Detail
Our Group: The boy who cried wolf
We used some of the 6 senses
- The mood 'content village', 'frendly everyone knew everyone', sudden shock, scared when the wolf came
- The feeling of the sheep 'wooly, fluffy sheep'
- The smell of the village 'smell of warm apple crumble and bread being made from the local bakery', and 'the smell of blood from the slotted sheep'
- The sight of the village 'small buildings, small town' pathway 'trees over inverted the pathway, The pathway was muddy foot printed from horses and animals and people' the path lead to the fields 'the fields had trees that sheltered some land'.
WHY
Adding the 6 sense's makes the performs more exciting, adding discrition creates a better picture of the story for the audience, using their amagnation
Group two: Goldy locks
- They described the taste of the porridge, 'warm, hot, too sweet, too bitter, just right'
- The noise of the 'creaking staris' to the bedroom.
- The mood of the bears and Goldy locks when the three bears came home, Little bear crying 'weeping into his parms', the adult bears where unhappy with Goldy locks they were 'anrgy', when Goldy locks woke up she was scared and shocked to see the three bears standing there.
- They describe the house and different rooms 'the house had a lovely front garden that was covered in different coloured flowers' the gate door was 'wooden blue'.
- They described the smell of cup cakes being cooked at the beginning 'the smell of warm cooking cookies awoken Little red riding hoods mother'
- They described the sight of the woods 'surrounding trees, pathway' and Granny's house 'old cottage, granny did not own allot of possessions, her house was very empty because she sold all her stuff for crack'
- They described the mood of Goldy locks after she took her drugs 'funny, aloanating, spaced out' before she fell on the ground.
Our Group: The boy who cried wolf
- We described the atmosphere, we created a picture of the village the farmers house the pathway to the fields and the fields before starting our story telling.
WHY
To create a image of the surroundings for the audience to see in their head.
- They told their story and described it on the way, Goldy lock's Journey though the woods finding the attractive house, they described from room to room each actor told a room each and the stair way to the bedrooms where Goldy lock tries out the beds.
- It Started with a history telling of the night before, little red riding hood's mum's night out drinking and doing any drugs.
- They tell the journey from leaving the house to meeting the wolf and rabbit on the way and then entering the Granny's house.
- It was comical, adult humour, not really for kids.
Our Group: The boy who cried wolf
- We did not portray our characters apart from when the boy cried wolf, i called 'woof!' and the two other actors (Abi and Polly) moved towards me to show that villages came to the boy when he called wolf, and then they moved back to their places, the last time the boy cried woof and the village's did not come when there was actually a really wolf, the other actors turned on the spot, crossed armed and turnt back to show that the villagers did not come that time.
WHY
To add movement to our performance, it was pritty stand still talking, Abi and Polly coming over to me when i called wolf showed who they were showed chractorisation.
- One actor in this group showed character, as wel as telling the story and the other actors just told the story. There was no voice and body language changes.
- Each actor in this group had a character and they showed it well though their voices and body language changes and they told their own story bits in their character. Their was Little red ridding hood, but in this group they called her 'red hood'. red hood was portrayed as a teenager that did allot of drugs from early age, layed back, chilled. Little red riding hoods mother 'layed back mum, also did drugs, drunk allot, out allot, scruffy', The wolf was a 'posh wolf, pocket watch posh clothing, angry problems needed to take revenge on red hood for accidentally spreading her feces on him, he was high mentanas', the granny was dead in the back yard but due to red hoods drug taking she thinks the wolf is granny, she See's 'littlie old lady, curved back, need of walking stick', The rabbit was not shown much but he was 'happy, excitable, friendly'
Our Group: The boy who cried wolf
- The message of do not lye was clear to the audience
- We need to engage more with the audience
- We could get the audience to join in with the shouting of 'Wolf!'
- We could talk to them before telling the story like a panto 'Hello boys and girl', from us 'Hello' kids 'that was rubbish, i said Hello boys and girls!' from us, 'HELLO!' get them involved.
WHY
To make the performance more entertaining for children, children like to shout and get involved.
- we need to act it out next time
WHY
Not acting in a performance does not show chractor, not a professional performance.
- We need to create character, characters story, voices and body language, relative to the story.
- We need to use more of the 6 sense, prefabley all of the 6 sense
- smell
- touch
- hearing
- taste
- see
- mood
WHY
Adding all the 6 senes creates an imaginative picture of the story in the audiences mind, making it more exciting for them.
- we need to change the story line a little to make it more exciting like the other groups
WHY
A performance that is not intresting and boring is not worth watching, the audience will be bored.
- Think of ways together to make it more exciting for the kids 'panto like'.
- I think we need allot of work we need to change the storyline a bit, add characterisation, interacted with the audience, make it for children, make it fun and exciting. We need to use more of the 6 sense.
- The story line was clear 'Do not steal'.
- The description was strong that holl way though up to when the three bears came in, it built up so well to then and then the describion stoped, needs more describion at end when the bears come in.
- describe the mood of the bears how angry they are, the utter shock of Goldy locks when she awakes how scared she is
- The tension in the air between them
- The rush Goldy locks was in jumping out of bed and out the window.
WHY
To add up a build up towards the end, ending the story with excited audience, a build up that is dropped just before the ending is disipointing to the audience.
- It was good, it was well described it needs more description at the end.
- The story telling was uneakwold, one actor did not get much say and others had allot, needs to be made eakwold.
- Create a story for the rabbit and make the rabbit more involved maybe the rabbit could go with red hood to Granny's house for maybe red hood helped the rabbit out a trap, maybe after red hood upsets the wolf she helps the rabbit out a trap and tells her the wolf did it to her, hes got serious revenge problems, so its like a warning to the audience to excited them whats going to happen next.
WHY
The audience no nothing about the rabbit, me as an audience wanted to know more about this funny, bouney chractor.
Overall
- It was entertaining because of the adult humour about the drugs, and the emo teenager being red hood we all know little red riding hood to be an Innocent little girl so they changed little red riding hood completely, the posh wolf was another thing that was unexpected, the granny already being dead was dark, it went with the holl emo teenager, druggie family theme.
- It was not something for children to watch tho, it needs changing abit to make it suitable for children.
- Cut out the drugs,drinking and the dead granny.
- I don't think children would understand the emo theme to the family (emo red hood, mother).
WHY
Children are vunrobal, and can not be introducted to drink, drugs, vilonce and adult humor.
comparing the other two groups to others, we could learn from theirs to make our better. I think group three (Little red riding hood) was the best group because they made it humorous and fun, and all the actors had characterisation. Group two (Goldy locks) was the second better performance because used allot of the sense's they had allot of description within the performance built up the excitement for the audience but did not finish off as well as they started, it needs more description at the end and it needs characterisation. Our group has allot of work to do characterisation, more sense, excitement, involving the audience describing the surrounding as we tell the story.
