# data[].attributes.body
I believe the play was performed in a hippodrome theater. A large hippodrome, to be precise. It has a central light that is used to highlight the actor or actors on the scene. It also has a curtain that is used to hide unnecessary scenes from the audience, though the curtain was not visible due to the stage's dark setup. Another reason it was a hippodrome was the position of the recorder, which appears to be surrounded by concentric tiered seating that separated the audience from the stage.

Les Misérables is a modern play, it was an epic, grand and uplifting,it packs an emotional wallop that has thrilled audiences all over the world.The stage space is far from the other audience's seat since it is perform at the hippodrome's theater so it was difficult for the audience to recognize the performers.

Shannon  And Weaver Model of Communication
It is known as the “mother of all models” because of its wide popularity. The model is also known as ‘information theory’ or the ‘Shannon theory’ because Claude Shannon was the main person who developed the theory. also a mathematical theory of communication that argues that human communication can be broken down into 6 key concepts: sender, encoder, channel, noise, decoder, and receiver.

ROLES/ FUNCTIONS OF BERLO'S MODEL OF COMMUNICATION

# data[].attributes.body
1.      SOURCE/ SENDER

Element's Role/Function

Sender
-Sender is the information source.
The sender is the person who makes the message, and who chooses the channel, on which the sender wants to convey the message.
Encoder
-The encoder is the Transmitter that converts the message into signals. It can also be referred to as the machine directly, which is used to convert the message into signals.
Channel
- A means to convey information from the sender to the receiver.
Noise
-Noise is something that affects the communication flow between the sender and the receiver.
Decoder
- It is the process of receiving,  interpreting, and understanding an encoded message.
Receiver
-The receiver is to whom the message is directed.  The receiver is the listener, observer, and reader.

# data[].attributes.body
ELEMENTS:
INFORMATION SOURCE - which produces a message.
TRANSMITTER- which encodes the message into signals.
CHANNEL - to which signals are adapted for transmission.
RECEIVER - which decodes (reconstructs) the message from the signal.
DESTINATION - where the message arrives.

Aristotle’s Model of Communication is the first model of communication and is considered simple and straightforward. In here, the speaker is the main figure in communication. This person is fully responsible for all communication.  In this model, the speaker gives the speech whereas the target audience is passively influenced and should be easily stimulated using versatile qualities and way of express, that is why aside from the content of the speech, she/he should adopt the right body language, as well as ensuring right eye contact and voice variations. In order to lure the audience, blank expressions, confused looks, and tedious speech must be avoided at all times.

-Perla Bagni

S -Sender
Sender is the source of the message or the person who originates the message. The person or source sends the message to the receiver.

M-Message
A message is the substance that is being sent by the sender to the receiver. It might be in the form of voice, audio, text, video or other media

C-Channel
Channel is the medium used to send the message. In mass communication and other forms of communication, technical machines might be used as a channel like telephone, internet, etc. But in general communication, the five senses of a human being is the channel for the communication flow and it affects the effectiveness of the channel.

R- Receiver
Receiver is the person who gets the message sent in the process. This is also called as decoding.

David Berlo set the  ‘Berlo Model of Communication’ in the 1960’s . This model is also known as the SMCR model of communication. The acronym SMCR stand for Sender, Message, Channel, and Receiver.

Three Elements of Aristotle’s Model of Communication
a.  Ethos-Ethos is the first most important quality that should be present in a good speaker. If he takes the credibility of his words and speech, the speech would automatically be liked and acknowledged by the audience.
b. Pathos- Pathos means feeling connected. If a speaker is giving a speech and the audience feels emotional bonding with the speech, they’ll automatically be mesmerized by it. This sort of emotional bonding with the speaker would result in high engagement from the audience.
c. Logos- Logos means logic. The speech needs to be engaging as well as have some logic behind it. If the content is irrelevant and has no association with the occasion and the audience, the speech won’t be appreciated and liked. There has to proper information backed by adequate logic and sense. Any persuasion can only work if it has some relevance and specificity.

Basic Concepts
1. Speakers play an important role in public Speaking
2. The speaker must prepare his speech
3. Analysis audience needs before he enters into stage
4. His word should influence in audience mind and persuade their thoughts toward him.

Speaker
-a person who speaks.

- the speaker is the main figure in communication. This person is fully responsible for all communication. In this model of communication, it is important that the speaker selects his words carefully. He must analyze his audience and prepare his speech accordingly.

Speech
-the expression of or the ability to express thoughts and feelings by articulate sounds.

- The speaker’s role to deliver a speech is considered as the first element of the 5 primary elements.

Occasion
- Unlike much written communication, a public speaking situation occurs at a specific time and place. With regard to time, the speech can be affected by events that have very recently occurred by the time of day and by the fact that it comes after or before other speeches.

- Aristotle advises speakers to build speech for different audience on different time (occasion) and for different effects.

Audience
-the assembled spectators or listeners at a public event, such as a play, movie, concert, or memeeting

Effect
- A change which is a result or consequence of an action or other cause.

The place was enough for the execution of the actions by the actors. It was not big and not too small for them to perform and the director was wise, as well as the set-up was  great because when only few performers were in the current scene, some spaces were not seen and when there’s a time where almost their numbers exceeded for 30 performers, the stage was able to cater them and that all can act comfortably with their characters. It affects their production in a good way because it makes an audience focus only on the performers, just for example, in the first picture given, the audience can focus directly on the actor because amidst of other spaces in the video, the light highlighted her, making an audience to really see and watch her. And in the second picture, all were visible. Thus, the space is greatly design for their play to be performed well and in a manner where an audience can leave the area contended on what they watched.

1. Where the actors beleivable, given the requirements of the play? If they were beleivable, how did they seem to accomplish this? If they weren't beleivable, what occured to impair or destroy beleivability.

