Blogologues: Final Reflection / Performance Self & Peer Evaluation

I found the Blogologue unit very interesting because as a teen it is very relatable to what we see and experience on the internet and in real life on a daily basis. It was a lot of fun to make my awkward topic in a story. However, the awkward topic is very hard to act out because you have to be very obvious and you need a lot of acting skills, which I think I have not developed yet. Through out the process of creating this entire performance our group struggled to work and we always had someone absent on the day and this made it very difficult for our group to communicate and also made it difficult for our director, Ayat to make it a strong performance.

On the day of the performance we had Umar and Sunaira missing and we found out on the day of the performance. So, we had to cut their entire performance out, that made it difficult for our entire performance to flow properly. Also, the main part is that our transition bits were hard to do because from before we had acted the transition bits but because we had people absent they weren't very clear.

One of the parts I struggled with was that when Ayat started the show I was upstairs in the technical room I had to run down and I was put on stage this made me very nervous and I completely forgot everything but I think that part helped me make the performance awkward, and also, it helped the audience.
