Putting the elements into my monologue had mixed results.
Adding water gave me some cool ideas with pitch, and the idea of a fire growing
and gradually getting bigger helped me with pacing, but my monologue had
basically no place for earth (or maybe I just have no place for earth, it
really is my weakest element) and air wasn’t super useful in this case, but
maybe it will be later.
The rubber band thing was awesome—making it into a story was
really fun. Our group made ours into a western comedy, and it was one of the
most fun things we’ve done in this class so far. I definitely would like more
opportunities to do performance-like things in class using the stuff we’re
learning. That always helps me the best, since I’m super goal-oriented. Same
with dance; if I’m learning a combination for a song, I’m more likely to
practice the steps every day than I would be to do a random exercise.
