Production x Ual students   This will be our very first performance with production plan. For this performance we where able to link class with the level 3 production student to prioritise how our performance will be staged. I really enjoy this sector of the course because it almost feels like a paid play but on tour.The costumes make-up, hair and ACTION.  What is the production part a performance?  Producing theatres have creative teams which develop new productions from existing or new works. This includes directors, musical directors and choreographers, as well as designers of sets, props, costume, lighting and audio-visual media.  This team manages technical aspects of a show covering sound, lighting and AV.

Session 1  the first session to me by surprise not because of what we were learning but the first thing we had to do when we got into the class room. Shocker is that we had to remove both shoes and sock and my phobia is feet even though i have a pretty good pair myself I don't like them. PERIODT. But I then realised if I want to make it to the top I needed to put that to the side and focus on giving a good impression. As per usual we started with a couple of  warm up exercises to energise our bodies. We then moved onto some pair to pair work were we had to us our ...

Macbeth x UAL Level 3

Shakespeare X Macbeth In this new year we will be discussing Shakespeare and his famous play Macbeth. Yes I already know the play that is basically rinsed out every year in our secondary school lives. The first thing that comes to my mind when speaking about Shakespeare was is he really a man or a woman?(Dun DUN DUNNNN suspense) but learning about Shakespeare surpassed whether he was a man or a woman but about his stories, metaphors and different language barriers.I mean this guy is the big kahuna  he has a whole eire named after him now that a dream. Many people believe William Shakespeare is the best British writer of all time. his many works are about life, love, death,revenge, grief ,jealousy ,murder ,magic and mystery. He had wrote the blockbuster plays of his days(literally), some of his plays were Macbeth,Romeo and Juliet and even Hamlet. Its been a very long time since he died we are talking 400 years. but you know what people still celebrate him now he has permanen...

In the beginning Macbeth was a Thane of Glamis. He met three witches that told him "you will become king." He didn't believe this, but the witches also told him he would become the Thane of Cawdor, which did happen. Then Macbeth began to believe them (a little). Next he thought "Being King wouldn't be too bad," so he and his wife, Lady Mac...
