As this is a mashup of 3 songs we have edited each song down and added a line or two for the segue between each song.
We have updated your dropbox folder with parts and lyrics for this video labelled
“BIG YELLOW TAXI SHOT 1 - VIRTUAL GIG - YOUR VOICE PART” and “BIG YELLOW TAXI SHOT 2 - VIRTUAL GIG - YOUR VOICE PART”
If you can’t find or don’t have that folder we have linked to a dropbox below which has all the voice parts in.
NOTE - you only need to sing YOUR voice part - eg Sop 1, OR Sop 2.
You can get cracking with this now, but should you want a recap session, Laura will be marking everything including the new lines on her YouTube session this WEDNESDAY 22ND APRIL.
Please wear an outfit made up of ONE COLOUR from this colour palette. Laura is demonstrating some of the options here:
This is SUPER important for when we edit everything together so please make sure you label your recording when you send it over like this:
VOICE PART - YOUR NAME - SONG TITLE - SHOT NUMBER - THE OPTION YOU CHOSE
Eg.
