Papin

This week we were sent out of our comfort zone, with nothing more than a large camera and the idea “a day in the life of…”. My aspiring artistic group consisted of Wilson, DJ Searle, Lewis, Jamie, Mazz, Ryan and Phil. Initially we came up with the un-original idea “A day in the life of a student”, so we went to the pub, as to portray student life in the most accurate way. After a few pints and a couple of games of pool, during which Dan used a combination of magnets, well aimed draughts and slight of hand to cheat his way to victory over me, we decided that all students know how the life of a student works. So while the team were formulating a crack plan, me and Dan were “Paping” (Paparazzi) each other. This lead to the idea of following some random public member, taking pictures of them and not getting caught. This was deemed to be a little extreme, so we concocted the following plan:
1 Person #1 wakes up with person #2, and isn’t happy. This was shot outside CM033 on the seats, as we couldn’t find any nearby beds. It was at this point that person #1 should be Wilson, and person #2 should be Mazz (as he had already exposed himself earlier, so he fits the character profile)
2 person #1 identifies person #2 in a police line-up
3 Person #2 tracks down person #1 to the top of the Greenbank building for revenge
4 Elaborate fight scene, with a matrix-style thing (which didn’t look that good)
5 person #2 throws person #1 off balcony

With this super plan, we set out and caught it all on film, at various locations across the university campus. Despite the plot being as clear as a Stephan Segal movie, we had lots of fun, and gathered a lot of quality blackmail material, as shown below. Here’s looking at you Nikki!
