Lots has been going on, research, anatomy my way, socialising, teaching, reflecting, wanting to be elsewhere BIG TIME, rushes of inspriation, the space between is what im playing for, the future, the present but rarely the past, rectus femerous, owning it, the movement director, love far away, voice my voice, tension, imagary, release, persona, an enormus sense of wellbeing, more than just yoga!, the pleasure of boring things, I am what I am....
Finding a connection through body and voice, emotion in the voice and the capacity to play your role through what you are really feeling experiencing.
Presentation 2 - I want to communicate something well. I want to stay connected to my audience. I want to give accessible, useable advice. I think I did this on tuesday when talking about how an actress would play the role of a pregnant character.
Why has my writing on here become less poetic and free?, why does this happen?, my source of inspiration seems to be in the building more than outside. So I think my learning has become a bit tunnel vision and maybe this has left me flat. I do want to tunnel myself because I think it is necessary but I also feel connected to my knowlege when I open my senses and live. To make it real is how I own it. I need to trust that.
I had a lovely sense of me on my way this week with a big difference in the work I presented compared to my peers I was happy. I mean happy in the knowledge that I was less technical, included less aquired knowledge as them but that I did the task my way. I learned from it.
I take the notes that they give me and I must plod on and keeping working my way.
Its the first time for years that I don't know what is round the corner which seems strange as I havn't had regular work for 6 years which is normal, but this sensation is different. I am living in a new place, completley new, I am in love, I think i'm taking a risk, I am starting a new chapter out here and in me.
Some things I heard this week...
Actors want to feel but they would be better sensing
Actors are the creators, the team around them just support it
As a movement person working with actors keep your powder dry don't be a 'movement person'
Work with the actor, in their language
Hold back, let them do it. Don't be a wonderful mover it's not useful
The movement musn't overtake the expression
Keep the warm up, gestural rooted in pedestrian movements
use voice - actors need it
be very focused on the aim of the movement session
