Okay. So, today we're going to continue the acting skills that we've already been talking about. So, by the end of class, you will rehearse and you're going to perform your superhero committee audition and you're going to use intention, projection, and collaboration. Okay?
In the scene, you're going to be auditioning like we did yesterday in front of a superhero committee. And the superhero committee is going to decide whether or not you're selected as an official superhero. Okay? So, it's a rehearsal space today. Don't be nervous. Mistakes happen. I want you guys to just take a big swing and I want you guys to be goofy and I want you to have fun. Okay?
So, let's review our vocabulary. All right.
>> Intention.
>> Does anybody remember what intention is? I don't want you to read it off the board. Anybody remember what intention is? Yes, David.
>> The reason a character is doing that,
>> the reason a character is doing something that they do.
>> Very simply is what your character wants. That's intention.
Projection. Anybody remember projection?
>> Yes, Luke.
>> Loud. Loud. A lot of times we think we're being loud, but we're not. This is a very big classroom. There's a lot of us in here. So, make sure your voice fills up the whole room. So, projection is using a clear, strong voice.
And then collaboration. We've been doing this since day one, Ethan.
>> Working together respectfully.
>> Working together respectfully. Absolutely. So a lot of times whenever we're collaborating with each other, we might have an idea and somebody else might have an idea. But if we both have two different ideas, we compromise and we learn to work together. Right?
So our goal today is just to keep doing these skills that we've been working on. Remember, nothing has to be perfect. Okay?
So watch me for a moment. This is me with intention. If I come in and say, "I'd really like to sell that TV to you." What did I say?
>> I would really like to sell that to you.
>> Uh TV. You said Teemo. See, because I didn't project, right? And plus, I didn't have a real clear intention. Okay, let's turn the computer down, please.
>> I also didn't have a real clear intention. But if I say to you, "I'd really like to sell that TV to you." Voice was loud. I had clear intention. Right.
>> So that's what changed.
So, uh, can I get two volunteers? Two brave, brave, brave volunteers. What's that?
>> Two brave volunteers. Selvin, how about Selvin? You good?
>> Okay. Can I get two brave volunteers?
>> Two brave volunteers. Anybody?
>> Okay.
>> Okay. Alex. and then Ethan. Thank you.
>> All right. Table in the back.
>> Need you guys to pay attention. Okay.
>> All right.
>> So, I want you to give them a line. Alex a line and Ethan a line. So, what's Alex's line in one word? Just one line. You could say
>> a line you could say.
>> Yeah. Something very simple. One sentence. Chip.
>> It's a word.
>> How about "I love chip"?
>> Chip. A word or chip?
>> No, no, no. A line like we spoke about yesterday.
>> "I love computers." Okay. And then Jacob, what's a line that Alex can say?
>> What?
>> So Ethan's is "I love computers."
>> "I love computers." Your line is both "I love computers." Okay. So, Alex, I want you to say, "I love computers" as boring as possible and as quiet as possible.
>> Okay.
>> Good. Good. Now, I want you to say, "I love computers" with intention and projection.
>> Guys, I just love computers.
>> Good. Good. Good. Okay. Now, Ethan, "I love computers." And I want you to say it with no emotion.
>> "I love computers."
>> All right. Now, I want you to take that intention and be excited.
>> "I really love computers."
>> All right. Good job. Good job, guys. Good job. Good job. Good job. Go ahead and have a seat. Go and have a seat. Okay. So,
