Good Morning Year 10, our lineup for today is as follows:
1. Watch "Shape" video
2. Warm up exercise
3. Get into groups and
Script writing-Before you write the script for your sit-com pilot, there are a few things you need to know and do.
a. Brainstorm - Take notes, create mind-maps, etc to document this process.
b. Write a plot idea and the basics of an outline of the script. Remember that you are writing a sit-com pilot. Look at your Commedia dell'Arte characters. Who will be whom? What kind of scene will you create? What will the basic story line be? What acting techniques will you use?
c. Develop a relationship map (who's who, and how is everyone related?)
Your presentation should be about 8-10 minutes. It will be video-taped.
This work will help prepare you to write your Statement of Artistic Intention.
4. Write a process journal entry at the end of class. (What did you learn today? How did it affect you? How will you use this information? etc.) Try to focus on Criterion B (developing skills) and Criterion C (thinking and ideas).
1. Watch "Shape" video
2. Warm up exercise
Follow Your Nose
A movement exercise for the whole group. Move around the room, filling up the space, changing pace, changing direction, being aware of other people but not touching them. Now become aware of your nose. Let your nose lead you around the room. Follow it wherever it goes!
Develop this by focusing on different parts of the body, so that participants begin to discover new ways of moving. Very useful for dance or physical theatre, or simply for discovering movement ideas for characters. Try being led by your stomach, your little toe, your knee, your back and so on.
Learning Objectives: | To develop physical movement To cooperate in group work |
Age Group: | 6+ |
Participants: | Whole group |
Recommended time for activity: | 10-15 minutes |
