A - On your blog, outline, the journey that you have previously been on in regards to your year 1 performance  roles that you have undertaken,  take the reader through your journey  from your initial starting point at college performing wise through to your final performance of The Railway children or The lovely Bones. Outline carefully the progress that you have made from ‘Ghost Light Tours’ through to the end of year shows.

 

B- Identify any gaps in your performing, what is missing in terms of developing your skillset, is it a light hearted role, a dramatic role, a duologue, a monologue, a song, physical theatre, a classical piece, dance etc etc– outline everything you wish to achieve in your performing journey. We will use this to set challenges, targets and goals.

 
Ghost Light Tours
During this show I was nervous to perform in front of everyone since it was my first time doing a show like this, but over time I got comfortable with the people I worked with and spoke about our ideas for what we want to do for our section of the show, I then was considering what I could bring to the table and showed I was capable of great teamwork and listening skills and created something up together and it helped me a lot with working with others as an ensemble.
My son Pinocchio
I was exited to work on a magical project like Pinocchio and work with new people. During the show it helped me a lot with characterisation and how to go big as a character since the character Stew is a fairy and is quite clumsy and it was a Disney production so I had to think about how to bring the Disney magic to life and it introduced me to not be afraid to go big and to step in the spotlight and to be loud and it also helped me a lot with ensemble work when I wasn't stew.
DNA
During the production of DNA and I was given the role of Phill I knew I had a lot of responsibility placed for me since Phill is my total opposite. It challenged me to control the stage since Phill was a very authorize character and had to work with using his silence as power and it also taught me a lot how much effort it takes to produce a show.
The Lovely Bones
During the production of lovely bones it helped me a lot with diction and speaking in different accents and projection since we were in a theatre room so I had to not go big but big enough so people could hear me and worked a lot on my emotional performances since it was a realistic show and worked on characterisation since I was a child and was a comic relief character since I wasn't as serious as the other characters.

In conclusion these shows helped me on my journey to where I am today and has helped me so much with my confidence in acting and to never be afraid to take chances to be in the spotlight.

    Section B
I definitely still need to work on projection as I have a tendency to quiet when I talk. For targets I just aim to go big in my performances and to not overthink during my performances.

6th - 8th may

  Monday NOT IN Tuesday Today we did a warm up were we had to ignore Suzie because myself and others struggled not to look at her so we did that. After that we worked on a few scenes that needed work on and I thought about how I could use the space during them. Wednesday Today, Tom helped us with American accents and taught us a few ways to help with them and listened to other peoples ideas of how they learn. After we worked on the beginning scene where all the dead kids introduce the show to make it more interesting and to help keep it going. We then worked on the funeral scene to capture the emotion and to make it more dramatic when Lindsey sees Mr Harvey and when Ruth slightly sees Suzie when she says her speech. Thursday Today we just run through some scenes of Lovely scenes and looked over some that needed worked on. We couldn't do much some most of the people needed were in Jayne Eyre, at 1 we then took off to watch and to support our friends that were in it.
