Friday 29th of November 2013
In lesson we rehearsed our monologues so that sir could recorded them so then we could look back at the videos what sir had taken and we could change anything that we did not think was right sir would then give us feedback of how we could change it so for me he said that I could pretend to show that he was there and a would scramble forward but then he would pull me back before the audience could reach out and grab me away from him.
My theory is that I dont know how I did on the video and I will have to wait till Monday to find out and then see what parts I need to change and how I could change them so when can I ask the audience questions and when can I try to get them to help me.
My exercise was to practise my monologue so that I could then get sir to video me then on Monday I could watch the video back and see what I had to change and what parts I should take out that maybe don't look so good I would then practise the changes and see if they worked.
My personal response is that I really excited about doing the performance and the dance and like I have said in every blog I really hope the audience will love and hate it at the same time so some bits will make them feel sick and others make them fell sorry for the character.
Hope the all my classmates are ready for the big night hope I do well and they do well and hope the performance is scary and all of the story's are twisted and nasty like my friend who is playing Santa clause i hope everybody monologues go well.
Again Aleysha, you are working really well on your performance. Remember what we talked about after we filmed your monologue on Friday, and how you can begin to involve the audience. Actually addressing them and asking them the difficult questions. Remember Artaud believed that you can express the characters emotions and fears through sounds. It is an assault against the senses that is meant to be a struggle for the audience to cope with. How can you show what your character went through without telling?
