Staging is interesting hmm

This is the first year that I learned about staging and acting scenes. I have no idea and also no experiences about how to progress but fortunately I always have awesome teammates.  So from my group when we are making acting scenes, and also from other groups I started to learn. 

I guess the first is how to write the scripts about our scenes. This is based on the rules of the scenes of what we are making. For example the first scene we did as group work is to act the balcony scene. We are required to use the modern language and set the scene in the modern world, which is similar to the movie we have watched during class. That one the language can be very easy, and we have more freedom to stage and set the scene, but we have to be really creative, which is kind of hard to make to adaptation better from the original one. The next one we did is about setting the scene in Cheshire Academy, which is kind of funny and interesting. But we are required to use the original text from the script of Romeo and Juliet. This seems so hard for me to make the scene. Because we need to be really familiar about the book, and also we have to edit the lines together as a whole to make it coherent. This is just like the work of director of movies.  

I have a hard time about making the scene with original text. Because I am so bad at the "Shakespeare's language ". They are hard to understand, and also memorize, even practice to read it more familiarly. It takes such a long time for me to read it clearly, smoothly and familiarly. Another part is about staging. I always forget to face the audiences during the scene. This is because I don't have that much experiences about acting I guess. It takes time, and I will pay more attention about it .

But for a scene, I guess I feel easier to act. Yes, acting. I mean I may not have the talent about acting, but I feel the experience about when we are acting is funny. I enjoy the time of it. Probably it also includes to read the scripts emotionally. I had the public speaking class from my English teacher last year, so I feel this is easy and definitely I can do it better. 

A good scene. I have watched some work which is amazing that was made by the drama actors, and also some good ones from our class. I guess one of the most important part is to make the setting more creative. We come to watch the play to enjoy, and a new, fresh and creative setting is excellent. I had the experience about the setting of the movie which we watched in class about Romeo and Juliet. I feel the director is talented about making creative scenes. I guess think more, practice more and focus more on the play can make me do better on it. We always can do better ideas and better choices, and it only takes us a little time to try.
