PLANNING: THINKING ABOUT THE WRITING STICKY NOTES

Today we brainstormed possible notes and sayings we could use on our sticky notes, that the nice guy leaves behind for the girl. We decided to make them short and sweet, so as not to distract from the main plot line and to ensure the audience would be able to have enough time to read them. Here is a selection we came up with:

• "Shall I compare thee to a summers day"
• "you have beautiful eyes"
• "You make time stand still"
• "Pretty as a picture" 
• "can you feel the chemistry"
• "Ma belle" 

We decided that we would place the sticky notes deliberately onto books they related to in order to show a connection. For example we placed "Can you feel the chemistry", onto a chemistry textbook; as well as placing "Pretty as a picture", onto an art book. We found that by doing this it made the notes seem clever and original. This also positions the male character as thoughtful and intelligent, qualities the protagonist is looking for in a man.
