toozedaes klash

As always, I liked the scenes today. I am glad that as a class we are generally comfortable doing weird extreme things just to make our scenes good. I like being able to laugh in class. I am anxious to see all of the final scenes because people are changing things every time that they practice in class. I also think its kinda cool how even though other groups have the same words the scenes are incredibly different because of the background story. I like that we could basically make up any relationship that we wanted and run with it. I don't really know if it would be easier or harder if we had been given our character bio.

Almost Done :)

I cant believe that we only have one more class of acting before we perform our skits. This class has been very entertaining, but I have also learned a lot. I did not know anything about acting before taking this class. Now as I am filling out all of these papers, I realized actors have to think about many different things, other than knowing their lines. I have come to realize how important knowing the action for each line is. I am definitely ready to see everyone do their skits with all of their props and everything!
I also enjoy watching other people do their skits. I think it's fun to see everyone's imagination. I also like how groups with the same lines do different things with them. Some groups do similar things like with Ryan and I and Paige and Renee. We both are doing an office setting, but it is still slightly different. Then you have the groups of Juan/Brittany and Ted/Claire that had two completely different ideas with their lines. So I'm excited to see the last few practice scenes and then the final skits next week.

Nice

I have also enjoyed watching everyones skits. I think it is very interesting to see people finally acting with lines and props after having them in class not using words or props. I think everyone is doing a great job and i really enjoy watching everyone. I hope that everyone is getting everything together and everything is coming along as well as mine is. Unlike Ryan I am not happy that it is snowing I want it to stop immediately!!!! I hope everyone had a great thanksgiving and see you in class.

Mo Skits

So, we are doing more skits this week. That is good, I suppose, I hope they keep getting good because I like watching them as much as everyone else does. I am also happy that it is snowing again, and I hope everyone had a deece thanksgiving.

Acting Class

I have enjoyed watching everyone final skits. I feel like we are watching clips of movies when we do them in them class. By doing these in class i know it has helped my group a great deal with figuring out action words and how our body language should look. Also I really liked the threesome game. It is funny to see what random things come to peoples head. I think for our last class we should play a mixture of the three "warm-up" exercises we have done all semester because they have all be really fun.

Skits...Threesome...

I am really enjoying everyone's skits! I think everyone is doing a great job and it is really enjoyable to watch how everyone develops their skits. I am also enjoying this new game dubbed "threesome" though it is more interesting when we have everyone there. It is interesting to see what people come up with and a good way to get you thinking quick on your toes. I do miss whizbang though!! I hope we get to play it again before the class ends!

Thanksgiving Class

The class before Thanksgiving was pretty laid back. Since we were missing some people, we had to have other groups go that were not scheduled too. The threesome game was like always... no where near as much fun as frog detective or whizbang. I am sure tomorrow we will do the same things we have been working on for our final exam/project. Hopefully more people show up tomorrow though, it was pretty boring missing a third of the class.
