What was your self-discipline and professionalism like in rehearsals?
During rehearsals I was very self-disciplined, I turned up to every rehearsal on time. I also stayed focused throughout the lesson. I learnt my lines quickly, which helped me during rehearsals as I was able to experiment more without being restricted. I worked well with others, I listened to peoples ideas and contributed to ideas. I also give people constructive criticism and showed them what things worked well while they were performing. During the rehearsals I was very motivated, I showed this by also turning up on time with a positive attitude.
How well did you Perform during the Show?
During the show I performed well, I remembered all my lines and blocking. I also spoke clearly and projected well. I smiled during the dances and had lots of energy and I was very enthusiastic. I also behavioured well backstage, making sure my voice was quiet and that I didn't touch other peoples props or block the stage entrances and exits.
If I were to repeat the whole process, I would probably work on my character more, and experiment more with body language, facial expressions and vocals.

Character Interations
How does my character interact with other?
In scene 1 my character is lazying around and playing pop up pirate. I am playing it with the 1st mate, this shows that we have a good relationship together. When Robbie tell the crew to introduce themselves, my character quickly, this shows that I have respect for the Captain, however you can tell by my body language that I don't want to do it. Also how my character responses to Sarah, I show this thought my facial expressions.
In scene 2 the audience gets to see how many character interacts with the crew. My character has a good relationship with Crew 2, because when she makes a point my character backs her up using a sounds effect. You also see that my character is quite jokey, and when the 1st Mate asks her a question she responses with a joke.
In scene 3 you see how my character responses to meet the other islanders. My character makes fun of the princess, she jokes around with the other crew members mimicking her actions. This also shows the audience more about my close relationship with the crew.

12th and 13th December 2012
We have started to run the show scene after scene, seeing how it would flow together. This is also good because we can practice how to act backstage.
We did an exercise that helped us get into character. We had to walk around the room and when Sonya would shout out a different way of moving we would how to walk like that. Then think about which character would walk like that.
In scene 1 when I am pushing Sarah off stage I would move directly. In scene 2 when we are doing the mop scene, I would walk in directly, because I have been given an order. When we are marching off I would walk directly and quickly. In scene 7, when I run on I would run directly because I am running with a purpose and i'm running directly to Sarah.

5th and 6th December 2012
Today we finished the blocking for scene 7. To show my relationship with the other character more when the Princess curtsy, me and the other crew member laugh at her, and also gesture to each other when Robbie is flirting with the princess.
We also had to come up with our own dance routine for one of the verses of Gangnam Style. We tried out a few peoples ideas, and merged idea's together to come up with a routines that we all liked. I made sure I listened to other peoples ideas and thoughts.
