I thought Max, particularly, showed good characterisation through his posture and facial expressions . I was told I showed “good characterisation DIRECT ADDRESS- something I struggle with as I can’t focus properly if I can’t see who I’m acting to Looking at other peoples, I liked Ria’s facial expressions and the minor details she included- like a ring her relative had- which added to the emotional impact because it made it seem more personal. This was effective because it mirrored the thoughts of relatives swirling around their head, none of which are very clear Looking at other groups, I thought that both Sian and Ian had a good rapport with the audience and showed this by direct address and eye contact with diverse audience members This was effective in showing how even though they are opposing sides, the parent and child are feeling the same set of emotions .MUSIC /MOVEMENT PIECE As a whole group this was both fun, but difficult to weave in and out each other without tripping or falling, whilst remaining in character I learned a lot from this bit and saw how people leave their families due to the family itself sometimes and how just being excluded can make them want to go This was effective as usually the parent has some inclination as to why they went away, but doesn’t want to admit it, so they play oblivious This wasn’t a particularly capable group I worked with, which was very frustrating, but the ideas I used suited each of them in different ways and it went well
