In drama class we learned about how to express ourself using physical skills and vocal skills. I learned that both of these skills are very important when you are trying to show the audiences your emotions and gestures.
In the first week of drama class Ms. Meltzer teached us about different things that can tell what the character is feeling. For example, Posture, Eye Contact, Tension, Facial Expression,  Levels, Actions, Gesture, and Stance.  Our first task was to take two pictures that clearly shows two different emotion by using the skills I said above. On our second task we needed also needed physical skills by taking three pictures that show a story and emotion. This task was hard because we needed to make a story that the audience can know by only seeing the three pictures.
Our third task was to take a video. The video needed to be about the story we made in our second task. We had two classes to film, edit, and to upload it in GoogleClassroom. I think this task was harder than the other two tasks because I needed to clearly show my face to show my facial expressions and also needed to show my emotion with different actions. For example when I was filming, the person that was filming told me that she couldn't see my face because my hair was in the way. so, I tied my hair and it clear to see my emotions in my face.
In todays class we learned about vocal skills. I couldn't join the activities but by seeing the recording I understood that vocal skills are important. In vocal skills we can use different kinds of skills which are Pitch,  Intonations, Pace, Emphasis, Dynamic(volume),  Breath Control, Accent, and Pause. By adjusting some of these skills you are able to change the emotion in what the character is saying. For example, if I was taking in a high pitch with a really fast pace I can tell that maybe this character is in a rush or maybe the character is nervous about something.
Now that I learned about the importance of physical and vocal skills I am able to use it when performing and learn more deeply in these topics.

In drama, this past few weeks, I have learned very important skills to incorporate in any play. In class we learned about physical and vocal skills. First, starting with physical skills
Ms. Meltzer taught us about different  characteristics including: Posture, Eye Contact, Tension, Facial Expression, Levels, Action, Gesture, and  Stance, to use in any play. Each of this characteristics where very important because they defined how the character felt so that the audience can understand what is going on. Our first assignment was to create different pictures representing different emotions. For instance if your emotion was   dissapointed you needed to use a picture to show it and then explain the physical characteristics in the pictures. Now that we new more about our physical characteristics our second assigment was to create photos of a story that we created. This photos needed to e very clear to understand so that the audience the audience could understand the story even though it was only a couple of pictures. Now that we had learned more about physical characteristics we could finally bring our story to life. We made a short film of our story bringing our pictures to life! This was such a fun activity but it was also very hard because we could use our voices meaning that we really had to use the physical skills that we had learn so the story could be clear to the audience.
In the other hand, this class we are staring to learn another very important piece in drama, vocal skills. This is also a very important part in a play because it makes it easier to understand the story and the plot and also the characters emotions.  The different vocal skills are: Pitch, Intonation, Pace, Emphasis, Dynamics (volume ), Breath Control, Accent, and Pause. We haven't done assignments yet on this, but, I am very to learn a lot and have a lot of fun.
I know that now that I know all of this skills I am going to be able to learn a lot of new things!

I have learned many things in Drama these past 2 weeks. I have learned how to use my expressions and actions without using my voice to explain a situation, it was challenging but I tried my best and I think I did a pretty good job. I also learned about the requirements of using your voice for acting, this is important since the voice explains a really big part of the scene, if you are using a neutral tone of voice on a line that is supposed to be exciting the audience is going to think you are being sarcastic. I also learned about body language, body language can mislead a person on to thinking something that is not true as if I am supposed to be bored but I am pitted up straight, the audience are going to be confused. In conclusion I have learned the importance of vocal skills and how to use them on the proper way,  I should match my voice to my actions, mood, setting and character. I also learned about the importance of the body skills, they are important because they can confuse the audience. In order to create the ideal character I should connect both body skills and voice skills. I am excited to getting to know all of you and learning more about drama!

I have learned about subtexts, Subtexts is the underlying message being conveyed by a piece of dialogue. Some call it the “lines between the lines” or “the unsaid meaning.” People use it because it adds an extra layer of complexity.

Something that I learned from the physical skills it's that I helps you express the emotions that your character it's feeling and it help the audience understand the story better.

Something that I learned from vocal skills it's that I shows a lot of emotion into your character and help the audience understand the feelings of the character, helps them now if they are sick or where they are from because of the accent and stuff.
