After extensive research and conversations with local residents, it has been decided that Fleet Street needs rescuing. Its previously buzzing personality is under threat of being trampled by commuter traffic and blinkered pedestrians.
So... we are going to bring some old-style Paparazzi madness back onto the street!
We will combine two tried-and-tested games - PhotoRun and Stickerazzi - for an hour of silliness and fun.
We will meet at 1pm where someone will explain the rules and hand you your stickers. The game will run for just under an hour, so we should be finished by 2.30pm.
You will need to bring a digital camera/camera phone, everything else will be provided on the day.
If you want to join in, email me at info(at)rebeccasteiner(dot)co(dot)uk and I will send you the details.
See you on Monday! Rebecca
NB. This is part of a university project and will be documented online. Images may be posted on Flickr following the event.
Game outlines:
PhotoRun In Photorun you are a Paparazzi. The game involves chasing down your friends and stealthily attempting to capture them on camera, in order to sell their image to the newspapers. The first person to capture all the other players wins - but remember, they are all trying to catch you, too!
Stickerazzi Similar to the above, but with stickers. Players are in two teams: Sticks and Paps. Two teams means two winners!
Sticks: Each Stick has a pack of coloured stickers that they can place as they wish around the street. They win points every time their sticker is photographed by a Pap - double the points if it is photographed on a moving object (vehicle/person/anything in motion!). However, if a Pap catches them placing a sticker, they lose points. Paps: Paps try to win points by photographing stickers of any colour. The Pap who captures the most stickers wins. Extra points for capturing a Stick in the process of placing his sticker!
