I figure I can talk some about how the stuff we’ve been
doing in class will affect my character, Solyony, in Three Sisters. My initial
approach to the character was that he is “stiffer” than I am, which is a term
that was thrown around a lot by my high school drama teacher (who…was terrible,
but that’s not a story for this journal.)
I tried to pinpoint what that meant in Laban language, and I
believe it’s mostly to do with flow and weight. It’s a very controlled flow
with a little bit heavier weight than I normally carry myself. He’s an army
man, but a mostly sedentary one—he knows how to control his body, but he’s not
super strong or heavy.
I think overall he’s a wringer, but definitely a controlled
one. Contained? Maybe that’s the word we used. I’m really, really awful at
remembering what words go with what. I just need to get it in my brain better.
