I think that the new idea is cool however at first it was quite confusing, but once we went through it it made more sense, making it more trippy will be effective as someone said we can make everything bigger and more dynamic like the costumes and set. As Dorothy it makes it more interesting as its like she's going into a Disney like atmosphere, a complete contrast to her reality. Therefore making it a more modern story appealing to our audience/era more.
I think the devising of the scene went really well as well as the blocking. My weakness was probably trying to act drunk to improve this I'm going to try and let loose more and watch a few films which include actors doing to see how they do it realistically.
In this lesson we also blocked the Meeting the Wiz scene and the Emerald City scene. With the Emerald city section I was acting off cast, and got given the part of one of the citizens. In this scene their is a lot of imagery within the script this made it easier to block movement, also because we are Ozians we could make it as big and dramatic, I gave a few ideas within this as I'm better at creating movement it being one of my strong skills within musical theatre. I like this scene as it is more energetic and fun especially with the movement as well as the lines being quite comical.
Lastly we did the meeting the Wiz section for this Jess and I swapped back over so I was learning the scene as Dorothy. This scene was fun as I hadn't had a chance to work with Max yet or had a chance as Dorothy with the Wiz, we kept experimenting different ways for Max workout how he wanted to act the Wiz, as well as the relationship between our characters. Eventually we worked out that at first my character was confident against the Wiz but then quickly intimidated by him, I liked our final outcome because it made scenes more dynamic. My character has quite a big impact within this scene because otherwise the friends wouldn't be brave enough to say anything also a bargaining chip against the wiz. My interaction with the other characters within the scene i would say for the friends is that she is trying to protect them but also not too focused on them at the same time as the majority of her attention is upon The Wiz.
Overall I think that it was a successful lesson, I had learnt more lines by this lesson so I had partially attained one of my improvements from previous lessons, I think my strengths of this lesson we inputting ideas as well as characterisation with others, my weakness still being lines slightly, confidence and still characterisation to improve these I will continue to learn my lines and practice them in front of a mirror to develop my characterisation still I will do this until i have learnt all my lines and am happy with how I portray them.
