Reflection 1.
5th February- 9th February 2024.
We learned about dance auditions, the difference between group auditions and solo auditions, we then started to learn a dance from the rock of ages.
My challenges are confidence and nerves mainly for the singing audition.
My targets are to be confident, to not be so nervous throughout the singing audition and to keep up with my corse work.
I will do this by learning my song practicing until it’s good enough and to have a positive mind set what ever happens happens if your voice starts shaking from nerves pretend it’s not, if you mess up then it’s not the end of the world, if people don’t like my voice I can still say I tired. And to do my corse work in any spare time I have.
This class has helped me develop as a performer by teaching me what to expect in a dance audition.
This is preparing me for the industry because it is teaching me about auditions so I now know how to be prepared and what to expect when I walk into an audition room it will make me feel more confident when going to an audition.
I have learned about the different kinds of dance auditions and how they run. I can use what I’ve learned for when I go to any kind of audition in the future.
Reflection 2.
26th February- 1st March 2024.
We have done scrapbook, worked on our acting scenes and songs, learned a dance and then we auditioned on Wednesday.
This class has helped me develop as a performer as it is growing my confidence and teaching me how auditions run.
This is preparing me for the industry because it has taught me how to be more confident and how to learn your script and dance in a small amount of time the way you would have to if you were in a real audition.
I have learned my lines and musical theatre style dance. I can use what I’ve learned at any point wether it’s in college, uni or an audition.
Audition reflection.
Wednesday 28th February 2024.
I think I did okay in my auditions. For the Acting audition I could have done better although I played the role of Greg who is a tough male, Instead of playing it the way he had, I made him a bit less tough and angry as I wasn’t sure how to characterise someone like him. So next time I could learn more on characterising his kind of character.
For the dancing auditions I think although I had the moves down and remembered them I could have definitely put more energy into the dance.
For the singing auditions I am proud that I actually did it because that is reaching one of my targets however I could have sang a bit better and my voice could have shook less.
