We had an excellent first workshop today!
Improv Rules to remember:
1. Don't think, just do!
(Go with the first thing that pops into your head.)
2. Justify your actions!
(Make sure what you're doing makes sense with what is going on in your scene.)
3. Yes, and ...
(Always accept what your scene partner(s) offer you, and then add onto it - justifying your addition.)
4. Be clear - for your scene partner(s) AND the audience.
5. HAVE FUN!
Other things to remember:
1. Use your body! Actors don't just stand around...they MOVE!
2. Project your voice! Volume, volume, volume. If you are not using your voice how will the audience know what you are saying?
The students involved in the project brought, and shared, some really great material regarding bullying - a topic that affects so many. It is seen and experienced around the world, without regard for age, gender or nationality. We hope to open the eyes of all those taking part in the project and all who see its final presentation.
Next workshop date - SATURDAY DECEMBER 8TH 9am - 12noon
*once again, please bring a snack.
Next step ... impoving with the material ...
