In class writing 9/10

Reflect on your experience last week exploring Verbatim Theater. Why do you think people do it? What does it accomplish? What was your experience like (and your group's experience)? Was the process difficult? And if so, how so? Were any aspects easier than others? Did you enjoy it? Why or why not? What did you learn?

I think people do it in purpose of thinking about the details and actions they should perform to make the performance look more similar with the person. We had an interview first to record their way to talk and scrips. My group appeartly spent too much time on interviewing part since we thought about the stories for a long time. However, I think the most important part is not about the stripes. It’s more connecting with the actions and the way of talking. There’re some small details that could show who you are acting. For example, David has some body language such as hang his hands. So it’s better to distinguish that our group performanced David. The process of thinking about the scripts is the most challenge part for us because we does not really have some stories to tell. Moreover, Since David doesn’t have a lot of specific body language and ficial experience so we could not appeartly show his character. However, we added some details to show it is David in some ways. I was really enjoy the part that we think about how can we show that we were acting David. It is also the most important aspect that I learnt from the project. If you’d like to performance someone, the first step is thinking about his/her special ways of talking and specific body language which could be distinguished from others. It could also be used in our later projects. For example, we could people’s personality and create some special body language to express the emotion and personalities.
