hello,
This week we mostly sat in class and did theory on our back stage folio. i get what we have to do but yet again i don't. but i have now seen sam's and it is really good, but looks like alot of work, even though most of it already done from class work, but it makes alot more sense now, i think. At the moment i have only done the costume summary part, i shall do makeup tonight. Anyway....moving on...... on Friday this week we worked on makeup and a little on lighting. I was in the first group to try make up things, we had to make people look old by using the technique of lines across the face horizontal-to widen he face, angling in or out at the end of a horizontal line- to make face longer or sorter, verticle- lengthen face. Emma did my face, it looked pretty good i think, and then i did some of Megan's face with the new girl Jackie. we then moved onto lighting,we went up to the top where the sound box was and messed around in there, but i didn't get alot of time in there because i was washiing the makeup from my face, which was really hard may i add. and thats about all for this week!!!! ciao people!!!

Drama-week 3
ok today was Tuesday,
we had alot of theory today on stage concepts and stage set design. The theory part was boring, but i learn't some things i had forgotten about last year, i guess that was good. in our second lesson of the double we had today we played a game called ............(i shall find out i cant remember the name of it at the moment). With this game you had one person doing an activity in the middle of the class, and then the teacher said to freeze, somebody else was to come in and pick up from there last actions and start doing another activity using the the other persons freeze position. this would go on and on and more people would keep being added. The aim of this activity was to see how well us students could use the use of an open sort of stage (forgot the name of it-with no backstage), so we had to not try to block anybody from the audience. i think this activity was fun, i enjoyed it alot, mainly because i knew what i was doing because i had done it before. and because i actually did it right!!!!!yey go me!

drama-week 3
hello again,
mondays lesson this week was quite fun i think. we had to go in groups of three (me,Sam, Emma) and create a caracter and make a costume for somebody to wear using newspaper. We chose to do the costume of Aerial on Emma, because Emma had red hair and was the shortest in our group so we didn't have to use as much newspaper and stuff. this activity was done so that we could get a better concept of creating and building a character.

Drama Blog-week 2
Ok........well today we had a double lesson of drama. we learned about Directorial Concepts. in groups of three, had to make a short skit demonstrating Directorial Concepts. i was with Emma and Sam and we decided to do this through the play, the three little pigs. we used me and Sam as two pigs, one fat one skinny (to be blunt), and Emma was the 'wolf'. we then used our characters and took the theme of bullying from the three little pigs and to produce a short skit for the class. i think we did ok in this skit considering we didn't have much time to practice it because Emma had a blood noise. Our homework for this lesson was to find a picture of somebody in costume and create a character/costume for them. my characters name is Emily Thatcher. She is 13 years old. She is a competitive ballet dancer. Her hobbies include reading, writing poems and to dancing. she is home schooled because of the level of dancing she does leaves her not much time for school work. this leaves her not much time for friends, although she looks like a bright happy kid, inside she sometimes just wants to be like a normal teenager and be able to go shopping and to a regular school and get homework. and this is my character i made up!!!!!!!!

Introduction-first week
hello!!! my name is Bethany George and this is my blog. i have a bird named Tobey. Drama is good.............yes very good. Emma and Sam are sitting next to me at the moment, too my left. Emma has red hair and Sam has brown hair. Emma has red eyes and Sam has hazel\brown eyes with a blue line around the edge. next lesson i have science. the only good thing about science is that Aimee and Katherine are in it. they r funny.
Anyway...moving on.....my first week of drama is over, and i think overall it has been pretty good.I was a little scared walking into the first lesson of drama, and seeing all these new faces for the first time. but everybody seemed really nice and i even made a new friend in our very first lesson. w00t go me. we played a marathon game our first lesson, and i really liked that game, it showed how willing other people were ready to be in front of others. i also liked my group, even though i only know like two of the other people in it. and we won so that was also good! he he. the rest of the week pretty much went the same way. no complaints.....so far.
