Class A Week 7 Homework Submission
Nick McCue for Mrs. Mary Nilimore
Homework:
3 auditions per day
200 doggy pants per day: it has now been 6 weeks since we introduced this exercise to you all. For those of you who are getting use to 200 and can do them comfortably in 1 sitting, I recommend aiming for 400 at this point.
Monologue: Going forward, I will be listening to not just your vocal techniques but also bits about your acting as well. I encourage you all to be reading this week's monologue while moving your hands. If you are able to watch yourself in the mirror, pay attention to see if you are repeating the same hand gestures over and over again; or perhaps, you find yourself nodding to a particular rhythm; or maybe your hand movements aren't synchronized to your speech sometimes. This will teach you a lot about the way you act and show you some habits that you never knew you had in your acting.
Please give at least 1 feedback to a fellow class mate who has note received a feedback yet.
Have fun!
Watch the "i" in "Nil'i'more." Slow things down to give your tongue more time to flatten out on your S-sounds. That will help you control your lisp. Also, warm up more. Your managed to control it much better the further you got in the script.
I do need to remember to open my mouth more. I think that is where a lot of problems start.
