Initial Thoughts - Theme
When thinking of a British theme to work from I went through a lot of different options. I found it very difficult to come up with idea that sat within popular culture, because I didn't want it to be too obvious - although I am a fan of things like Harry Potter, Sherlock and Doctor Who. I feel like I have seen it all before.

Sweeney Todd - Demon Barber of Fleet Street
When thinking about British stories/etc I reminded myself of Sweeney Todd. Although the film is not completely British, the story and subject matter is - so I feel that is enough to go on for my poster. I am a huge fan of anything theatrical or musical so this is a good balance for me.
I started off by listing things I may want to focus on in my work. Already, I am thinking about this in terms of character, as this is something I want to work on more within my practice. In terms of this, Mrs Lovett intrigued me as a starting point.
