Third blog of the day woop woop! I'm gonna be all blogged out by the end of this.
YESTERDAY! Thursday 30th September
So I woke up late and got to Uni half an hour late thinking it started half nine when in fact it starts at nine. Again, don't ask. I don't even know? Anyways I walk into class and see photoshop up and my heart cried a little bit. Me and photoshop = failure.
With Michael we're going to be "called upon to apply our creative skills to projects that assist in the development of our work - this could include marketing, administration, or graphic design". Yeah, I copied that off the sheet.
So yeah, in this assignment we're gonna have to design a poster for our performances on the 14th of November using Adobe Photoshop.
Michael went through a couple of stuff we could do with photoshop and made it all look quite easy and simple. He then told us to go to our computers and play around with it. So after being rejected by a few computers and finally logging onto one, I attempted to use photoshop and surprise surprise I felt like slitting my wrists (lol OTT much?). But it was a bit of a struggle, but by the end of the lesson I managed to make a bit of a picture blurry and ublur parts of it! Was quite proud of myself actually. But yeah, hopefully by next month I'l get the hang of it all.
After Michael's lesson we had Siobhan and did a mixture, of practical, and theory work. For the first hour and a bit we worked on our scenes. Our scene begins with Masha and her husband Kulygin. Kulygin is majorly inlove with Masha however a fire has just happened and her brother Andreyusha lost some money therefore Masha is ignoring Kulygin's lovingness towards her and is still a bit shocked about everything that has just happen causing her to be a little bit blunt to Kulygin.
We decided to work on that scene and fortunately Chris agreed to play as Kulygin. We all thought that Kulygin was around his mid twenties and is very comical and naive.
After working on our scene Siobhan got us to watch a documentary on Anton Chekhov while we wrote down notes. I found it highly beneficial. The documentary consisted of a lot of relevant information about his personal life, his plays, and how his life experiences influenced his stories and plays.
