In this performance my partner and I was tasked to create a 15 movements performance piece to understand and practise the technique of physical theatre while seating down.
C haracter -  My Character is struggling to maintain a relationship because it is very toxic. He cares a lot for the girl but he knows that sooner or later he needs to end it because it’s affecting The character.

What Went Well

Facial expression - I used my facial expressions to tell the storyline and what my character was feeling in that moment. My intention was to show the audience that I was uncomfortable but also decisive. Uncomfortable for the reason  of the situation I was in ( toxic relationship). Indecisive because I am still deciding whether i should end things or work it out.

Timing and movements - The pace  is the performance was fast and the movements were just objectives and I thought behind it. Wide range of movements timing , the movements sometimes were slow and fast. We also used delicacy and toughness to the performance.

EBI
we had more time to rehearse and develop the movements.

We had more time to think about the storyline

Weekly reflections week 2

On the week 2 of rehearsals my group decided to do many run through of the scenes we created and developed the transitions from scene to scene. On monday my group decided to do a run through the scenes we already created to make sure everyone knew their lines and was confident to perform the scenes. On mondays rehearsals my group decided to polish the fight scene and the bed room scene. We polished the fight scene turning it into a dance off between Megatron and the BFG. In the bedroom scene we decided to delete the transition movements which were the giants standing in a line and doing movements at the same pace and accurately. On tuesday my group set a target which were to find out what scenes comes after and before the fight scene. In this rehearsal we created the scene when Megatron confronted Ovo and Blood Blotter because they did not find sophie. The skills we used to created this scene wad status , levels and chorus. Status and level because in this scene megatron over powers the giants, we used levels when megatron got really angry at them so they are so scared of her that they fell on the floor. On wednesday we polished and blocked this scene and practised the jungle scene where sophie tries to survive in the jungle with tigers and giants trying to eat her. In this scene I used my characterisation skill to play a animal so I changed my body language into all fours and made evil facial expressions. On thursday my group didn’t do much because some people was going through things and wasn’t giving 100% in which made the whole group not many things and some people missed lessons.

The feedback I received in this week was to be careful with the accent when I’m trying to pronounce words and keep my body language consistent throughout the performance.

Week 3 rehearsals was really tough since my group was dealing with people not giving 100% and the miscommunication between each other. On monday we did not do much since we were put into a small room to rehearse and in the second lesson we didn’t have two of our team members so to do the scenes was really challenging. However, majority of the people in my group bought their costumes and me as a costume designer checked them to see if they were appropriate for the performance. Two of my cast mates purchased the same onesie so we decided to get another onesie for one of the people who had the same onesie. On tuesday helen made my group do a run through but it was awful there was people missing and the energy level was really down. The feedback i received was to make my facial expressions more exaggerated. The other days it consisted in challenges but on wednesday we had our tech run through and it was really good and my group finally spoke to each other and overcame the obstacles that we were facing. On thursday we finished the script and created the last scene.
