COMPULSORY TASK:

You need to complete 20 sides of your portfolio.  There are 30 sides in total.  

For the lesson write ups, use these headings:

Lesson objective

  • Research – This won’t be in every lesson write-up. Make sure that it’s relevant to the work being created.
  • Development - This is an analysis of what you did during the lesson.  Break down what you did in lots of detail.  (Make use of photos, even screenshots from rehearsals, mock tec).
  • Evaluation – You can include peer feedback, but you must include your own evaluation.

Next Steps

You should also include a write up of lighting, sound and staging and reference artistic intention frequently as well as including annotated sections of script.
