Today we started the day with our FS Maths exam, that Miss Hoad had forgotten about so our day plans were in desperate need of change.
Once our exam was finished and we had calmed down we started of with our presentations on 'Documentary' that we had prepared last week. We then had a visit from Mr Stapleton from Brune Park who was checking up on us and Miss Hoad's teaching. Our presentations were coming along fairly well but I still need to slow down my voice and stop talking at 70mph. Miss Hoad has made us stop our flaws in presentations by making us more aware of our physical presence when doing it; the giggling, the hands-in-pockets, the eye contact, the rushing...
We then moved on to creating names and logos for our production companies. The other group is called 'Constellation' and ours is called 'Elastic Bandits'. Our logo is based around a superhero teddy bear who is flying with a cape on in front of the world, this is held together with elastic bands. We discussed the meanings behind our name with Miss Hoad and explained to her about the hidden meaning of our name, that it was funny and cheeky but with a serious undertone.
We then began to start thinking about our documentaries and began to give our roles to people within our group. I then had to leave at lunch to run a drama workshop at Wicor Primary School with some year 4 students for my Bronze Arts Award portfolio. It went really well, and there are some really good actors/actresses in that group.
At the end of the day Ryan apparently demonstrated to everyone else how to use the tripods and camcorders that we will be using a lot over the upcoming weeks.
