My favourite character in a movie happens to be Jack Sparrow from Pirates of the Carribean.What i like about him is that he has a certain trademark ,an originality of his own that he has and apply.Jack,like any other pirate,talks with a pirate accent but the way he say out his words differentiate him from the others.He uses a variety of tones when he talk and his gestures fits nicely with his scene and lines.It is cute when Jack runs as his arm swing and he runs like a small kid who just stole a cookie from his neighbour.Thus the way he runs when he tries to escape often made me feel jumpy and excited instead of the normal suspence i get.Hence the way Jack Sparrow acts as a pirate interest me thus he happens to be my favourite character from Pirates of the Carribean for his 'trademarks' which includes his way of talking,running and also gestures.

repost;the unseen
For the unseen topic,i find it something interesting and not really new as i remember learning the Literary Devices fo Literature Last year.But surely my understanding on the unseen is better than last year thanks to the Unseen Resource Book that is given to up this semester.It surely did help,with the examples given and the blank spaces for our own examples.We might be going slower than last year as we learn the literary device page by page but it surely did help me to digest most of the things inside my head.So now we have moved on from the page of unseen poetry to reading and analyzing unseen paragraphs.Overall i find the unseen to be something that requires a lot of thinking as the words and phrases used by a particular author are something that is 'deep' and full of meanings.Hence i realised that to make things easier for me,i have to have a wide knowledge of words so it can help me when the question ask me to elaborate.

R&J performance
the performance..
For my group we were actually done with the props but sadly,after we watched the video of the setting that we're going to be in,we actually decided to redo our backdrop.We started with meeting up each other at Republic Polytechnic last saturday to discuss about the backdrop.We have now decided to collect a whole lot of cardboards for the backdrop which actually help us save money for we still need to buy the paint for the backdrop.
Whereas for the acting,we have met up with each other to practice our lines.Even if some of us couldn't make it,we use the time to test the main roles' lines first and then discuss more about the hand gestures all.
Also,we have since discuss the dance,music and some of the movements in and out of the stage.However,there is still a lot of things for us to brush up on and i would use all the time we have to think of better ideas and also dates whereby all of us can meet.
