How script is going

My group has been doing well so far. As a whole I think we work well together. We get along and fit our characters. I think that we are good at making the characters are own. Especially Bryn and Wiebke. They bring a lot of laughter to the scene, which has dark humor to it. They created this dynamic that is really great, and their lines are so different from everyone else's. It adds a different element. Adler and Taylor also do a good job of embodying their characters.

As an individual I think I need to improve on slowing down in my script. I sometimes talk to fast and speed through the dialogue. This causes confusion because then people don't know what I am saying. I struggle with this a lot, because I always talk fast whenever I talk. I just have to be more aware of what I am saying. However, I think I had my lines down pretty well, I just need to add more humor to them to make it funny. I was playing it more dramatic and it needs to be more humorous even though the scene is dark.

As a group I think we need to improve on filling the silence. There are a lot of awkward silences that are not funny and don't add anything to the scene. We need to fill them with lines that add humor to them. Also, I think everyone needs to project more. We are all quiet when it is on tape. However, I think this will change once we memorize our lines and become more comfortable with the staging. It is also important that we make things more clearer. There are certain areas of our script where it gets confusing. Like who is who and how we know each other. As

a whole we need to go through the script and add lines where they are needed. Once we do this I feel like our script will be greatly improved. 

I have not seen the other group go, because I was not there that day. But, I was able to read some of their script and see them practice backstage. It sounded good when I was watching parts of it backstage. I think that they need to become more familiar with their script as well from what I saw. But, they may have been more prepared the day they went. Also, I noticed they had good emotions going on in their script, which was very good. However, I think they have similar problems to my group.

Overall, I think our group is doing well, but there is room for improvement. I think it will come along better once everyone becomes more familiar with the blocking and the scripts. This way we can be more comfortable and change things up a little to make them sound better.
