Lecturer: Gavin Maxwell
Lesson Two

In this lesson, we watched the first part of The Envious Sisters and I learnt what I had to do with the stick to make a window at the beginning.

As I was watching the scene, I had a vivid picture of the basket containing the baby on a piece of blue cloth, being held by several company members, but I didn't suggest it because I knew it wouldn't work.

When I had watched and learnt it, Arnold, Daniella, Bradley and I went into the acting studio to block the first part of The Story Without An Ending.
As this was mainly Arnold and Daniella's scene, I concentrating on showing the emotions Dinarzad was going through as she listened to what was said.
These included shock, fear, pain and relief. Showing them was hard and I couldn't use words which is how I show my emotions. I showed her's by breaths, shoulders and facial expressions.
These took up a lot of time and energy to choreograph myself, so it kept me from becoming restless.

My target is to work on them further, and my strength was having the initiative to work on my character independently without being told to.
