Week Beginning the 31st March

On Tuesday 31st March,this is the Costume I will be wearing when performing my monologue as India.

India's costume

I chose this costume because my character India loves fashion, so she would wear clothes that are trendy and seen on today’s high street.

Idea for India's costume from mood board

This image was featured on my mood board when I was creating my characters look. It is a style that is worn by young people who are confident and love fashion. India is someone who enjoys being looked at, she loves getting attention from anyone that will make her feel wanted and loved. How she looks is important to her because she feels her life is a movie so she must look perfect everyday and ready for the camera to start filming.

Week Beginning the 13th January

On Monday 13th January, we had to search for context about the play “Citizenship”. The two questions we were given were: 1. Ways to research 2. What will we research? This was what I got from answering these questions: National Theatre Mark Ravenhill I was put in a group with Hanna, Henok, Louis and Aso. In our groups we would have to make a presentation about the context of “citizenship”. We decided that Hanna and Henok would make the slide show. Myself and Louis would do the research as Aso would find photos. This showed teamwork, we decided and agreed our roles quickly as it was the end of the lesson. We then went into our groups for “Citizenship” and rehearsed our lines. I helped Ashleigh, we worked well as a team. Underplay = Making something less important than it is. E.g breaking your leg and saying it does not hurt. Overplay = To make something bigger than it is. E.g If someone got a pap...

Week Beginning the 16th March

On Monday 16 th March, we got into pairs and read our monologues to each other. I partnered with Louis. His monologue is about a group of teenagers who bully someone to their death, but later find out he is still alive . I thought Louis should say his monologue in a slower and clearer voice because I felt he had rushed his speech. This also showed that he was not in character. We were then given these four emotions: Happy Sad Confused Joyous We took turns to perform, the class choose the emotion for each of us to do. With my monologue, I was told to perform in a confused way. After performing Rob believed that I should talk from my stomach as I was talking from my throat. Talking from your stomach helps your voice become clearer and louder, the audience will be able to hear and see a better performance from you. I will learn from that when rehearsing at home. On Tuesday 17 th March, we made a profile for our monologues character. We wrote about who are ...

UNIT 1 - 26th September 2019

Practical Lesson 1: Today in practical work the first thing we did was musical chairs. We then went over the beginning for our piece for identity. We added a scene where class mate mark did his verbatim. The rest of us were in a semi-circle behind him. The people in the semi-circle would go to someone on the opposite side and pretend to talk with them but mouthing without speaking. I thought whilst doing this it was silly but had a laugh. Practical Lesson 2: In the second practical, we went over what we did in the first practical lesson. The next person to do their verbatim was Simon. Whilst he was saying his we got Dee to be a lost student who couldn’t find her class. She would ask help from the people in the semi-circle but no one would help. She then went to Simon but he refuses to help her. When he leaves her the rest of us would start to circle her saying “you got no friends”. Every time we said the line the volume would get louder. We would repeat thi...
