just a quick summise if its helpful

Quick Notes:

Tutorial 1:
  • Where in the world is it set? Eastern europe?
  • What year is it set in?
  • What age do we think Gregor is?
  • Colour palet? Dark colours?
  • Lower/middle class family.
  • What insect is he?
Group Brainstorm:
  • Hallway and Bedroom
  • 4 poster bed
  • chest of draws
  • single window
  • at least two doors are mentioned in the story
  • dark bedroom
  • ripped curtains on the window
  • slime and brown fluid around
  • shadows/ low light
  • dung beatle?
  • victorian designs?
  • 1910-1920?
and I've read through Metamorphosis andhighlighted references to the area the family lives in which i've managed to sumarise as there are only a few.

Where they live:
  • In an appartment
  • On an urban street call Charlotte Street
  • It's a city
  • it rains in the spring time
  • Theres a hospital of some sort accross the street
  • There is a place called The Conservatory somewhere in the city which sounds like it could be a school of some sort the way it's mentioned
  • its a rather grey area
  • there is a tower clock in the vascinity
  • there are trains and electric trams available
it probably cant be a room and a hallway cos in the story it mentions the bedroom going into the living room a lot. sounds like they're right next to one another?

    Yer it does sound like they are right next to eachother and they describe things that are in the living room which would give us more to work with rather than just a hallway?

    ah so we are dealing with a cockroach not a spider? makes sense..are we going to deal with 2 rooms connected together instead of a hallway connecting as that would just be more work for us all?
