Bonjour a tous! today, (Tuesday 10th) we continued the THEME of SIGNS. So as I said before, signs are something that represents something else for someone. In a play, we need to take care about the material signs that are shown to the public on stage. We use a code to interpret the meaning of a sign. A text is a group of signs. So we interpret a sign, but understand a text. We use a convention to understand the sense of a text and so, the conventions are fixed. In fact, the ultimate sense of a text is percieved by the audience or reciever.
As artist or actors, ou
r job is to give different possibilites for the audience/ reader to give a sense to a text presented. Finally, we looked at the three types of signs. The first one is called Iconic (icons) which are similar or resembles the "something"; then we have the Symbolic (symbols), they have an arbitrary relation with the "something"; and finally the indexal (index) which suggest the idea of a something (for example a bad-smell suggest that the "something" is dirty...felipe! bañate oe!(you will get that later))
When we finished the sign stuff, we moved on to .. dun dun dun... THE HOMEWORK. Remember that the last class we presented our objects? well now... we have to present ourselves to the class (for the 4th time I KNOW!) so we had the last 20 minutes of our class to plan it. At the end, we all shared with everyone what were our difficulties of this exercise and how do we felt about it. As a result, we all agreed that it was difficul to link all the object in order to present the person that you are now. In my case, I think today ....Diego = Childish so .. my theatrical performance (the fancy name given when people attend or there is an audience present) will be ******** I cannot tell you!!! you'll have to read thursday's post to know :P sorry
Ah! I almost forgot! there are 2 things that were f******g awesome! the first one is the QUOTE oF THE DAY AWARD, and today it goes to miss Sandra Morales- Macediales! and she said "robertito, sabias que (felipe) se va a bañar en el colegio porque no tiene agua en su casa?" out of nowhere, I know...but is was funny, and he knows we love him! evern robertini laughed, and the other thing is *WARNING* that felipe farted :P loud ... and as you may know... when someone farts... I laugh ..until I cry... so It was funny!!! I hope you learned about signs and texts today!!! Can we manage to master the SIGNS before the school play of this year?

ReplyDeletewe are always using signs, the thing is to be aware of the signs we are using and to do stop doing it in an innocent way when we prepare a performance, but rather knowing the possible effects of everything we do on stage
