Class Session 1
Jake P for Role
Full details of homework is on Closing Credits
Great read Jake! Lovely pacing, good clarity, changing up on the repeated lines, comfortable and tonally consistent. A really nice read, but not quite the read we were looking for. With this homework, we wanted less miced up for a ted talk and more giving and assembly speech in a gym without a mic. More volume, more projection, more energy into the crowd!
Do me a massive favor, next weeks homework I'd like you to imagine your screaming it out to your mate as your running through a forest, at least for the first half of the script. I wanna hear what kind of range you have and can work with!
As for this weeks read, it was strong. I think the only thing I would want to go back and tweak is the energy through the read, we stayed very much at the same level and I think the read could benefit from some energy movement. It's a wacky script, full of contradictions, let's lean into it and get a bit more silly with it and less straight man. Other than that I can;t complain about the rest of the read. It's neat and tidy. Clean work Jake! Looking forward to hearing more. Oh and do note in next weeks hw if you did the forest running thing, so I'll know to tackle that review as well!
Thanks for the feedback, Edmund. I'm about to knock out the next HW, and screaming a tongue twister sounds like fun, so I'll give it a go!
