Even though John and I work very well together and completed some of the goals I set for this scene, I was overall disappointed with my performance for the “Fridge” scene. After we ran through the first take and I received feedback, I felt confused with who my character was. Prior to our performance, we had discussed in class that my character was a shy girl who was flirty with Bruce (in an innocence manner). I felt that. I had the attitude of my character the way that I wanted it, however once Ryan told me to hold back more, I felt as though I did not know who I was trying to portray. As a result, when we filmed the second and final take I became too focused on being more shy and not enough on projection and thinking of my lines. I think it is extremely important to take suggestions from classmates seriously, however I became too focused on trying to change my character. I would have benefited if I had received the advice earlier, and could have worked on it and practiced my scene differently.
If John and I had been able to memorize our lines more, our scene would have been much better than it was. To be honest, I am disappointed with how this scene turned out. When I first read the script, I loved the scene because of it's quirkiness and how cute the characters acted with each other. If I could go back and work harder on the scene I would. I would pay more attention to the blocking, my projection, character development (although I personally really like what I originally thought of my character), and would work on memorization.
I was, however, very impressed with everyone else's scenes that I was able to see him before he had to leave the rest of the week. I think each group's performance stood out and were each different i their own way.
In the future, I would like to begin receiving more notes in person from my classmates. I think that when notes are given in person ahead of time, people are able to understand them better and describe them more efficiently to the actors on stage.
I hope that my next performance will be better than this previous one. Hopefully I will have more time to review notes, to memorize lines and to focus on blocking.