The cast's selection is an important part of the play's success, as is the perfect emission of every detail that integrates this show.
The ensemble cast is also extremely talented, and due to their acting and blasting all through the show, they are compellingly one of the most talented productions I have ever seen. The amount of energy poured into each small action and statement, most of which goes unnoticed by many, demonstrates that these actors go above and beyond in their performances.
The cast performs with a mastery of language and rhtym, keeping every scene rigid, tense, and perfectly timed, with all members appearing to be possessed with bionic airways, which cover many extended notes of the musical and emotional melodies.
All of the actors were undeniably convincing, but Fantine Greenland stood out throughout the play. Frantine not only has the vocal ability to play the part, but she is also an excellent actress. I could tell she was on the verge of tears in her rendition of "on my own."
Another particularly touching and convincing scene was the one between her and Wilkins. It happened  as she reaches out to kiss him only to fall short as she passed away. All of the actors use spoken singing to emphasize their emotions, resulting in a truly authentic performance.

In a nutshell, Les Miserables is a great epic with a great narrative proposal, some heartbreaking interpretations, and an incredible interpretative power of all the artists.

2. Identify the performers you considered most successful. Citing specifics from the production, note what they did well: particular gestures, lines, or moments. Try to describe each performer so as to give the reader a clear image. For example, how did the performer's voice sound? How did he or she move? How did he or she interpret the role?

In Les Miserables's performance, it went successful. Regarding the sounds, the orchestra performs operatic passages with incredible force reflecting feelings through voices overloaded with sorrow, joy, sadness, and cries of freedom. The cast acts with a mastery of language and rhythm, keeping every scene taut and tense, and perfectly timed, where all the members seem to be endowed with bionic lungs, which cover many extended notes of the musical and emotive crescendos of the singers.

It was difficult at first  to guess the time set up because the stage was too dark. And the recording was not that clear. Kudos  for their costumes, make-up, and props because they helped me understand and immerse myself in the time setting of the play although there were lines that are unclear.  But for others who are not familiar  with the history background of the play the information might not be clear for them.

Since the scene is mostly dark, some colors were not emphasized but the color blue slightly dominated the area because it gives a soothing and cool aura. This color gives a night vibe wherein characters can display their emotions through this color. Blue together with the dark color gives an impression of a deep emotion.

# data[].attributes.body
At first the setting was unrecognizable because it was very dim wherein I can only see the actors or presenters but as I continue watching the play, I have observed that the setting was a specific place for the play because of their clothing and props wherein I can see that this happened in Paris around 1860’s.

6. Were there symbolic elements in the scenery? If so what were they? how did they relate to play?

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, there are symbolic elements in the scenery, such as the red flag. Where it represents revolution or war. In politics it is associated with socialism. The children like Cossette, that is the best example of hopefulness as she represents the rise from abuse and darkness. Also, in purity and goodness.

# data[].attributes.body
3. If there were performers you did not like, identify them and explain why you did not like them. Give concrete examples to explain why their performances were less successful.

I am not impressed with the following scenes played by minor characters:

# data[].attributes.attachment_caption

In my opinion, the prospective customer’s irritation by telling his lies is not convincing. Also, the actor has unnecessary or involuntary movements which cause distraction during the conversation between Fantine and Javert.

# data[].attributes.attachment_caption

# data[].attributes.body
In my opinion, Fauchelevant’s performance while he is lying beneath the overturned cart does not show justice for the pain or struggles. The sudden change in his reactions or body placement is inconsistent.

# data[].attributes.body
4. Acting is more than just a collection of individual performances. The entire company needs to work as a unit (this is sometimes called an ensemble): each actor must not only perform his or her own role but also support the other performers. Discuss how the performers related or failed to relate to one another. Did they listen to each other and respond? Did any actor seem to be "showing off' and ignoring the others?

Throughout the play, the actors were able to do their solo parts as well as they were able to support their co-actors. The connection can be seen with them, their timings were great and that they really practiced well if when to perform their parts. They had respected the time of other actors, as seen in their play that one at a time, they talked, sang and acted, listened to others while they had waited for their parts and even showed encouragement on their faces as they tend to look on who will perform next.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Did all the elements of the production seem to be unified and to fit together seamlessly? How was this reflected, in particular, in the visual elements? (the scenery, costumes, and lighting.?)

Each elements of the play were flawlessly executed, from the playwright's work until the final product which is this art work. The lighting was specially emphasized because the characters became the center of attention which is a need in this stage performance. The props, designs and the costume were made well and was very realistic as it portrays each character. The spacing and the number of the characters are very efficient because it did not consume too much and too less in executing this stage play.  All in all, the play fit together and was very realistic.

# data[].attributes.body
How did the director move the actors  around the stage? Were there any moments when you felt such movement was particularly effective or ineffective? Were entrances exits smooth?

In my own observation the director moves the actors for a particular effect. I was really impressed by how the director only focuses the lights on the actor or presenter where in the entrances and exits cannot be seen, for example when Valjean have stolen the utensils and tried to run away, the soldiers already blocked him. I did not see where the soldiers came from but that was really unpredictable. I have observed that entrances and exits were really smooth, I have also observed that they have different entrances and exits and that is really good so that the actors and presenters do not overcrowd in one place.

# data[].attributes.body
3. Did the pace or rhythm of the production seem right? did it drag or move swiftly? did one scene follow another quickly, or were there long pauses or interruptions?

The rhythm of the whole production was smoothly presented. The beats, from both long and short notes and different techniques. They minimize having long pauses and interruptions. And I have noticed that they made sure that the scene flows continuously and there is always an actor to be on the stage for the next scene. That is good decision-making for the director to keep the audience intact and that scenes flow smoothly and quickly.
