Work on your acting. Presentations tomorrow! Names drawn randomly.
Here are some questions for you to ask in small groups.
PERFORMANCE SHEET: TIPS
Have your partner give you his/her script when they act for you.
When you watch your partner comment on the following items:
1) Does you partner have any emotion in his/her voice when they read? Does the emotion match the emotion the have or their script? If not try and suggest possible ways the person can say the line.
2) Does your partner have any actions? Do the actions match the character’s emotion and the scene? If not think of places your partner can add actions or how they can change their actions to fit the mood of the scene. Remember—you can use action to bring out key images or you can use action to bring out character.
3) Ask your partner what they think the character means when speaking his/her lines? What points is he or she trying to get across? What are they thinking when they are speaking? What is their motive in speaking?
4) Are they any places where your partner slipped-up, stumbled or forgot their lines. If so have them repeat those lines 3 times.
5) Any suggestions on how your partner can improve his/her acting and/or memorization.
6) What kind of grade would you give your partner? Why?
