Level 2 performing arts - week 1 🎬

Week 1

I confirm that the attached portfolio is all my own work and does not include any work completed by anyone other than myself
Induction week 

The main reason that i chose this course is because acting and performing arts is something that i have wanted to do ever since i was 9 years old and to be able to learn all of the different movements, all of the different abilities and be able to perform as a character that is not just your average self because its somebody that is not myself for once. 

The things that i am looking forward to about this course is being able to play loads of different characters and be able to feel confident about acting for once because acting is something that i have always wanted to do but i have never had the proper confidence to do it. But now that i have started college i have been able to slowly find those pieces of confidence to help me become the person that i want and always have wanted to be.

Some of the actors that inspire me is Nev Campbell who starred in the 1996 movie Scream, Jamie lee Curtis who starred in the Halloween movies and Tim curry who is famous for the Rocky horror pictures in 1975 and playing Penny wise the clown in the 1990 movie IT.

Over my first week in college week has been a good experience because i have learned some of the movements and made some new friends also and been able to find that bit of confidence.

Level 2 Performing arts - Week 26🎬

Tuesday 26th March We started to film our news reports with Abbie and Kane where we used the Film and TV equipment and also used a teleprompter that was used behind the camera so that when we recorded our news report, we could see the words behind the camera and we didn't have to read it all off paper. We tried to make sure that we had all the lighting correct when filming this news report and also using microphones so that we could be heard clearly when we were being recorded.  Wednesday 27th March  We started off by doing some warm ups with Kellie and the Level 3 students and also some games so that we could practice our acting skills. We then started to look at what we wanted to do for our futures and what kind of preparations we needed for what course we want to do next. For example Level 3 performing arts would need a monologue where we had to pick one and try to memorise it and do a practice audition whilst saying the lines. For example my monologue was about a poem call...

Level 2 performing arts - week 2 🎬

This week I have learned the movements and lyrics for ‘Revolting children’ from Matilda the musical and also practised the show case rehearsal that I am doing which includes ‘Fatal Beating’ which is a sketch by Rowan Atkinson and ‘Say my name’ from Beetle juice the musical. A few other things that I have learned this week is where about things are in college such as the cafeteria, the classrooms and the toilets so that I know where everything is. The final thing that I have learned this week is that we’re only a few weeks into college so you don’t have to be good at everything straight away and nothing has to be perfect just yet.

Level 2 Performing arts - week 32🎬

Tuesday 21st May  We started to do a run through of our end of year show in the theatre just so we know what it will be like when we do it in there on the actual night. it also gives us the chance to make that we know our lines completely and that we have each prop and costume for our characters including there costumes that they wear in the flashbacks and also what they wear to this years comic con. We also made sure that when we change into a different scene, we make sure that the shifts are done quickly and quietly so that the audience don't have to wait in the dark. We needed to make sure that one each person had a part when we go to a new scene so that they all have a part when moving to a new scene. Wednesday 22nd May We started to get all of our props and pieces of furniture together for our end of year performance and started to paint them in order for them to match the scenery that will be used in the show along with some pictures of the internet that we be projected onto ...
