Ernie incredible illuciaciation video review



When I was watching the video, I think I didn't achieve the KPI 'respond fluently to characters whether I'm speaking or not' because I didn't react quick enough when Gabriele said 'Damn it, I think I've broken my leg' because when I replied I replied in a nonchalant voice and sounded like I was not focusing. However I think I 'understand and show character' quite well because when I was speaking I was a trying to convey a worried and panicked tone of voice which I think when through onto the camera.

Also, I think I achieved these two KPI's which are 'project voice audibly, regardless of character and emotion and articulate lines audibly, regardless of character and emotion' because I was using a loud voice shouting up to Captain Williams and I tried and conveyed a loud voice with the needed emotion in it. In contrast to this, I think I was bad at being able to 'control pitch and to show understanding of my character and role' because all the time I was speaking in exactly the same pitch throughout the entire performance and I only used projection.
To improve on this I will make my voice go higher pitched when my character is worried anxious or scared because naturally a voices pitch goes up when some one is one of the aforementioned words.

Additionally, I think that I have achieved the KPI which is 'stay fully in role even if there are mistakes or distractions' because I was able to stay in role even when Eleanor was a bit quiet so to stay in character I still shouted up to Gabriele so I was still in role be aside the librarian would be shouting up to Captain Williams on the mountain ledge. Plus, I think I achieved the KPI 'Show the objectives of a character through appropriate actions' because in the scene where Captain Williams get stuck up the ledge, I gesture pulling on the rope so Captain had plenty of line to hang onto while on the ledge to keep him safe. This would show I want Captain to come down unscathed and safe.

Finally, I think I didn't achieve the KPI 'Speak lines from a range of sources with understanding' but to achieve this I will remember my lines and understand the context  in which the lines are from other sources such as plays or scripts I am given and by doing this I will achieve this KPI.
