Movement project and silent movie

     Last week we did a really fun project which was called the movement project. For this project, we had to pick a piece of instrumental music and then perform it out with a partner. The piece of music I picked is called “Summer” by a Japanese musician. The thing that was easy for me during the movement project was to have good facial expressions, I knew what kind of emotional I should have during the performance. The thing that was a little bit difficult for me was to think about what movements we should have during the performance, and what ending we should have. Because I didn’t want to make the sudience confused at the end. My partner also did a great job, we had a lot of discussions on what movements we should do and how to make the project better. During the practice, we’ve changed a lot of details in order to make the performance more vivid.
     The thing I think I could’ve done better is to have more movements and more the performance longer. Because our final draft of this project was just barely a minute. I think it would be more interesting to the audience to have a longer performace. The piece of music I picked was really happy and relaxed. Like its name, it makes people think about summer when they hear it. So my partner and I performed as little kids that are playing together, which will make the audience feel interested and happy. The piece of music was also pretty rigoroso, so I wasn’t very difficult for us to add movements in it. I actually really enjoy the time that when we were performing, I was pretty into the character and I thought it was really fun.
     Now we are working on a project called the slient movie. I think the easy part for me is to find the pieces of background music that we are going to use, and it wasn’t very difficulat for me to think abouta a script. The difficult part for me is to think about the details of the slient movie, how are we going to let the audience to know what we want to express? We have to work on this more. All of my partners are nice and they all putting efford into the project. It think the background music will change depending on how the ploting is gonig to be, this is going to make the movie more vivd. I hope it is going to come out great!
