Like this but more natural, the flower crown/ gold crown weaved into our hair, pinned back behind the head.

These are the costumes we were balr to buy yesterday, we all have identical matching outfits so it will look nice on camera. We will add flowers from around the area to our hair. We will also use eyeliner to paint the pagan water and spirit symbol on our bodies (small, delicate, but there) and likely a small one under the eye. Mostly natural makeup, earthy tones but nothing too dark.

Intent:
Draws upon linguistic elements from Ghost River (personification of river via use of pronouns/ project intent upon the river)
Could use more references to pollution, superstition and death, just a draft for now with a small story arc.
References to my river vs the river I found are intended to respond to the how the river boy's perception of the river has changed over time.
Technically errs on the side of free verse poetry over prose

A series of photographs presented in a photo book. Same idea just in photograph form.

We changed the idea because we realised the original idea was far to hard and wouldve been extremely time consuming. We agreed on photographs as

The water symbol should be used as a motif throughout the design and costuming (spirit and fire symbol also used)

Wiccans (praisers) - painted onto face, body and clothes
River spirit- used throughout the costuming wherever possible (somewhere centered near the head is best)

Throughout the filming we can make the upside down triangle (water symbol) with our hands- the more this symbols shows throughout the production the better.

We can also build a pire in this shape using thin branches and zipties IF POSSIBLE

Makeup: heavy eyeliner (essential ritual makeup), we can use body paint to smear markings on our face during the filming as a mix of bare face/ full makeup shots would be good.

Simple pagan hairstyles, very ceremonial. This is topped with a flower crown that matches the river spirit costume (likely blue flowers- we can buy these somewhere).

wiccan (praiser) - white hooded cloak, can add relevant symbols (link to the river spirit costume)

- ''She is calm right there. In her heart. The Ghost River, she's there waiting for you. You find yourself in trouble, you look out for her.''

The first time I heard the story a shiver went through my body and I was forced to swallow spit before I could talk. ''A ghost river?''

''The Ghost River,'' he nodded. ''All she is. You believe in her, she's there to take care of you. If you're no believer that girl will take you down and teach you a rock-hard lesson. Don't expect her be spitting you back neither. You fuck up on her, you never be coming back.''

- ''When a fella has a clean soul the river takes hold of his body before it's lost, lifts it up and tells it to float along there until it finds a home. Tiny found a home in that old tree. That's why it fell over in the first place, back then, in the wet. That tree was waiting for him to come by.''

''Now, if a man's soul is dark and dirty, the ghost river drags that body to the bottom and buries it in the mud. The body is trapped there, like in old Purgatory there, for Mr Lucifer to come up through the earth and claim that fella for his own self.''

Piece to Respond to:
Ghost River (Creative Writing)

Idea:
Respond to the themes of ritual, supernatural and spiritual experience, praising the river.

We will make a short film of our group members performing a ritual in honour of the river. We will light a fire and dance around it, another group member will play a form of the river itself in a grotesque costume with a mask.

IN THE END- WE ALL DIE AS THE RIVER CONSUMES US TO LIVE ETERNALLY WITH HER.
