Reflection of Group Project

I think the hardest thing of this project was creativity. We literally just had a poem as our inspiration, so how to turn a poem to the stage was the hardest thing. After we got to our plan rest of the performance was easy. I think we did practice a lot on collaboration because we needed to stand up and speak immediately after other people done with their lines. This was also a hard thing to do. I think the way we staged the stage and the pattern we used to perform was very interesting to watch especially at the end we used three languages to say same words. We successfully expressed the poem as whole class but I think the perform forms were limitated.

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.

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...
