Tuesday 18TH January.

Tuesday the 18TH of January's Drama Lesson was really good.

I liked the activities we did.

At the start of the lesson we discussed the ways we can add to character profiles by doing more research on a similar character out of such movie/program that is related to the character we play in the assessment performance.

In our groups (Tia, Georgee, Suleman, Mohammed Jahed, Shakeel, and Connor) we hot seated each character.

Hot seating is where we sit in a seat and ask the person in the seat questions to learn more about their character role in the performance. Questions such as 'Are you gay?' or 'What do you look like?' were really inappropriate and disturbed the concentration of the group alot. I was very annoyed that we didn't go through each character properly and did not learn much about each character because of some inappropriate questions in the hot seating.

Appropriate questions such as 'How do you feel about the kidnap?' and 'What are your interests?' were more likely to get responsive answer.

Then after break, we rehearsed our performances again and thought about the characters actions and emotions we used in the rehearsal. Miss Williams also told us to make a list of any Props, Costumes & Music we would like to include in our performance for next week. This gave us many ideas and included unique items on the list.
Such as:
Police Hat
Police Baton
Plastic Gun
Balaclava
Walking Stick
Driving Wheel
Music; 
Game Over by Tine Tempah
Breakage Hard
Mission Impossible

We learnt more about the concept of hot seating.
