Pamphlets

I saw my face on the MOWCAS pamphlet today. It was kinda weird seeing my face on it. It hasn't really hit me yet that i'm on the front cover of it. Rad pic though. Yesterday and today was the whole 'Get into it, explore your scripts' session. Yesterday went really well, I got a lot of tips and new ideas as I kept playing around with the script. I've started to over-exaggerate EEVVVVEEEEERRRYYYY GEEESSSSTTTTUUUURRREE so that I can bring it down from this point on. Feeling quite confident at the mo... REALLY EXCITED FOR THE 5 DAY INTENSIVE............................................................................................................................................




Anyway today I learnt a Cook Island song that I am singing before the film of Mary called 'Imene Takeke.' The exciting thing about it is that i'm going to use my grandaddies hand-made ukelele from Rarotonga which gives the more tropical, vibrant sound, but until then, I am stuck with my cheap, but very much loved, Milo. The song is about farewell and also links in to the idea of a new voyage; a journey. The link between the film and my memory. I'm excited to explore my roots and sing a cultural piece :)


CONGRATS STAGE CHALLENGE 08!!!!

Just had a coffee, so i'm a bit hypo. As I was doing my piece, the memory became more and more distinctive and I could really feel each character. I wrote a quote on my script that I made up.

"Journey is a traffic jam. You go smoothly for a fraction of the ride, at a speed of 50k, then you pick up the pace as traffic clears at 100k then all of a sudden, you are forced to slow down to 20k... 10k... Until eventually, you stop. You wait patiently, fustrated, angry until you find a way to weave in and out of the traffic until you enjoy a smooth ride again."

GOD I'M GOOD.
Night :)
