Dialogue Again

What do you think is the most important thing you need to work on for this scene? Why? And how are you going to work on it?

I’ve noticed as I continue acting that I need to provide more and more precise with myself. I sometimes did cold reading over break and thought to myself that I look pretty decent yet whenever I act, whether it be with myself or with another, I can’t look at myself to see if I can make any adjustments to my acting.

As of lately, I tended to see my slight mistakes from time to time, which to others may look normal but to me, I feel as if the acting itself is not correct. I used to rely on watching other’s actions, whether it be students in our classes or famous actors on the screen, I tend to copy then instead of trying to make my own creative self.

I’ve noticed this when I did my previous dialogue, where there were I never watched another do the dialogue.

I would like to be an actor who can do a large amount of roles instead of a single character. This time around, I will practice

and hone each movement in my scene while adding my own spin if possible.

If I were to even attempt this, my partner, Ryan, will have to be very very patient with me. Even if he doesn’t have enough time, I’ll make sure to practice on my own time. I’ll attempt to make Ryan act with me up to the point where he himself might quit acting or just not act with me due to large amounts of fatigue and hunger. (I’m joking, I do sincerely care for the health of Ryan).

I’ve noticed that I did get into a decent school for acting, I might be considered one of the less experienced actors. This will probably make me struggle in the beginning when I do attend the school. So as of recently, I thought that I needed to step it up a notch from what I was doing recently and try much harder if I want to keep up with everyone else.

But of course, before any of this, I do have to have fun acting. There’s no real point in doing this if I don’t enjoy myself anyways.

Once On This Island Assignment

  As a crew member of Once on this Island, I do understand the show better than most others. During my experience as a crew member, I was quite busy painting and planning most of the wall. Even with the help of others, it still took a quite a long time to do so. I'm just glad that the wall did look quite good when we finally did finish. 

  As for the show itself, I was in charge of moving most of the props during the show, with the role of helping and making sure menial tasks were done. The show, I thought, was really amazing and I thought to myself, "I wish I was that good of a singer." Everyone was just amazing and it was much more amazing when you see how hard everyone had worked to make it this far. 

  To be honest, I can't say I had a song I personally disliked, and if I had to pick some of my favorites, it would have to be Ryan's "Some Girls" or Abby's "Come with me Little Girl." The way that Ryan sang "Some Girls" is quite perfect and Abby's song, specifically towards the end of the song where she sand extremely high, was my favorite. 

  I can't even begin to say how talented everyone was, it just feels as if no one can make the show sound good by themselves. It was everyone's part which made the show a success and it wouldnt be complete without everyone's cooperation.
