What ways worked for you?
1.Reading my lines with on scrip.
2. Working with others (Polly, Mum, Vilma, Diana and Steve)
3. Saying the lines out loud.
4. Physical movements with lines. 

5. Working by myself.

What ways did not work for you?
Ghosting because I will always look when I should not be looking.

Do you think some strategies might work better at different points in the memorisation process? 
Yes some of them did and some did not. Reading and saying the lines out loud did work but ghosting did not work because I would look when I should not be looking. Ghosting would have worked better if someone would not have said the words in my ear, I  would not have tried to look.

2. The reason why I chose upside down piano was because they was a part in part 3 that Gregor said that he was going send his sister Greta to play at conservator where she can play her vanillin.

3. The reason why I chose the picture with Dance? Because we all do stool ballet in the start of parts 

4. The reason why I chose the bugs is because we all change as inveal bugs in the beginning of the play and then we all be one huge bug.

5. The reason why I chose the tower with the small holes made me feel that the family made Gregor low or less then or small like the holes. 

What ways worked for you?
The highlighted strategies and saying my lines out loud. Because 
I was able to remember a lot more .

What ways did not work for you?
Different action because that strategie did not help.  

Do you think some strategies might work better at different points in the memorisation process Strategies that worked were... the highlighted strategy helped you remember the whole sentence. Also, thinking of different actions helped me remember which lines went first. That helped so I did not get my lines muddled up. 


Add final feelings/thoughts from you final rehearsal before the exam.
My feeling were I was worried because I was not sure if I remembered all of my lines. Did I do well but I think I did because when we received the call on line we were told we did really well. But I only missed one line. But it went okay. 

Working from the points created during your reflective discussions: 

•What have you learnt about the practitioners?

•How did you feel about the structure of the lessons? 

(Group discussions, researching, presenting and debating)

•Why do you feel this way?

•How could this have been improved?

•Final thoughts and feelings in general?

To help you to do this, think about the following: ​

My three key visions are:

1. Getting an education such as passing with a distinction in the Performing Arts class.
2. Getting a job in acting, movies and trying to make a difference in the world. 
3. Getting a house and a car. 
4. Putting God first.

If I don't get an education and pass my course, then I won't be able to get a job or the things I want to achieve. To get a job is really important because I want to prove that I can have a career and achieve my goals. Getting a house and a car is one of my dreams because I used to imagine living in a big house with a pool. Putting God first is important for me to always put Him first. 

I. Trying to read my bible and pray every day. 
2. Will aim to work hard ever day and pass my course.
3. Apply for movies that I could act in.
4. Look for houses and cars that I would be able to afford.

As a theatrical practitioner, he made careful notes and evaluated his work, as a habit that he followed from the first steps in his career. Later, he write major texts on the art of performance:

My Life in Art

An Actor Prepares

Building a Character

Creating a Role

Principle 2: Objectives
The context for the character can help define their objective, as it would help change how they would respond to certain characters and events. This can help the actor lead to their Super Objective.

Naturalism is often used to refer to the same things but it can also mean the belief that a human. It is often used to refer to the same things, but it can also mean the belief that a human character is formed by what they’ve inherited from their family and environment.
Stanislavski believed that it's better for actors to be true to their feelings, as it can enhance their performances.

Subtext can hold the character, meaning the subtle character traits they do, e.g. touching their ear when they lie. They can also lead to their objective.
As people, we're built up with behaviour. If there's something happening, there's a specific way people would react. We are trained to react in a certain way. This links to the theory of behaviourism.
Behaviorism emphasizes the role of environmental factors in influencing behavior, to the near exclusion of innate or inherited factors. This amounts essentially to a focus on learning.

We learn new behavior through classical or operant conditioning (known as 'learning theory').

Therefore, when their born, our mind is 'tabula rasa' (a blank slate).

Example: the idea of a dog treated in an abusive manner. It is known that the dog wouldn't necessarily react to other people in a polite manner.

Principle 3: Given Circumstances
The actors should make an initial examination of the text, so they can gather information about the characters.

Each actor plays a character who has been given different examples of Circumstances:
Situations
Relationships
History
Physical Characteristics
Time
Place

Not only that, they also get some questions, based on the 5 W's (who, what, where, how, why):
What time is it?
Where am I?
What is it I want?
What are the given circumstances?
How do I get what I want?
What is happening?

The given circumstances provide information to the characters depth (that makes it easier for the performer to make creative decisions - how they REACT to the given circumstances).

People can get caught in LOOPS of BEHAVIOUR - where the things that work for them in life, as they tend to repeat, however, if things that do not work for them, they tend to avoid/not repeat.  Sometimes, this is confusing though. People repeat things that get punished - this would imply they should avoid it, but it still gets them attention (which is perhaps lead the characters to get what they want).

 And I did find the bug side easy because the bug was me being myself on the floor putting on different and difficult positions.

The reason why I said the bug side of Gregor because I have a disability called Cerebral Palsy that those effects my body like my left hand, the way I walk, the way  I talk, and the way I move my body.  

Gregor being normal

Please watch both video below.

I use the floor a lot in this video because it was comfortable and where I put myself in difficult positions. 

Explanation of how I got in the position of the bug.

1. I bent in different positions until I felt comfortable. First position I bent my head but it was  uncomfortable and I did not like that because I could not move.   

2. My second position I had to find a way of how to move, so I bent my arm into my legs, I tried to move but because I was on my bottom I could move a little bit. 

3. My third position was bending both arms and legs and I could move. It felt comfortable for a while then my arms started to cramp.

4. My fourth position I twisted my legs in front of my body and then I started to move on the floor and that was comfortable. I did not feel so much pain.
