Class work

Today we peer assessed each other. I assessed Matilda and here is my feedback for her. Hopefully my feedback will enable her to improve and develop as an actor, focusing on the areas that I have mentioned for development. However overall she is in charge of her scene and if I have advised her to do something that she has purposely done to create a particular impact then she should carry on performing in that way as it may just be my personal  opinion of how I would carry out the scene.

Here I told Matilda what she did good and what I liked about the scene. I gave her a Merit as a performance grade because there were multiple things that she could improve from however she has improved since the first time she performed the scene and she is a very talented person that can act professionally whilst conducting a story to the audience.

Advice for Matilda, highlighting areas of improvement and how she can develop.

 I was assessed by Taffee, she gave me a lot of positive feedback and I also was graded at a Merit which I am very grateful for.

Taffee gave me some feedback including how I could improve.

I will try my hardest to address my improvements and strive for achievements in those areas. I will try to hold my ground and keep a strong posture however in parts of the scene I do feel like it is appropriate for Sephy to not stand so tall and strong as she feels very guilty and very much to blame throughout this scene. I will also make sure that I emphasize on certain words to create a greater impact as I believe it will make my scene stronger.

I love the fact that we were peer assessed as it is less nerve wreaking being told to improve on something by your friends then it is with a teacher that has years of experience (although their advice will probably be better). Also it's nice to hear what other people think of your scene, what they liked and what they perhaps didn't like and then you can try to improve on the not so good areas.
