thursday’s post

today lou worked on individual scenes which were napkin and departures aka kp and dan’s scenes.anyone who wasn’t in the scenes took notes on the scenes and the notes given at the end to use those notes when working on our scenes.

pg-100

i took notes on both scenes and i did find notes that i could apply to my acting

-find your different tctics, and change them so it doesn’t become boring

-think about your intentions when saying lines

-find your point of view about characters

i’m going to think about these and when we get to work with lou i’ll have some things prepared.

i did well in the warm up today.and i remembered most of my lines during the speed thoughs.i worked hard when we ran though our scene, and with the new blocking we started.

monday’s post

day 2 of acting.we played the hacky sack game again.i really like that as a warm up.then we broke up into our scenes to work on them for a bit.then we got to see some of the other scenes work which was fun and interesting because i tried to listen to try to find anything that i could use in my scene.

so today we worked on our scene.and liu gave me alot of things to work with.i’m starting to figure out and like define things about my friend and her baby.and its starting to flow alot better i think.

friday's post

today we got to ACT again.i missed it so much.we worked with loius on repetition and a game where we focused on making our partner look better,we would throw hacky sacks at each other, focusing on throwing it, and not making our partner look stupid and direct the focus on them and make them look better.it was pretty fun and interesting because i didn't used to think that doing something like that was beneficial.

pg-100
today i participated in the hacky sack game round one and two.then i did repetition with cypi and then with dan.dan totally called me out on faking it at first,and i have to admit i pre-planned.but i eventually got to being truthful because when louis asked us ow we knew if we were being truthful,dan said "if your partner says they want to kick you in the face and mean it." which i defiantly did at one point,so i'm doing alot better with misner than the begining of the year.

thursday's post
