Lesson 8

This week, we ran through the whole show with lighting in the studio theatre. This meant that we could start to get the feel of the performance because the lights were on which made us add more characterisation to our performance because its starting to finally come together. We also recorded this lesson to give us an insight as to how the performance looks.

This week our strengths as a team were running through the whole show as a team to see where abouts we are with the production and which sections need work. As we were running the production, the members of the cast that weren't on stage at that present time would have a 'peer feedback' sheet to fill out which we would then read out at the end of the lesson to help each other for improvements. This was another strength because it shows that we are working as a team to improve each others grade.

However, this week, I thought our weakness was that we could of tried harder when performing as it was being recorded. Not everyone was focused and concentrating to achieve the best grade that we can. Therefore I think some people need to work more as a team and not just think about themselves because when they don't focus and concentrate; not only does it affect them but it also affects other members in the group!

For our next rehearsal, we are at the Brewhouse doing a technical rehearsal with microphones and show lighting. My target for next week is to step my performance quality up to show that I can be an all round performer and take opportunities like this seriously and challenge myself.
