12/2/13 grease rehearals

12/2/13 grease rehearals

what we did today

we choregrapghed look at me, im sandra
i think its humours it works well how everyone gets involved down the line as rizzo walks back and forth, the incenked movements together movements to go with the lyics.

also today 3 actors swaped thier charactors, so this has changed alot but we went though with them swapped.

we added more movement to the fights again between rizzo and sandy. and rizzo and knickiey.
when a fight brecks out it sould be panicy and everyone grapping the pear away from eachother.

in summer nights we have built up the energy girls more intrested and excitable, ladys more intrested and ramp/ladish.

5/2/13 grease rehearals

grease rehearal 5/2/13

today we went through the park scene we sorted out

  • postioning (were everyone stands and sits)
  • built up the energy when a fight brecks out
  • decided on who graps rizzo and pulls her back
why
it looked messy and dull with no energy and someone needs to grap rizzo to separate the fight
it now looks more realistic

we went though up to end of act one

went striaght into each scene 

why

  • to become furmilier with the play
  • furmilier with our lines
we choregrapghed mooning and cleaned up grease lightening and choregrapghed freddie my love and those magic changes

29/1/13 grease rehearals

29/1/13 grease rehearal

today in class we started from the begining of grease, and went though to after summer nights, we had sorted up to there ruffly with scripts, in the week, up to this lession we had to know our lines up to summer nights, i did learn my lines up to there in the week but in lession i still held my script for comfort.

the begining song Rydell

is going pritty well i think im not clear on all the words yet but almost there the exitworks well, one by one we exit off up stage in criss-cross.

The Greasers song

this song is not really progressing its messy and they are un-sure of thier lines. it needs more energy and singing.

scene two

 the chractors are clear, you can tell whats going on, i think both partys need to know ques of when to talk after the other. most people still needed thier scripts.

summer nights

needs alot of work, ques, works, energy, movement
i get stuck on my solo line i find it high pitched and where everyones just sat un-energetic im finding it hard i will get it,but currently open my mouth and nothing comes out.

last lession we went slowly though the begining scenes, staging and correnting emotions and expressions, this lession we went straight though them scenes and from here we went slowly staging est..

end of scene 2

when sandy and danny meet again positoning is abit ruff, when sandy gets throw forwards in to danny that needs cleaning up

scene 3

positioning,lines, movement

those magic changes

i thinks going well, we have choregrapghed a sutal dance that suots the style of music sutal clicking, swaying, boping, ending needs a good pose.

scene 4

needs more movement but is already funny and entertaining (girly banter between them) lines

freddy my love

i dont yet have the cd so i hadnt heard this song before so i was unsure of what i was doing, i need to get this cd and lishen and pratice, i need to play along with the song the girlys are being all dreamy over a guy.

grease lightnin needs work but i did not see this song

this week

i need to get this cd and pratice. also i need to go over new next lot of works. i need to bulit my confidence to sing my line in summer nights.

Audience day for grease 11/12/12

AUDICTION DAY FOR GREASE 11/12/12

WHAT WE DID TOO PREPARE

  • We warmed up with humming and singing 'lar' in scales to warmup our vocal cords

WHY
just like any other muscle the muslce needs to be warmed up before being used the vocal cord is a muslce in your throt and before singing you must warm up other wise you will damage you vocal cords by straining the muslce

WHAT WE THEN DID

  • We went though our duet (me and max) wicked - as long as your mine
  • his solo from jungle book
  • my solo from hair spray (big blonde and beauitful)
  • We then went though it again and agin to improve our singing and timing warming up our vocal cords futher
  • we then had a break to relax before rehearing more

HOW IT WENT

We started with the duet, we changed our song to karaoke version, i was nervous at first and i think you could hear it in my singing. we stopped as we got to the chorse, i think we could of done better because we had done better in rehearals, max then did his solo and then i did mine after, i think the second time i sung was better then the first

WHY
I was not as nervous i felt more confident and i felt disipointed that the first song did not go as well and needed my second to be good

WHAT I COULD DO NEXT TIME TO DO BETTER

Pratice more, aspecily in front of other people, and pratice more with the karaoke version, lishon to my own voice, improve on my voice

MY MONOLOG

I felt it went well i could of done better with the changing the emotions of my speak

WHY
I stumbled a littlie on what i was say when changing the emotions in my voice but it was not a biggy, early days and i carried on.

WHAT I COULD DO NEXT TIME TO DO BETTER

Pratice the speak in other emotions before the audiction, keep reading and going though the lines more.
