Actors Blog - What it needs to contain!

You will keep an actor’s log in the form of an online blog. It will need to contain;

• A clear record of the research you have undertaken
• Records and evaluations of the practical exercises you have done to develop the piece
• Annotated news stories and commentaries on You Tube clips
• Sketches and diagrams
• Detailed evaluations of the final piece and its artistic achievements
• Detailed evaluation of the level of professional execution
• Evaluation of the overall strengths and weaknesses
• A discussion about the future potential of the piece as a theatre product
