Background
Directing this script posed a challenge as it involved working with an existing celebrity linked to the genre being parodied (Magic). The script's strict constraints allowed little room for changes, making careful planning essential for maximum impact before shooting began. The need for thorough preparation emphasised the importance of strategic arrangements to navigate constraints and achieve the intended comedic and satirical goals on set.
Execution
Comedy is the heartbeat that paces this spot - Working with established actors playing into the stereotypes of the period romance genre, whilst in a modern situation causes miscommunications and hilarity. Allowing the actors room to perform with exaggerated vigour plays into the absurdity.
