Section 1: Rationale (approx. 100 words)  My time with college has helped me develop skills with being socially and helping with my confidence. When we were doing ghost light tours, I was so nervous that I would mess up, during my performance I did improvise a lot during my performance to make it a great experience for the people that came to see the ghost light tours. When ghost light tours ended, I then looked at my assignment for it and sectioned it off one by one so I could do one bit one day and the other the next, I spoke about in assignment about looking at costume and researching the character I was for ghost light which was a clown and im a big horror fan so I wrote down colour schemes, their mannerisms and what I can do to bring to the stage and make it a creepy atmosphere along with the other people that were clowns. I then wrote about everything that happened during the days at ghost light and what I did during them and how I rehearsed before shows and makeup trials and everything in general. When it came close to the Christmas show my son Pinocchio I was really exited since I knew it was going to be a magical experience and instantly looked at the characters and choose Stew since it was quite a hilarious and ditsy character and researched costumes and did a bit of research behind the other shows that also had Stew in so I could have some inspiration and wrote in down in my assignment that was released before show days started, I also noted down everything during the show days what I did what exercises I did during rehearsals to get into that fairy ditsy character and when it was over and started focusing more on my assignment I wrote about all the preparations I had done for the show, what I thought and how well I did and what I could’ve done better and overall everything. When it came to rehearsals for DNA and normalised I was quite nervous since I went for the main character Jay and in my assignment for DNA and normalised I wrote about my preparations and what I did and how I got my character Phill and how the show days started and my overall performance in both shows and noted what I learnt from DNA which was to be better prepared for shows and to not overthink what I do. And what I wrote in my assignment about Normalised is about my ensemble work on to make my actions bigger during intense scenes and moments and to never be afraid to. For second year I aim to write about everything, write every detail about everything I did during the shows and to always focus on the questions and to not stress about assignments and not leave it to write and do loads of research for it and to stich its in.
Section 2: Project concept (approx. 200 words)
When we were first told that we were going to do the show, I got to researching quickly, I wanted to know more about the show, so I watched the movie to see how it is depicted on screen and analyzed some of the characters so I could see what character to go for in the show, I leaned more towards the character of Buckley salmon, the little boy who is the youngest of the family and the brother of susie salmon who gets murdered and what the play is about. I then when out I researched some color schemes and outfits for the character I wanted to go for and go for, I then discussed with the same character as me in a different class to use each other's ideas to help each other and I thought about props for the set like child toys and cars and building blocks and pictures of me as a young child to make the salmon home feel like a home. During my time with rehearsals for lovely I intend to put what I have learned over the past year and show it on stage because this shows has a very dark and emotional meaning to it and I want to give my all and make the audience moved because its a performance I really care about and strive to make it the best for others and myself.
Section 3: Evaluation (approx. 50 words)
When I joined college, we were informed about a website called “Blogger”, we used this website to write what we did in our daily lessons and what we learned in each of them and the games we did and how it helped us, we also use this website to write our evaluation of our performance and what we did and how it helped us in our performance.

Project action plan and timetable:  
This section provides you with an opportunity to outline your planning and organisation over a period of weeks and the activities you will need to carry out in order to successfully complete your project in the agreed time frame. The more time and thought you give to planning your project, the more successful it is likely to be. 
It is important that you consider how you will balance ambition, time and realism in the realisation of the project. You should also include what you are going to do, how you will do it and by when. Remember to include: time spent sourcing materials and other resources to conduct research, seek feedback from tutors and peers, and identify when you will carry out independent study. 

Bibliography (Harvard Format): 
This section provides an opportunity to record the initial research sources, both primary and secondary, that you intend to use.Your sources of research should be as wide as possible and could include libraries, galleries, books, magazines, films, computer games, websites, blogs, social media, radio programmes, archive material etc. Where appropriate, you should use the Harvard system of referencing. The bibliography should be continuously updated as the project progresses.
