Fuente 3.5 3.6 3.7

So the master returns! I don't really understand his place in the play. Because he's not a part of the commanders men, but he doesn't really live in fuenteovejuna either, s I'm not are where he belongs. But basically after hearing about the murder at fuenteovejuna he's determined to tell fernidand and isabel, and kill fuenteovejuna himself.

The townpeoples strength really surprises me. Not one of them cracked and they endured the pain. It's kind of crazy that such a large group like a whole town could stick together that well. I think even Laurencia and frondonso were surprised that fuenteovejuna held together like that. Because they were both worried about the "inquision" with the judge. But the townspeople eventually tire him out.

Then the townspeople go to Ferdinand and Isabel and plead their case, while the master pleads his case of just killing off the village. But ferdinand eventually forgives the village and frondonso and Laurencia stay in love. Their whole story I feel is either completely covered up by othe action of the play or is the full focus of the play, so it's nice to hear how they end.

Today I got to hear a read through with my actors, for the very first time. I'm happy with the sound of the screen play, even though I know that will change once the cameras on. I really tried to help with their character work, and to get them as a group of characters rather than individually working with them. They all have a very good dynamic wih each other and clearr opinions of the other kids in their class. Plus today we learned about film lights which I am very excited for, because they're completely different than stage lights. They're going to be used in a very close space so designing for that is completely different than I'm used to.
