The Accident.
A few weeks ago, my acting academy couch Mrs Thomas has assigned us an assignment to do a scripted scene written by professional writers and perform them in front of the class in a week. So we chose our partners and scenes and got down to work. The scene that me and my partner (Dane Smith) were intriged by was a scene called "The Accident". This scene is about a spoiled repeat offender who has suddenly become a killer. In this scene she is talking to her lawyer about getting out of jail. But her lawyer isn't having it this time. This lawyer is the type of lawyer that always had her back everyime she got into trouble. But now that there was an accident involved, he wants her locked up for good. This causes conflict and arguement and the girl now terrified that she might have to be in jail for a long time because she has killed a mother and daughter due to drunk driving. Intense story line right? So today is game time. Presentation day. And me and my partner was chosen to go first in our presentation. I was REALLY nervous and I was not ready to perform at all. Me and my partner hasn't had the rehearsing time that we really wanted so that made me lose confidence during my performance. So we perform and it wasn't good at all. Well on my part. I was not prepared, and I blew it. But all I have is myself to blame because I didn't mentally prepare myself to perform in front of the class. I should of been more aggressive with my partner so we could rehearse more. So after the performance I was heading for the constructive criticism, which we got and deserved. But it wasn't the outcome that I wanted at all, so all I could do was be dissapointed in myself; so I bursted out in tears. It's not me to not take a performance seriously, and for this performance I didn't take it seriously because I wasn't prepared. As good as the script was, our performance could of been way better that how we potrayed it too the class.
