Lecturer: Jamie Roberts
Lesson One
The lesson started with a lead warm-up with no teacher present. It didn't go at all well because it was unorganised and had no structure to it.
This made it unenjoyable to take part in.
The aim of this lesson was to work as a team together and understand that things don't always have to be complicated.
We were asked to create different images using ourselves and materials such as cloth and netting. We created a cave with just our bodies, then water with a stretchy piece of cloth.
This was very rushed, but successful and the challenge of creating a convincing image in so little time was exciting.
Next, we were given the task of creating a house, first being allowed to talk, then in complete silence.
When we were allowed to talk, it was a complete mess because although we had plenty of time, everyone was rushing to put forward ideas, which meant everyone was speaking at once.
When we did it in silence, it was a little better, although it was hard to communicate our ideas to the group.
Because we didn't have time to explore why this exercise went so wrong before the end of the lesson, we were told to go and think about how the house could be created over our lunch hour and come back with an idea to share with the class.
I don't think I had a strength in this lesson, as I wasn't at all good at our task. I found it really hard, because I just can't seem to picture what I want the image to look like inside my head.
My target is to work on it and get better.
