Title: Little Scarlet 1 “As an actor”
Word Count: 200 words (minimum)
As an actor how would you perform the role of Little Scarlet OR Little Scarlet's mother to an audience, in the scene where Little Scarlet's mother sends her out across the estate to her Grandmother’s house?
In your answer you should refer to:
• Emotion (How your character felt)
• Motivation (What your character wanted)
• Voice;
• Movement;
Give reasons for your answer


                                                     Little Scarlet
Emotion
If I was Little Scarlet I would be very sad because my mum is telling me to get out of the house and go to my grandmothers when I don't want to. Also I would probably feel depressed as it sounds like
she doesn't want me.
Motivation
As an actor I would show my characters motivation by crying and screaming. In my actions I will try to show that I want to stay at home with her and I don't want to go outside at 9 o'clock at night.
Voice
My voice will probably sound frightened but also really annoyed as I have to do something that I don't want to do.
Movement
At the beginning of it I would probably make it look like I'm sitting down on the floor as I'm playing on my phone as it set in the present. But to the end when my mum starts shouting at me I would be crying. I would have my hands over my face.

                  Title: Expectations in Drama
                  Word Count: 200 words (minimum)

Answer in depth using examples
• Which game or activity did you find fun or interesting last lesson? Give examples of what happened.
• What was the game meant to teach you about expectations, rules or skills for drama? What was the point? 
• What do you think studying drama will be like? What will be easy or difficult? Why?

                  My expectations in drama


The game I found most interesting was probably traffic lights because you had to listen to what was called out and you had to do it.For example if green was called out you would have to walk sensibly around the room but if bumped into some one your out. Red you had to stay dead still or your out and yellow was sit down were you are.and after all of that you can add new things.

The game was meant to teach us how to listen and also be aware of our  surroundings and things. Such as other people and equipment.I think for expectations it tells us how we need to move e.g quickly but smartly and as soon as Mr Watson says so. For skills it could be that we can reacted fast to the teacher says. The point of that game was not so we could have fun it was also a test of our listen skills and our reactions.

I think that studding drama will be really fun and exciting I think it will be quite easy but some parts may be hard. I think this because it is secondary school but I like acting allot. And also because its an arts and crafts school, it might make it a tiny bit harder but I am sure ill be fine.
