It's been four months since starting my drama degree, so far the experience has been fantastic, from being high to being low, working with different people, learning my strengths and weaknesses.
I would say overall I need to improve my teamwork skills, I believe that in rehearsals I am positive and show willingness in helping with performance, however when it comes to the live stage show I can be selfish. During our naturalism showcase I had the responsibility of setting up the stage to support my piece of drama, however I did find it difficult to do this, I found myself consumed with my role as Nina in The Seagull, I found it difficult to channel in and out of my emotion which is why I insisted that one of my classmates should set up the stage. Reflecting this behavior has taught me I should be strong enough and willing to look after my own performance, I think it would show others and myself as a professional actor/team member.
I have also been reflecting on the community focus project, looking back now, I was good in rehearsals, leading the warm ups, helping with the devising process, however I did not contribute in any prop making, I did not help with any shopping for the restaurant's food. Considering I was only playing the jazz singer, performing three songs, I did have time to help organise props, however I did not contribute as much as I should of.
My punctuality needs to improve, to be on time is important, it shows responsibility, willingness and professionalism. After writing all this it is my duty to set myself this target of improvement overall in teamwork, this will only benefit myself as a person within the arts and outside. I want people to want to work with me as it inspires me to work with others.
One will only receive once one has given...
