Blocking scene 1 30th September 2014

In todays lesson we started work on the play. We began with the opening sequence and scene 1. In the opening scene the baker and the bakers wife are in the bakery and we are to mime at curtain up us making the bread and general bakery things. In this sequence me and Bryleah really worked hard on showing the relationship between the two characters. By giving each other eye contact and stoping to take moments to look at each other and comfort one another. I think that this helps the audience understand the my character from the start.

In scene 1 i was told to show more of a relationship between my character and the bakers wife. in the section where the witch comes in we felt that my character should be more comforting towards her. Where the witch is telling us about the story of my father and mother.

On the underlined words this is where we decided to come closer as this is where the Witch puts a lot of emphasis on her words. On the soundtrack there are to beats where these words are so we have to work on our timings so that it all fits together. I think that this is a good opportunity to have some contact and bring our two characters together for the first time in the play.
