Drama

In drama we have been learning characterisation walking lessons were we are exploring the idea of using the way we walk to develop character and feeling. The first thing that we had done was imagine someone who is really close and that we know really well and try and visualise how they walk and then we had to get up and act out there walk as if we were them, for me I had chosen my friend's walk as she is quite a confident person which is not like me at all.

The second thing as that we were called out what walk we should do and explain what mood we would be in, what emotion a feeling we would have, what person would walk like this, do we know anyone who walk like this and is there a character from a play or film walks like this.

So the first one we did was Direct Fast and Slow and I said someone who is in a rush, someone who wants to get things done, someone who thinks a lot, someone who is busy and has lots to do and this reminds me of one of my teachers Sean.

The second one we did was Direct Fast and Heavy and I said someone who is angry, someone who is feeling stressed and someone who is just annoyed and irritated by their surroundings.

The third one we did was Direct Slow and Light and I said someone who is giving up and is fed up of life, someone who has all the time in the world and someone who is walking down the street passing shops and talking to people or mates.

The fourth one we did was Direct Slow and Heavy and I said someone who's tired and doesn't care about anything and someone who is fed up of there own life.

The fifth on we did was Indirect Fast and Light and I said someone who is lost and doesn't know where they are going.

The sixth one we did was Indirect Fast and Heavy and I said someone who feels like they are a bigger and better person then everyone else around them and I thought this reminded me of a person in my secondary school named Max.

The seventh one we did was Indirect Slow and Light and I said someone who wanders a lot and someone who is light headed and in their own world.

The last one we did was Indirect Slow and Heavy and I said someone who is fed up at first and then as we got up to 10 I though someone who is drunk and mad.
