how to best perform your scene to highlight the specific literary elements and analysis you have identified

After recording the first draft, I realized that I should more talk and act toward the audience. Especially throughout my whole monologue, I rather talked toward Jacob or the other side, in which audience could not see my face clearly. From next time, I should face audience side, thus they can see my facial expression and feel the emotion from the character. Also Jacob and I both should more focus on expressing feeling on our voice, especially when it’s sad scene where little guy and mother know that Guy is dead. After watching first draft, I realized that Jacob and I sounded so normal that it didn’t really alert audience that Guy was dead. We should be more dramatic and surprise, showing our sadness and how sudden Guy is dead. Not only facial expression and gesture, but also voice tone would be very important to show characters’ emotion change. Because just through hearing changed voice, audience can realize if the character is sad, happy, surprised, angry or depressed. Furthermore, I should act more apparently when the mom starts decorating herself to prepare welcoming client. I should gesture more big and widely during changing cloth, putting make up and perfume, thus audience can realize her real job better, which is night woman. Also while I was dancing with Ivan, it was so far from the audience that the scene perhaps could not be highlighted. However, it is one of the most important scene where the son realizes her mom’s job. Therefore, maybe we should dance closer to the downstage so that audience can see the scene easily and better.
