Level 2 Performing arts - week 27 🎬

 

Tuesday 16th April

We started to write down the costume list, budget list and plan out the flashback scenes for our end of year performance and how much we could use from our the money that we raised from our last performance ‘The girl without hands’  so that we know how much we needed for the props when we get them for our performance.



We also came up with some more ideas for the script and main parts like ‘Larry winning the competition, the dinner scene here Larry is murdered and also the police investigation scene. We needed to get certain props such as tables, chairs and the stage lights for the blackout scene.

Wednesday 17th April

We started to look through of what we already had for our planned script for our end of year show 'Beyond the bloodstained curtain' to see if there was anything that needed to be included and that we had a reason and motive for each of the characters towards the victim. We also started to plan out more scenes such as the fight scene with all of the characters and the victim and also the reveal of the murderer.

We also came up with the idea to ask the people in the audience if they have any questions and see what their exposition (explaining an idea or theory) to see what their thought were on who they think the murderer is.

Thursday 18th April 

In our session with Tom we looked at the Green issues and what we could do to improve the climate change in our world.

We also set some smart targets for ourselves on what we wanted for our end of year performances and also what we wanted to archive for the end of the year and our targets such as our measurable and achievable targets.

Friday 19th April

We finally managed to finish the script by the end of our lesson by adding the final scenes such as 'The identity of the killer revealed' and also 'The plot twist right at the end'. There was still some parts that needed to be edited but overall it has become an excellent piece with all of our ideas linked together

We also started to come up with ideas for our statements when our characters are interviewed by the detective. We needed to have statements such as 'Where we were at the time of the murder, Who we were with and also our responses and thought to the victim being dead.

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 ...
