Most people think that they compromise and mix things instead of
thinking out of the box.
Always argue/battle to create currency.
How quick am I to respond to obstacles.
Assignments
Composition: sign up for 2/3 of them, and perform at least in 3 of
them (required to perform in the one exercise you dont direct). 2 actors, 35 minutes. Pick 3 works of art and have the 2 actors move thorugh the 3
pictures at any time they have to see the pictures. It is a visual moving
piece, somewhere in there during the 3 to 5 minutes, you have embedded a
representation of the 3 works of art. No photography. ONE SOUND! Bring in
3 pictures, but you cannot show the pictures to the actors. One wild car
What is the intention other than the assiment what is your goal. Post
that on moodle. im working on emotional connection with the colors for
trusts, social polictical climate What do I hope to get? Get keys from
sterling if going first. The scene does not have to make sense.
Critique: Did you have pleasure? Did it keep your attentnion? What
did you like?
Action
2 people 3-5 minutes. Purposeful action. Clarity is the goal. Each actor
has an objective and 3 tactics towards that objective. Can you get an actor
to convey action? You can threatned ( do this or else) or induce (do this
because)..s
Rhythm
Contrast, sound, movement, no requirement on number of people, it
does not have to make sense, and the goal is to surprice the audience 3
times. Stablish a pattern to break it. Rule of 3. Make sure there is a rhythm
break every single time.
Last name date, go on moddle and sign up for 2 our of 3

Design elements: never create something that the imagination could
have created.
