Class B Week 7 Homework Submission
fahmad27 for Mrs. Mary Nilimore
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 provide at least 1 feedback to another person who has not yet received a feedback yet.
Have fun!
Great focus on enunciation and the gestures you made to allow yourself to engage more came through well. I think you can pull back a little on the bite when you enunciate. Biting down hard works to resolve things like lisps and sibilance but it can make your B's and P's more susceptible to popping, and make the F's too "furry." Also, don't add any pauses after you've highlighted a word with a gesture. This will prevent the energy you put into your delivery with the gesture from immediately disappearing on the next word.
