clash of the concerts - Unit 4

Unit 4- Clash of the concerts

Monday 7th November

In Becca's production lesson we completed a worksheet about the set up for Britney Spears concert in Las Vegas which was meant for Tuesday lessons but the internet wasn't working, next lesson we went onto blog. Drama was next. for the warm up we each did a small dance to the music, three groups had been given three titles, my group who included Bruno, Pedro and Nerrisa was given "Why cant I do that" where we based the play in a gym and Pedro is the manager and Bruno is a personal trainer and so Nerissa and myself go to that certain gym but we get told we cant stay as we are both female which we ignore and still enter, the boys decide to give us three challenges to do in the gym and if we pass every single one of them and if we don't we leave, the first challenge is on a running machine which we complete, the second one is a plank which gets the boys annoyed as we pass that one as well and finally they give us a challenge that they couldn't even complete including a weight, we both complete the tasks meaning that our characters could stay in the gym and we end the piece with Pedro being frustrated and saying "Why can't I do that".

 

Tuesday 15th November

We began our Drama lesson with a warm up which helps us to focus throughout the rest of the lesson and there, as well as helps our voice to become louder as well as we are developing our improve skills by also taking risks. We also started with a improve game called "This is not a book" where we used a glasses case instead of a book to portray any object or situation, I used the glasses case a phone where I was on the "phone" saying to my mum how I wanted MAC makeup that instant, I went up a second time portraying the case as a jewellery case opening up the case to find a beautiful necklace, for the third time I portrayed the opened case as a compact mirror where I was doing the finishing touches of my makeup. For our main exercise we used a script and as the script ended in ..... we had to carry on the scene from there, my partner Mya and I did a scene where we see two girls both sister and one of them finds out how her mum is in hospital in a coma and that her dad has left her family to marry someone else. For Mandy's lesson, my drama group and I went to the gym to continue on filming for our drama piece, we then had some free time before beccas lesson where we got a laptop and continued on our blogs.

In beccas lesson we began to start making posters to advertise our celebrities for our assesment for 'Clash of the Concerts', my group decided to pick Jennifer Lopez and this was what we started with.
