Within this lesson we explored the art of improvisation and ho it can help one emotionally connect with one's role, We were first advised to find a partner and then face them. e were then told to create an imaginary world and situation through improvisation. Me and my partner Jordan produced a number of small scenes each with different narratives; some were slow and dramatic and some were quicker and comedic. For instance, in one improvisation we accepted the roles of step-brothers waiting at a train station, bored, aggravated and tired. Jordan's character was the slightly more talkative one asking me a number of questions which my character would answer with broad replies therefore conveying the tension in their relationship.
Next, we were instructed to work independently for the coming exercise. The class was told to mime a scene which involved the day-to-day doings of a person. Some people mimed someone doing the washing up etc. In my piece I entered the role of someone trying on their sisters make-up then realizing how scary they look.
