We visited a primary school as part of our research process to be able to develop the story and design process by asking the children to draw moments of the story of Hansel and Grettel. We worked with the children in groups and asked them to draw a moment that stuck out to them, the table that I was working on chose to focus on the gingerbread house scene and the witches relationship to the children characters.
It was interesting to see how the children viewed the characters in relation to each other and some of their reactions weren't what I expected for example a couple of them did not see the witch as a threatening character. I found the process of allowing the children to draw the story very interesting and a good way of helping the design as this process has influenced the deign of our production quite a lot.
