10 Steps to Perfection

Hello World!

Today Ms. Thomas gave us a wonderful lesson on how to create a perfect scene, and I thought I would share it with you so that maybe when you’re watching a movie or T.V. show you can look out for these key elements.

· Set the environment

· Establish you’re character

· Establish the relationship between the characters

· Commit to the scene

· Establish conflict

· Unravel the scene towards the denouement

· Back door exit

· Always leave the audience wanting more!

Time Fly's

Hello World!

Our class in currently in the process of branding!

The tensions between the two groups are high! Each group is sabotaging each other, and each group is also trying to find out the other groups name. It’s hectic, but also fun at the same time, but balancing a two credit class with my other classes and work is the hard part!

Pray for me!

Family Support

Hello World!

So I’ve officially been blogging for about a month now, and in all my blogs I’ve mentioned my wonderful class, and the fun experiences I’ve had. But I never once mentioned my amazing family.

So umm… “Class of 2010 I’m really happy for you, and I’m gunna let you finish. But I have the best family of all time!... OF ALL TIME!”

My family has always supported me with my acting career from day one. Weather it be waking up a 5 am to drive me to auditions, or even taking time out of their busy schedule to come to all of my shows. No matter what, I always know that when the curtains open I always see them in the front row cheering me on and taking tons of horrible pictures! And that why I love them!

Thanks you!

Method Acting

Hello World!

Today our class just got a major assignment.

Our assignment is to take method acting to the streets!

Through out the week members of our class will be dressing up and going to different venues around Brampton doing method acting! For the assessment each member of the class has to come up with a method acting character (Drug addict, teen mom, abused girlfriend), and act it out all around Brampton to see how members of society react to these different personalities.

I already have my character in mind and I can’t wait to see how people react to it!

Branding

Hello World!

It’s official!

The Acting Academy is finally heating up.

We started branding this week, and it’s bound to leave me with many sleepless nights. In case you’re wondering what in the world branding is I’ll break it down for you!

Branding is when Ms. Thomas splits the class up into two groups, and each group has to come up with a company name to “brand” the class with. Sounds simple eh? NO!

Here’s where it gets tricky… Each group has to throw a launch party to persuade a group of guest judges to go with their company name. Sounds easy? No again!

Coming up with the perfect name, logo, slogan, class colours, and include a video in one week is hard. Rest assured that every minute of it will be fun, but also draining!
