in class we did iambic pentameter, which is a pain in the ass. i mean its great if you understand it,but i just dont get why we have to talk like that. why is there beats and syllables involved? why did shakespeare want people to talk like that?
though i'm actually getting how to do the i.p but what i dont understand is how you act with that? just me saying it with the accents sounds forced and pretty stupid. then again i just learned it today,and were going to learn to say it in a natural way.
memorizing is going well,and im trying to use the i.p when memorizing now, but like i said it sounds kind of stupid. im guessing were going to work on i.p. and acting on thursday? i hope so because i'm hoping it will help me understand the flow of i.p. more.
we have head shots tomorrow! i hate pictures so much. and last year i really didn't like my headshot. i'm going to try to wear something simplier this year,and not blue because my eyes don't look good with blue; i learned that after last year. hopefully i'm not as stiff or fake like i was last year.
pg-100
today i really tried with the i.p. i took my notes and tried it on the board during class. i think something just wasn't clicking, so i went home and worked the i.p. into my monologue and i think i did a pretty good attempt. im not sure if everything is right,but i really did try to understand it on my own today.
