Inn todays lesson we performed our 6 hour project piece 'Terrorist or freedom fighter?' - I feel it went very well, and a lot better than we thought (this could be because prior to the performance, we changed a couple bits to fill in the gaps within the movement piece and made the transitions smoother within the movement piece). I think the addition of 9/11 news reports on projection at the start in the dark, really helped set the scene for the audience and definitely portrayed how terrorists are shown/exposed by the media. The movement piece went very smoothly as like I said we improved and worked on our transitions and added a bit more character to us in the piece so that we don't just look like people in a movement moving from one movement to the next. This definitely helped make the piece more believable and perhaps more enjoyable and easier to watch.
In the second part of the lesson, we split ourselves into 3 groups, and we spoke about generally what makes a good performer. We said that a good performer needs to be confident and believe in themselves in order to give a good performance, have a good use and mix of voices tones and know when and to use different tones, controlled movement, ability to take criticism, ability to take direction, and versatility.
