Acting Skills Audit Lesson-6/10/2014
Lesson-6/10/2014
This lesson we spent the first hour rehearsing and going through our scenes which gave us time to implement our currently developed acting skills into our performance. During my rehearsal with my partner Eric, we continued to further develop our vocal levels and speech annunciation to ensure our dialogue would be clear to the audience in our final performance. We also continued to refine our spacial awareness by rehearsing our scenes several times but all in which we were in different proximity to each other. We further developed our spacial awareness during one of the class exercises we participated in where we were instructed to place our bodies in different positions such as tall, flat etc. I think this also developed our physical theatrical abilities and it helped us to deepen our understanding of our character's physicality.
After we finished our rehearsals, our group ran through the entire performance twice which I believe helped solidify the quality of our coming final performance. The run-through was quick and had no stoppages. The director had initially stated before the run-through that the cast would run-through the rehearsal without stopping and that this would aid us in remembering our positioning and entrances and exits throughout the entire performance which will be a contributing factor to the overall quality of the performance and each actor's individual final grade.
Great work Aaron! A detailed blog. It would be great to see some of the script uploaded with the annotations you have made as you rehearse. You could also write about the subtext exercise and the exercise last week of using your imagination to see your character’s house.
