POST #2: Evaluation of a Repetition Scene

Please watch THIS example of Meisner repetition exercise and offer a critique of how the students did.  In otherwords, pretend you're the teacher and note strengths and weeknesses of the students.  Since they're both girls, refer to one as Ms. Left and the other as Ms. Right.

Some "look fors":

1.  Maintained personal, honest, point of view when repeating  (didn't edit or repress responses)

2.  Observations were direct statements (avoided questions and deflecting modifiers like "seem" and "look like")

3.  Expressed true feelings or thoughts when "pinched" (didn't edit or repress responses)

4.  Worked-off of partner throughout exercise, listening and noting any changes (no "moments" were missed)
