How Gargantua was Born in a Strange Manner

Today we finally performed our strange cabaret to the rest of the Illustration group, it seemed to go down well, and we managed to create an appropriate atmosphere with a red lamp and our choice of eerie music...

Here are some photos taken of us performing:

Gargantua, the baby...

Our short performance is almost ready, we are acting a small extract from The Life of Gargantua and of Pantagruel, a 16th Century tale. Our chapter is " How Gargantua was born in a strange manner" - so, of course we need a newborn Gargantua!
The head is paper mache (shaped over a balloon) finished with Acrylic, Varnish and some human hair!

Cabaret ...set Photos...

So, today we started filming for our Cabaret project, as part of the Illustration course at Camberwell.
Photos aren't amazing, but just to show the costumes and some of the fun we had!
