Class on Monday 7/20/20

A. What did you learn (specifically)?

1. Displayed homework assignment
2. Worked with a partner in an improv scene to extend our homework character

Exercise Steps --->
a) Take 3 deep breaths to relax
b) Establish where you are (if applicable, the atmosphere)
c) Establish the relationship with your partner without saying who it is
d) Maintain the "secret" underlying psycho-emotional state that Jon gives each partner
e) Allow the above elements to reveal themselves naturally

B. How did the learning affect me?

The learning REALLY helped me practice patience and hold on to my character and stay focused! Often times we can get easily distracted at an audition or on set which can cause major delays in production. It's important to stay grounded and prepared to GO when told to do so!

C. Did Jon say anything quotable?
"Take advantage of your space!"

HOMEWORK

a) If you HAVE done an improv scene with the individual that you observed for homework, you must now choose a different icon of the opposite sex and bring that person into the essence of yourself while maintaining your own gender

b) If you HAVE NOT done an improv scene with the individual that you observed for homework, this will be your assignment for next class in addition to showcasing your 30-40 secs of you icon from the interview that you chose[/u]

Yes establish before speaking. Anybody can blabber, but art is in the specifics.
