Tears with Luke
I found it really interesting how emotional people got over what they were thinking in their heads. Some people thought of how they would sneak somewhere and grab a hat. What would happen? How would you approach this. Some pictured their big brothers scolding them. I could see this as startling, but just how much it upset them was a shocker to both myself, others, and especially them. Another thing I found interesting with this hat scene was all the different ways one person could approach the same task, sneaking somewhere to get a hat. While some were scared, others were annoyed, some were nervous, and some just didn't know what to do. With these ways, I wonder just how many approaches could be taken to this simple task. Maybe it isn't as simple as it seems.

T'was a crazy class, that is for sure.
ReplyDeleteWhat happened for you, though, that is what is interesting to me.
What happened?
I felt like my performance was real, but looked like acting. This is because my life is about what I do, including acting and dancing. I know how to move so that I am as silent as I can be, and since I'm a dancer, I always try to have a sense of grace in my movements. When I'm at camp, there are often people sleeping in the bunk beds and I can't wake them up. When I got the hat, I did exactly what I did and snuck into the bunk as silently as I could, and I took the hat. I wanted it to be real, but I knew it didn't look like it to the viewers. I wasn't sure if It would have been better to make it fake, but make it look real, or make it real, which looks fake. I went with the second option, since the task was to make it our own situation. I hope it didn't look too silly or fake because I thought it did, even though for me it felt real.

ReplyDeleteWhen you are actually sneaking around is this the sort of stuff that goes through your head???
No and that isn't what I was thinking during my sneaking in the class, but it was what was steaming through my mind before I entered. When I was doing the sneaking, I was thinking if anyone was looking at me, if anyone was in the bunk, if anyone was coming in, and if I was silent enough not to wake up one of the sleeping counselors.
