Devising: Day 29

Devising: Day 29

Today, we spent the first lesson perfecting all four of our scripts, looking at previous annotations and correcting them on the computer. We also stayed yesterday evening to set all of our scripted scenes and look at how we wanted to perform them, looking specifically at playing our characters properly and effectively. So, for me, I focused on making my speech jittery and quick, whilst wing conscious to make sure my diction was still as good as it needed to be for the audience to be able to understand what I would be saying. I made sure I was restless in my chair and played close attention to the lines the others were saying, which ultimately led to us being able to correct the parts we wanted as we had a better idea of how we wanted the events to unfold.

Once the scripts were corrected we went onto re setting our new contemporary pieced based around control. As we forgot what we set last time, we found it difficult to remember what we needed to do. Of course, we could remember certain bits but not the whole piece. To add some more content to the piece we devised a small section of chairography. In this part, we hid behind the chairs whenever the teacher would look to the front and edge in closer. Freezing whenever he turned around.
