Week 3

Last week many things were achieved…not! Just kiddin’

Ok, so this blog is a bit late but now there’s more information to write about so…

Firstly, I just booked my second audit(AAARRRRRRGGGHHH) which is scary stuff if we look at last time. “This time I plan to be much more focused on my work.” I’m going to do whatever I can to do my best for the audit. Will we get one of those question sheets like last time?

 

I’ve also just finished my SAC. I have no idea what to expect of it as I just wrote whatever I could. I have no clue if I’ve actually answered the questions. So hmmmm.

It was difficult.

 

Last week we didn’t really get much done. And I regret that we did waste time. We lost a period due to the SAC but we had the double on Tuesday. This did make a huge difference. But like Coops said it’s actually now a matter of going over everything (in this case physically) that has been blocked. Lines are the easy part to go over but using the example of Tuesday it took us a whole period to go over two or three of the physically challenging memory scenes.

 

Audiowise

I’ve been bringing the CD’s to school but because we have been rehearsing I haven’t had a chance to really put them on. I think it’s time that by the week after Fame Jared and I should have everything set in stone. Which I can see is possible.

 

Now all me and Jared have to focus on is getting the little sound cues and effects.

 

That’s all I’ve really got to say. So cheerio =P



Week 2 Term 2

22 04 2007

Firstly mood = burak if it is still relevant

Sorry for the late blog entry. BUT wow!!!! wat a weekend.

Firstly (rehearsal wise)the week was quite uneventful except for the lesson we actually rehearsed. It makes such a difference when we know our lines but it breaks the focus and energy so much when somebody forgets their lines. This week I have to work on internalising my lines. I think we need to concentrate on the physical scenes now EG burak’s and GEmmas.

Macbeth. The acting side of it was meh. But what really interested me about it was the techinical side of it. The crafts like set, how the actors used the props, the choreography, the lighting and sound used. They ways these were used really made the performance worthwhile. I guess in the scenes that were boring I had a granny farting next to me. (UGH) Great huh?

Top Acts. Wow. That blew my mind away. My mum ended up telling me that the long nose guy went to the school my mum works in. Interesting yet useless piece of information huh? It was reaaly good to debrief. But that day really gave me a reality check at how much I would have to put into this subject-blood sweat and tears.

Well audio news is that we should start playing stuff in rehearsals. I’ve brought possible cd’s but…

Anyways i gotta end this now until next week =D
