Today in lesson we worked on telling stories to selected age
ranges and not just little children. We spent our lesson practicing telling
stories to little children again as a warm up but then was given a select age
rang and type of person like men at a bar or a group of teenage girls at sixth form
we were also only allowed to use our diction and not any gestures or movements.
We were allowed to say any part of a story as long as what we said would keep
the interest of our target audiences given to us, we then had to try and tell
the story but we could anything we wanted to tell the story except our diction
which made this much more difficult task. This exercise was also different as
one of us was now in charge of deciding what we said was suitable for our
target audience, this helped us to not only practice perform to our target
audience but also to identify the key traits of performing to our target
audience by watching others perform which will improve our own audiences. After
this we then worked on this again but this time with one long story that our
audience for would keep changing so we would have to adapt our dialogue to the
new audience, this became harder due to the constant change of audience and a
new rule saying u must wait for 3 people to tell the story before I could speak
again. Finally we then had to try and tell a story that was designed for an
older audience but to little children in a way that wouldn’t tell them the mature
content but still the story like if “someone was killed”, we would say that ”a
person forced someone to have a long nap”. We all had to try and say similar
things to this but in the way that was suitable for our audience of little
children
