Theatre writting about my own group and the stage setting


We have done our theatre product last week as a group. We chose the songnalpgue that Mao has done and we added other things like music lights and filmed it. I think it’s pretty good.
First of all，Mao did a really good job, no matter the emotion she put on the monologue and the tone she uesd，they was all wonderful. I would like to say Mao's acting was the main reason that we could build such a good vibe for the audiences. Moreover, we also have used other things to color our product. We really chose a very good place to act. We filmed in the back room of the stage, it is a narrow room with a very smooth dark light. It is just suitable for our production. We didn't want the vibe of the whole monologue to be tremendously sad, but we did want it to be depressing. The room is not dark like crazy, the light is just on that point. Another thing that I think we used to color our monologue is that the music, I played guitar for our product, I used very quiet licks to express the mood, I don't think I played well because the weather was so cold, and I could not move my fingers. However, I'm glad that the guitar helped to build emotion.
About the costumes, Mao took her makeup box there to make the room like her own room, and we had a mirror to reflect the expression on Mao's face. Mao wore pink clothes when we were filming, I think it's hoped to tell this girl's personality, and show this girl is a normal girl just like others.

Monologue Review

                                                We have done our little monologue acting through last few week，everyone‘s wonderful and it makes stressful. Anyway，for my acting，the boy named Austin knocks head of school’s door，I would like to say there is something I‘m quit satisfied，but also there is something I think I can prove. First，I’m very glad that can learn something from classmates，everyone has their characteristics when they are performing，I really have stolen some from them. I learnt how to focus  on details and sometimes a little action or expression can effect the character you are performing. Moreover， I learnt how to use breath to create different levels of the character I‘m performing.  Moreover, when I was acting Austin I used a lot of pause to show that the character is nervous, from the feedback of people, I learnt how to change the paus...

Sound in theatre

The sound  designer is in charge of anything that is heard during the production. This includes life or recorded music and  sound  effects as well as the vocal projection of the actors, both speaking and singing. A bit History Around 3000BC, China and India accompanied their theatrical productions with incorporated music and sound, and we know of examples of sound used throughout the history of theatre. In Greek tragedies and comedies the productions call for storms, earthquakes, and thunder when gods appear. There is an extensive history of the machinery that was used scenically; and even though there are only a few mentions of it, there were also uses of machinery in place for the few sound effects they needed. In the Roman theatre, Heron of Alexandria invented the thunder machine using brass balls that would drop onto dried hides arranged like a kettledrum, and the wind machine with fabric draped over the rotating wheel. In 1913, Italian Futurist composer Luigi ...

FInal Draft

LET’s Drink a Case of You “A Case Of You” as a song which has been very popular since 1971 has several interesting point to analysis and people have different adaptations within the text. Most of people think that the song talks about all the missing the author has to her lost husband.  It seems to me, the text tries to prove how much the author misses her country and loves her country. Joni Mitchell is a Canadian singer and songwriter. She quotes the famous Shakespeare line “ I am as constant as a northern star” on the first stanza of the song. It is spoke by by Caesar to his conspirators right before they assassinate him. I think it shows the constant heart of the author that she loves her country deeply and her heart will never be moved.  Moreover, following the text, the author states that “ I drew a map of Canada Oh, Canada” . It shows how much the author misses her home country especially she writes “ And I sketched your face on it twice” following tightly. “ tw...
