept album, the "Grey Album". Here is an example of one of the videos: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbXLp2z6xL4.
Giorgia has suggested the project managers meet through Skype on Thursday, 19th at 1:30 (Italian time). We are hoping to discuss a clear and final plan for the project, so that our teams can start writing for recording in January.
I'm looking forward to talking to you about the project!
Bye! :D
Courtney
