My Performance Journey - Production Diaries.

Image
  Monday 11th of September. This was my first full day at college with both years in the theatre. Since it was only our first day we only did a few small activities one of which was a word association game.  We did this as it helped us think quickly under intense situations, which we will need for our performance in The Globe.  After this we did a whole group freeze frame of a pirate ship to test our ability to stay in character.  As well as this we all got into groups and wrote down our rules and expectations of the course.  Finally, at the end of the day we all wrote down our skills that could come in handy for our different shows. Tuesday 12th of September.

Unit 12: PROJECT PROPOSAL

I confirm that the attached portfolio is all my own work* and that any work created by anyone other than myself, including AI-generated content, has been appropriately referenced. Name Ben Spruce Pathway Performing and Production Arts – Acting for Stage & Screen. Project title The Lovely Bones Section 1: Rationale  Running upto the end of my time on this course, these two years have given me many opportunities that have helped me truly grow and change as an actor.   Each of these opportunities has challenged me in different ways, from thinking on the spot with the Ghostlight Tours, to stretching myself emotionally with roles like Adam.   Before I began this course I never thought I was capable of such things as an actor, which is why I want to stretch myself further by staying on the level 4 course.   Finally, I believe playing a role like Mr Harvey will rea...
