In this lesson we didn't do any performance based activities, it was all theory based. We was put into a group of 4 and we had to come up with skills that every actor needs in every stage of their career. Some of these stages were 'Auditioning', 'Performing' and 'Rehearsals'. Some of the skills we came up with can be seen in the photos below.

 

After we had completed this task we was then ask as groups to put all our ideas together so we would be able to take down any skills we did not currently have. There was some new skills that i took down like 'Ability to take criticism', this is crucial as an actor as you need to understand that not everyone is going to like your acting however you need to be able to improve your acting if it needs work, this is also called Constructive criticism.

Right at the end of the lesson we was given the task of researching some information about Brecht for our next lesson.

This lesson i have learnt all the necessary skills that are needed throughout the stages of an actors career.
