I am Jaycob,I honestly don't know what i'm going to be in the future,i'm just hoping i'll work hard enough to be successful.What i'm seeking from this class is being able to work with others and see things in whole new perspective that isn't my own,because if this is going move me towards my goal I might be able to finally understand what I want to to be.

Yo! What is up everyone! Its your boy Jay here and back again. BTW I prefer you guys Jaeger now. Anyways this week so AMAZING,I was about to express some of the feelings I had left and it felt pretty good,to be honest I mean we were just miming,but it made feel good performing.My group and I were doing a tragedy,and for my first performance I think I pretty great,on stage and rehearsal, the people I working with were amazing and they sure know how to make me laugh hard,which almost made me broke character in the performance,but luckily I didn't. For the rehearsal process,it was fun and made feel forget the problems I been going through recently. And being about mime out a tragedy really helped me get some of the overwhelming feelings out of my system. I loved the people I was working with,and I cant wait to perform with them again soon :)

Please consider your monologue... what are you doing to prepare yourself for the performance? How are you going to bring physicality to your character? Also, what specifically would you like feedback about for your performance?

I honestly haven't gave any thought on how I can perform. I mean my character has an a lot of internal conflict on his mind but it wouldn't hurt give it try,right?^^ And if i'm able to understand my character more then I can't wait to perform.

Hey,its Jaeger,so i'm about to bring up the experience I went through performing the original monologue I wrote. So I spent a full on writing my monologue,trying to make this short story have some meaning,so people can feel the emotion my character was expressing. There was a couple of days were I would try to act and express the emotion myself,and the students in my class barely gonna have a chance to read this blog,so why not be honest.I put so much effort to try to stay in character and express all the emotions I needed to express.In instead of receiving praise from the a good friend,he does the opposite,and that's enough to where i'm at the point of anxiety. Well that's me being honest this experience gave me anxiety .

I'm sorry to here about the nerves you experienced. Hopefully you learned too though that you're able to perform through that anxiety. That experience should come in hand with things like interviews. You were a bit difficult to hear. How can you be expressive of meaningful emotions while still being loud enough for your voice to fill the room? Your text was well crafted and dynamic, yet your vocal pacing and inflection did not ride those same waves of dynamics. Keep up the hard work!

Hey its your future you talking, and I'm here to tell you that to be honest you did better than our own expectation,good job, and the set design was pretty great I mean for our first model we did pretty well.* Future high five* but anyways I felt good about it, well besides some the other presenters were a bit cringy. Either way,everyone did good, and I hope thought I did good too.
Bye

Hey,people its Jay here telling you guys about what experienced being part of a puppet play. I pretty much had an amazing time with my group with working,rehearsing,and even making my puppet, Papyrus. And just to let who ever reads this, that me and Papyrus are two different beings with different personalities.As some people saw at his debut performance "The Bridge Jumper" he did great. But I'm getting off topic by talking about Papyrus.To be honest when I doing the puppet play actually having the chance to feel like a puppeteer, it felt good on my part, with manipulating,acting and voicing the puppet,I felt so much joy. And hope that Papyrus and I was able to make the audience laugh and smile.
So i'm ending today's blog,and I'll talking to you Later!!!
BYE

I like your enthusiasm as the wall, but work on projecting your voice to sound more confident and clear.

Hey,person reading this.Recently my group and I had done play called "Mid Summer Night Dreams" and being apart of it was just fun and amazing,like wearing costumes that our characters wore. Through my perspective on how I saw it, at first I thought I was gonna crash and burn,but I was able to remember most of lines and felt great,even though I was Wall. But I was pretty good for a wall,right?
