- Speak the sense, not the lines. Punctuation indicates pauses and such.
- More energy! Good pronounciation.
- Good pace! But try to have more intonation
- Emphasize! Bring the life in your lines
- Great monologue to choose, but could've used more intonation and rhythm to emphasize it!
Response to:
- I dont really understand what he/she meant. Speak the sense? I think theyre saying that I should speak whatever the lines actually mean, to actually add the feeling behind them, and understand what they mean...if that is what this person is saying, then I agree. I need to speak how it is written, and speak how it means as a whole. The punctuation point I also don't really understand either, what punctuation are they talking about? The punctuation already written on teh script? I think they meant that I should speak how the llines are written and enunciate where it is need, where it is meant for each word. If that is what this person meant, then I think I was already doing that...
- I DEFINITELY agree that I need more energy. I need to add the force and "Epic"-ness behind each word. I think I was just a bit shy and I don't really like being too loud in front of people, I seem to get embarrassed very easily. But I should definitely work on it, and work on adding more feeling. As to the pronounciation part, I think I was alright at the part also, I don't think my articulation or pronounciation were too bad.
- I guess that is another way of saying that I should add more feeling behind my words, more pronounciation, and louder pronounciation.
- I think this is just reiterating what the other points were saying, I need to add mroe life to my lines, I need to add more feeling.
- I like this response, because it makes me feel good about my monologue and is more constructive, saying something good and then something I need to work on. I know I need to emphasize, which I already know I need to work on. To work on emphasizing I think I should underline the parts of words that need emphasis and then use those underlined words to drive the point of the monologue through.
