class was good on Tuesday.
We hardly understand the nuances of different kinds of sounds that come our way, and that even those sounds convey emotions.

I too had the unfortunate experience of viewing the silent film on the civil war. It goes to show how important it is to develop these skills we have tried to cultivate in ourselves as actors without the faculties of sound! They were really horrible at conveying action and reactions with no words. As Fabio would say, they 'played an emotion.' That said, I am really glad Josh and I got to work on our final in class today, I think it will help us loads. I'm kind of nervous for it, though...

Tuesday Night

I was at my night class tonight and we were watching a silent film made in 1915 about the start of the Civil War. I liked thinking about how acting has evolved in terms of film, but the art has always been the same-dating all the way back to ancient Greece (pretty sure that was it). I thought the film was kind of funny, though, because it looked like these people just filmed it in their backyard, and the addition of text didn't really help me understand what was going on. But just because our audience can actually see and hear us clearly doesn't mean Dave's and my final is a sure thing. Hope everything works out!

finals week

i was glad that i got to work on my final today in class. it really helped me get more of an understanding for what we have to do. i think that with more practice we will do very good on the final!

finals week

I took acting for Non-majors and all I got was this stupid blog

So yea, myself and Tim's project is coming along grandly...I feel nervous because we still have over a week to work on it but we really want to make sure that we get it done and get to go in class so that we can get some positive feedback...Watching Dane's and Chelsea do their's and the feedback that they got from it was awesome...I say it is definitely worth a lot to all of us to do our skit and have the Fabster critique it...So I am looking forward to being able to go sometime this week...

I'm looking forward to class tomorrow because I really would like to work on my skit. I think that what we have now is pretty good and I'm looking to get some feedback. On another note, I'm real upset that the Browns lost on Sunday because, lets face it, he got pushed at. Plus the Patriots won. All in all it was not a good week for me as far as sports are concerned.
