We started
off with a game called Mexican wave
Recounting-
in this game we all had to lie face down on the ground and pass a wave around.
Reflecting-
this exercise was all about focus and determination
Conclusion-
i did mess up the wave a couple of times and I also noticed that was a bit
slower than the rest of the group so i will have to work on that.
Next we
played a game of ‘me you ‘
Recounting-
in this game we had to stand in a circle. One person had to start off the offer
by saying ‘me you’ and walking toward another person.
Reflecting-
this game was about focus and concentration.
Conclusion-
I think i went pretty okay in this game. It was fun and it got me into focus. I
also think we worked well as a group in this game.
next we were put into groups. i was with Lauren and Margaret. We first started off with physical offers such as making shapes using our bodies with out talking. i think we worked well as a team.
After that we moved on to verbal offers by saying 'lets go...'. one person would make the offer and the other two would say 'yes lets'. This exercise helped us with our commedia skills as it taught us to accept offers and most commedia performances are improvised, therefore it requires a lot of offers and acceptances.
Finally we did emotional offers, in which you had to act out whatever emotion was called out.
Combining all the emotions we went through, we made a short scene without words.
7 emotions :-
a. joy
b. grief
c. fear
d. anger
e. surprise
f. love
h. laughter
