The Short Creenplay : Your short film from Concept to Production by Dan Gurskis

Not really one of my favourites...only because I prefer realness acting than melodramatic acting. All american brush first before breakfast...except for Ken    n.n. 

22.07.15 SCREENWRITTING So TEXT FILM...relatively new concept but effective none the less.  A very visual way to show subtext and true intention. For me the film made me concentrate on the words I could hear and the words I could see.  Having no moving image helped with this.   I dear say this style of film making is perfect for short-short film.  Get’s the message across

24.07.15 SCREENWRITTING  Excellent use of high impact.  Even though the main character didn’t say any words; she expressed herself through her demeanour and facial expressions.  This was enough for me as the audience to understand the story completely.  I think that her facial expression said way more than words could ever say, it also fed into the structure of the film by where the a great build up was made (rising action) with the crisis happening right at the end.  Her facial expression in the last 2 shots of the film milked my emotions like something crazy.

I’m using this song as inspiration for my monologue in my Voice Class with Midge.  I’m deriving from this song a message of forbidden love between to spieces of native nz birds - the kokako and the huia.

Tai taught our group some slow motion pops and they were pretty sweet.  This was a fun and light experience with 4SOB

After her lecture we did a dance activity where we had to do learn some street dance moves (bartman, wop, roger rabit and running man) and create a show dance with 4SOB.  Dee wasn’t here so myself, Tai and Vicky came up with some choreography.  I really enjoyed this because it got my blood pumping.  I also learnt that both Tai and Vicky are not foreign to street dance.

JENNY HOLZER: actual tho...
