Tuesday 31st of August 2010
This was my very first drama lesson at CIS. We worked on improvising, which I gather is the current unit. We focused first on establishing a platform. This is the first few seconds of a scene where the actor establishes the who, where, when and what of the improve. We all practiced establishing a platform. This is surprisingly hard to do, as you have to mention aspects of where you are and what you are doing that you wouldn’t ordinarily mention. Afterwards we were divided into half and in turns the group worked in an improve scene. There were different types of scenes; there was trouble keeping the scene going and not losing the plot by going all over the place. One of the improvisations went from desert to waking up to a person having mental issues. After this, we did an exercise singing by the piano, something I didn’t entirely understand. Through out this lesson I was rather quite, but I will try to be more active in the future.
