WEEK 14 (Silence in the Wings)

For this weeks work on silence on the wings, we started off on Thursdays morning session with Kristen. Each time I join Kristen's session, I feel more comfortable talking with my group. This week we took part in more virtual exercises which I really enjoyed. One exercise we did was one truth and one lie, in which we had to come up with one true and one false lie about ourselves. This task was funny and I got to learn more about my class mates. We also took in turns to chat about how our week was and what we had been up to. I think these sessions are helping to build my confidence and I really enjoy taking part I them.

In the second session my class mates and I discussed the running order for the Silence in the Wings performance and we spoke about what we'd be comfortable saying. I have my answers to the question Emma and Amy are going to ask me. I also downloaded a copy of the running order because I thought it would be helpful. As we are planning more of the performance each week, I'm starting to feel better and less stressed about performing. I'm glad I have the role of DSM because I know more about this role than for example lighting.

In the last session, I had completed every task I needed to do so I checked over my set design and found ways to improve it. As my set design is a split scene, i added more detail to the outside such as fake flowers and plants to make the scene look outdoors.

Target: My target to complete next week is to take part in another session with Kristen and get to talk to everyone in my group.
