finally talking

I'm so glad that were finally getting to talk now!!! i think that it is going to be harder but I'm glad that we an incorporate it and be able to actually do "scene type" activities.  I feel that the activity we did today was harder than i thought it was going to be.  Once i got out there i wasn't sure what the setting was and there was defiantly some awkwardness.  

Talkin

I think that talking is going to be fun. It might also be hilarious as well as fun. I think that we should definitely consider all of the details that we were paying attention to when we were not talking and that will make our acting even better. I think that the talking might be an interesting change since I haven't gotten a shot at it yet. I think that it might be kind of different in that we have been acting without words for so long. One main thing about that is maybe you don't have to talk you only have to respond to other around you so your words might just flow out.

Getting Chatty

I actually think that adding talking will be a good thing. We just keep moving forward. I suppose that the hardest thing will be to remember all of the little things we were paying attention to before we started talking and to incorporate them. I know that will be hard for me anyway. Also, not all acting involves talking, I think. Lastly, I share the pain that the Sox won.

Talking

Yeah, I am pretty sure that I would rather not have to talk just because I'm sure I'll say something not even paying attention that will either be completely off topic or not going to help the scenario. Either way though, I think it will be a fun addition to the class because now there is another thing to possibly focus on and will take our attention away from beign nervous or something. It might also be good because acting does involve speaking.

And I stayed up last night watching the Red Sox game hoping the Angels would come back... what a disappointment.

new challenge, talking

Talking for the first time added a little spice to life in the class; I enjoy reacting to others actions. I feel I work real well thinking on the whim, rather than planning what I am going to do. So I believe this section of class will either confirm or deny my assumption of how I operate thinking or reacting on my feet. I thought for the first group we did real well, especially working on an improv play for the first time together with verbal content. I believe everyone will benefit tremendously during this exercise, I like playing frog detective to start class also, because it gets the mind ready for details quicker, good call, peace.

finaly talking

I'm really excited about being able to talk in class but at the same time I'm also really nervous. When Fabio said that most of acting is improv I got pretty nervous because I'm not necessarily the quickest thinker on my feet...I feel like I'm going to be fumbling around, looking for words to say. Watching the first group go in class though, the talking aspect seemed to come pretty naturally and it made the scene a little more interesting but also less believable. I'm very interested to see how much the class changes now that we are allowed to talk.
