1) Monologue Video
Just to be clear... this assignment was due last Friday so you should have no problems getting this to me. You video yourselves all the time, don't make it a nervous thing, have fun and GO FULL OUT! Act the thing!
Obviously for some of us internet problems occur. That's ok you will have to do it in front of the class when we return like the assignment was originally supposed to be.
1) Make sure you send me a video of your MY STORY/YOUR STORY monologue
- send to dayna.strickland@cobbk12.org - in the subject of the email put: YOUR NAME/Monologue
- Due Wednesday March 18th (again, this should have been completed already this is not new work)
- when you get it in, I can give you feedback via email if you want! AND I can post some to the blog (only if you want)
Some things to be sure of (that will make it look better):
- DO NOT USE THE FRONT FACING CAMERA ON YOUR PHONE
- STAND UP and make sure the camera is level with your body (not below or above)
- make sure there are as minimal sounds (other than your voice) as possible
- dress school appropriate (I'm still your teacher even though I am still in my pj's too rn)
- make sure you are well lit (from LIGHTS people.... I can hear your jokes about that from my house :)

-Email me the photo(s) of your PERSPECTIVE RENDERING full color (use graphite pencil and color pencils only)
- ALSO email me a photo of your GROUND PLAN (what the scenic design looks like from the sky) - regular pencil only for this, no color
- If you want to draw either digitally I will accept that as well.
- Due Friday (in class this would have been 3 hours of work and we already did 1hr on this)
- Type up a minimum of two paragraphs explanation of WHY you designed/drew what you did
- You can also send me a video of you straight up presenting it and show me everything via video. (I personally would love this because seeing/hearing you is always my favorite for this class)
--- example of what I mean: "I chose red walls in this scene because it is the vampire's lair andI wanted the audience to
immediately think "blood" --- THE WHY you know Mrs. Day LOVES the why, why did you do it/choose it/think it/draw it

Any questions please email me or text in the remind, I am here and excited to help you!

They are moving into a VOCAL unit. Learning how to:
-project (fill the theatre with their natural voice without damaging their vocal cords)
-Using the diaphragm to project properly
-learning to play with tone, inflection, rate and pitch
We are currently studying cartoons/voice over artists to learn how vocal quality is a reflection of a character's traits in a performance.

This week we are working on pantomime.
The students are in randomly selected groups 5-6 and have been tasked with telling a story without speaking.
They are working together within their groups to come up with a story/blocking/choreography and background music. They have rehearsed together in class and will be performing on Friday the 24th for a project/presentation grade.
A note on attendance for Friday: PLEASE do whatever you can to make sure your student (or you) are there on Friday so your group is not scrambling to figure out how to cover your part.
