we are organizing a flash mob That is simillar to the "Bang"
flash mob that is popular all around the world.
Except we incorporate the "international-chess" theme into
it as we are promoting a documentary project we're doing that
is on board-gamers in melbourne.
THE FLASH MOB
The Mob will start out with people mingling in the crowd
when all of the sudden, 2 individuals would draw an imaginary
gun at each other which in turn causes a chain reaction of guns
being drawn (like in those mafia movies!). there will be a huge
stand off and would shortly turn into a "gun battle" with everyone
shooting their gun shaped hand and shouting "BANG BANG!"
it ends with everybody falling to the ground dramatically
when being 'shot'
Here is a youtube link of a similar flashmob:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoXwFcBmlpw
The background story is that it's an abstract idea of the
2 chess-game armies fighting each other with guns,
as if the setting is in the modern world.
Details:
Dress in either Black or white.
I would suggest white
because i predict most will turn up in black anyway.
a king and queen will be chosen and will have a label
taped to the back and front of his/her shirt to represent the
leader of the chess Army!
any questions pls sms
chris @ 0430006634 or feel free to write on the wall.
tentatively it'll be on Monday, 24th May.
We will meet outside RMIT Building 9,
corner of Bowen Street and Franklin Street.
we are aiming for about 50 people or more to participate!
thank you!

It is out!
Calling out too all melbourners!
we are organizing a flash mob with a "chess" themed but with a twist.
everyone involved,dressed in either black or white, and mingle around bowen street.
suddenly, one guy with a "Chess Queen labled" tshirt points a finger gun (your hands shaped like a gun) at another guy with a "black chess queen" labled tshirt, who points back, and suddenly everyone starts drawing guns and pointing at each other. the white chess queen shouts "checkmate buddy" and shout"bang!" after which everyone will shout "bang! bang!" followed by every one falling to the ground dramatically and die.
this would be similar to the "bang" flashmobs that can be found on youtube. it's simple, fun and draws attention.
Details:
Dress in either Black or white, if you have any apparels that make you look like a chess piece, even better!
a king and queen will be chosen and will have a label taped to the back and front of his/her shirt.
meet at around 1.30pm outside block 9 after which we will move behind for a briefing.
interested parties do show up any questions pls sms
0430006634 to chris.
tentatively it'll be on friday, 14th May. there might be changes after receiving response.
we are aiming for about 50people to participate! thank you!

PP1 content producer. Flashmob.
It's not looking good. as the time to the end of semester draws nearer, the reality of producing a flashmob in 2 weeks time seems impossible with the piling workload.
however there is still a spark of possibility.
we need to change the idea abit.
but the flash mob has to be
1. Cost effective
2. interesting
3.fast
4. easy to learn (dances will be out)
and easy to set up.
and of course, it has to centre around board games. (or not?)
i do wonder if we can just do a flash mob for the fun of it.
hmmmmmm.
i have one idea though,
get 2 groups of people, one dressed in black the other in white, and they mingle around bowen street.
suddenly one guy with a "Chess Queen labled" tshirt points a finger gun (your hands shaped like a gun) at another guy with a "black chess queen" labled tshirt and suddenly everyone starts drawing guns and pointing at each other. the white chess queen shouts "checkmate buddy" and "bang bang bang every one falls to the ground and die.
kinda like this:
lets see how it goes
