This week we looked at the Nell and Antony scene, I had found it difficult at first because I was trying to find an energy or something similar that suited his character, we then experimented with trying to be like other people in the class, to see if that would take me away from being myself. Eventually we found that he was playful and naive, but deep down is worried about the coming events. After blocking the scene me and Charlotte looked at energy states for our scene we thought that maybe for Nell the bomb is in the room the whole time and she is bottling up what she is feeling, but Antony at this point is aware something is up, but is trying to cover it over until later in the scene where them bomb actually goes off.
After that lesson I had a look at different films during this era, just to see if I could find someone similar to Antony, but unfortunately I couldn't, most WW1 films had very cocky men, who didn't seem to be scared, but I think that Antony is scared but doesn't like to show it and makes jokes about things.
Later that week we looked at trying to say our lines in a believable manner, I first started to work with scene 3 it took some time because the scene it's self is very tense and to feed the lines in a believable way didn't work unless we tried to act the scene out. Also with the scene three group we looked at doing our scene in a faster pase, and also in the style of something, this helped to look at different ways of acting the scene out. We later did some freeze frames for different key points in the scene, which I thought could be a good idea for the prologue, if we had everyone in the key freeze frame for their scene, so it gives the audience a taste of what is about to happen.
