Week of 21/11/16

In this week we had our final sessions on developing and planning our Durrington performance before actually performing on the 24th.

In this lesson we went off into our song groups and worked more in depth on our songs for the performance and perfecting them, a decision that was made at the beginning of the session was for people to try dialogue before their sections to see if it made it better or helped as a transition into the next section or from the previous one.

Luckily for us we have dialogue that leads into our song so we chose that as our section and started to incorporate it to work with our choreography for the beginning of the number. The hardest part of our section was the transition between double casts within the number as ours was quite fast so we had to make sure that were in the correct place before the change other wise the choreography didn't work at all.

Through focus and practicing over and over we got it down before we had to show case what we had down to the others. We all performed to each other and then gave one another feedback, with what we felt worked well and was effective and what could maybe be adapted or improved slightly.

We token all the feedback and wrote down in the form of targets to do for next lesson mine were to learn the lines for the beginning of the scene and emily and I also chose to keep rehearsing the song and movement as our other target. Doing this shall allow us to put more characterisation and energy into our performance as will be confident with what we are doing add to the performance as a whole.

In this lesson I felt like I really worked as a part of the team and even took some leadership within my small group for choreography so our section was more structured. Ive learnt that organisation is very key with working in a large group and makes everything run smoother.
