In today's lesson we went over tale 5 and tightened it up, also we ran some of the tales in order, making some changes along the way.

Set yourself three rehearsal targets:

1. Memorise my Blocking for next lesson

2. Push my physical acting skills

3. Work on my facial expression to show more emotion.

Reflect on the targets set:  Have they been achieved? How?           

1. I am on my way to achieving this target, as I know most of the blocking for the tales, but I need to be more confident in some of them to make my moves more clean. I will achieve the target by going over my notes, and marking them out at home.


2. I achieved this target because I feel I pushed my physical skills when, during tale 5, we pretend to be wild animals, and in tale 7 when we pretend to be snakes. By doing this I feel I made my performance more captivating and intense as I was committed, therefore, the audience believed in the movements and felt more involved in the scene.


3. I feel I achieved this target as I used  facial expressions well to show how my character was feeling in each tale. I think this is important because in the majority of the tales I have lines at random. Therefore it is important to use facial expression, to stay in character, and to help the audience to understand how my character is feeling.
