Golden Bodge: Difference between revisions

Hyped by the previous years' success, [[Emily Torricelli]] and [[Grace Winpenny]] came with a pre-written song for this year's bodge - "One Bodge More", which was based on "One Day More" from Les Miserables. [[Lloyd Wallis]] returned this year as a Kinda-PaSTA, but was initially skeptical about pulling the same stunt as 2014 without having something knew and cool and different or somesuch.

Some drinks followed, and a discussion between most of the station's attendees, including [[Thomas Cheyney]] and [[Liz Pascoe]] went on for some time - the plan to play [[Cards Against YSTV]] lay forgotten. But it was [[Sam Nicholson]] that proposed the idea that got people interested. We could use ''Social Media''. We would follow the rules. We would still do the song. We would still be awesome.

Initially, Snapchat was proposed - each role would Snapchat their line to the others, and then the next would, and so on. However, this had a time limit of each line, and severely limited the number of takes available. Vine had similar issues. Eventually, we concluded the best bet was YouTube videos embedded on Twitter timelines - you can see the result at [https://twitter.com/LloydW93/lists/one-bodge-more]. We could then technically shoot out of order - the video that was submitted was a single-shot, single-take piece of content. We did end up staying almost in order though, which was nice.

Outtakes exist, most notably of [[Peter Eskdale]] missing a shot and loudly shouting "FUUUUCK". Also of not is that [[Thomas Cheyney]] was not intended to have original lines - [[Lloyd Wallis]]'s production skills were just so good that he skipped straight over those lines entirely from the script and didn't realise until the end. However, it did give Tom an excuse to get changed into his suit very quickly. [[Chris Wall]] was unavailable for the second part of the shoot, so an Asian substitute was found.

Whilst slightly drunk, [[Lloyd Wallis]] noted that, putting aside all of the other flaws with LSU's exec song, that there were far better choices for a parody out there. Due to the current box office offerings, the first example was "Let It Go". Lloyd vaguely drunkenly belted out half a chorus and as far as his memory is concerned woke up the next morning with a new friend.
