Here is your December Drama, Stagecraft, and Drama Club Newsletter, written by Drama and Stagecraft Students!
Drama I
"We are learning about characterization and how to be the character not just pretend. Currently we are focusing on the memorization of lines, but previously we were focusing on other topics. The other topics include character analysis, motion, and voice. Character analysis is finding out who your character is and finding out how they act. Motion and voice are important because everyone moves, talks, and acts in a different way. Learning how your character is helps you really bring he character to life. Most of the class focuses on transforming yourself into your character and really being to impact other people by being a different person. "
Stagecraft
"In Stagecraft we are working on getting everything ready for the musical. I am the crew head for wardrobe and in my crew we are working on pulling costumes that for the time period and the storyline of the play. We started by printing out pictures for a vision board so it was easier to put outfits together. We are also working on making sure everything stays organized in the green room so it makes this process easier."
The class also completed a mini Principles of Design unit in preparation for this musical build. We learned how specific design choices can convey different emotions, moods, and tones to try and best tell the story of a play. Otherwise, we are working hard at getting things ready for February!
