Another Blog.. Cuz im a procrastinator

The history monologues wwas a battle that I never fought before. I always found myself to be more of a contemporary actor. But I learned quite a bit.. I still consider myself more of a contemporary actor but i found it interesting and definitely something new. I will probably love to explore that again.

What i learned from this was style, costuming and how and what you were effects both your style and the way you do your monologues. Style is very important because you dont know how or what will effect your movement unless you do your research also costumes are very important once you get the initial research done. Style is also very important because it makes it feel more real to you and if it feels more real to you, you will be able to convey a real piece to your audience whoever it may be. Same thing applies to costume. If you have a period piece with a modern piece you loose the illusion.
What I will ocntinue to do in future to do more research and wrok on trying to do more styling pieces. But the most i will continue to work on my research. In this piece i did a lot of reseacrh and really did an analysis that way i could get the language the way they interacted with other people and all sorts of different things. I really mean is i need to do more of an in depth analysis.

Thanks for listening
Jeffery
