Now that you have performed and evaluted your performance as per the previous post, you need to document.
1. In a 'word' document list each composition (scenes of the performance - there were 6)
Scene 1 - OpeningScene
2 - Inside - The ArrestScene
3 - Outside - The First ExaminationScene
4 - Outside - The WhippingScene
5 - Inside - The CathedralScene
6 - Outside - End
2. Under each composition expand upon the action in the scene. If your were in the scene outline your specific involvement. If you were not in the scene indicate that you were preparing for the following scene.for example:
The Whipper
Thematic Summary: (indicate what the overall scene is trying to achieve)
Notations:In the opening scene I was centre stage in the middle of the cultural precinct. Already in position as the audience moved into the performance space I was using energy level seven. crouched down on the centre boxes with three other performers. Music faded out and lights went to a blackout indicating the beginning of the performance. Lights up, music, still frozen on the block two bodies make there way out from behind the black theatre curtains Upstage Prompt and O.P as they fumble through the darkness (like stepping on glass) my cue is then to stand and turn quickly as the ' spider' fingers crawl from under the theatre curtain Upstage Centre....etc....
***MUST BE THIS LEVEL OF DETAIL ***
3. Ensure you include any scripted text you spoke or was spoken.
4. Include a diagram - layout of the cultural precinct and the courtyard area to indicate movement.

Now we need to finalise all the documentation and marking. The first thing I want you all to do today is EVALUATE your OWN performance from last night. Be honest, but also be positive about yourself...maybe a friend can help you if you can't think.
Please do so in the following way:
1. Using a scale from 1 - 5 (5 being the best) rate your performance on the four core principals: Energy, focus, self awareness, group awareness.
2. How 'convincing' were you in the role/roles you played? Did you shape each role to its full extent?
3. How did you use your voice? Evaluate your volume and projection, the vocal tone or resonance, its appropriateness for the character and moment of the compostion, and clarity and articulation - were you clear?
4.How did you use yor physical skills? What did you do with your body that was 'extra-ordinary' for the audience? What risks did you take? How did you interact with the group and the audience?
5. What, if any, feedback did you get from your family/audience about your performance and the show in general.
