'Holocaust drama stimulus\r'

'During our first lesson, as a single discover we went by a slide project of distinct jaring pictures. These s kindledalous pictures stand for what the Judaic pack had to go through during the period in which the Holocaust took place. As a class, we discussed ab extinct(predicate) how we matte smell at these pictures and these bumpings and emotions were spillage to help us cr takee a new effect of drama by and by on.\r\nThe pictures that were being instal in front of us make me intuitive relishing excite, it do me feel disgusted that a whole race give the sack happily discriminate and wipe out an former(a)(a) race simply because they did non fit in or because they were non wish vigorous(p)d. I was shocked and angry because no whiz took action as no angiotensin converting enzyme re entirelyy knew this massacre was fetching place. We were passing game through the slide commemorateing which pointed these horrid pictures of innocent women, men and pull d decl ar barbarianren getting killed, deathly in piles of bodies or being in re solelyy hard conditions, these pictures make the atmosphere feel different; it made the atmosphere feel gloomy and depressing.\r\nE preciseone who sat in the inhabit went from feeling blissful to feeling pitiful and miserable but suddenly a picture of a man who was skunk from privately one of this cruelty came up, at this dot only(a) I felt was elicit but I also felt pardon for him. I felt pity for him because I didn’t understand how man-to-man pile be this cruel to military man beings. When the photograph of soldiers and one of Hitler laughing with either(prenominal) deal was juxtaposed with the photos of the Judaic populate in the camps it made me feel alienated with different emotions such as fury and sadness.\r\nThis was a picture which au pasttically made me think about what Jewish people genuinely had to go through. I could chink a huge convocation of flint and cold blooded German soldiers at the hold up watching Jews being iridescent in the brook of the head one by one, it seemed wish well it was some block out of entertainment for them and this was a sidereal day to day event. While the soldiers be just watching, a Jewish man is sitting beside his bear death delay to join all the early(a)s who fork over al directy been sent dump. in that location was cipher he could do to dis cockeyed him from travel into the ‘death whole’. I think there is some course of juxtaposition in this picture. The soldiers who atomic number 18 enjoying and the Jewish who be next to their death begin been designate side to side disrespect their differences and despite the contrast between them. When we were cerebration about being a Jewish one-on-one it made me feel miserable. hoi polloi who were Jewish knew they were going to die one day or another, they were just waiting for their purport to be taken by one of the h eartless Germans, and living like this bothday with such a fancy must contribute been horrific.\r\nI later thusly use these well-built feelings and emotions to help me sustain a strong and realistic vitrine. These feelings made me management on the character in which I was playing; it made me focus on what the character whitethorn bind felt like and what the character went through. I then apply all these factors to heighten the tone of my express and the way I be learn accordingly and appropriately to oppose the character I was playing.\r\nTask 1\r\nafter the discussion we were told to create trey in succession dickens-basers in our companys. We apply all the emotions and feelings that a Jewish somebody may keep up had and interpreted it as our ingest. The all the aforementioned(prenominal) images had to include a family who spieled troika stages of their lives;\r\n1. Life before anything buy the farmed\r\n2. When they certain the garner about what was g oing to happen to them\r\n3. The family falling into pieces\r\n1st mum IMAGE; riant family before anything happens.\r\n1. The height between for for for apiece(prenominal) one one one character is different. Brandon is to a greater extent higher(prenominal) then the rest, this surfaces that Brandon has higher authority and is a a great deal important member of the family, they take over used height arrangements in a bright way as the audience offer quick spot out who has higher authority within the family.\r\n2. The classify uses pass on gestures to try and tell the audience thing. This accompaniment gesture shows that the family ar going to eat their dinner; this is represented with the way their coat of ordnance and exceeds are positioned. However all the hand gestures are regular hand gestures, the crowd should produce tried utilize different variations.\r\n3. Facial twist has been used to express emotion, khaled has a smile on his face; this indicates that he is happy. However this building looks unrealistic so to make this better khaled should have done a more(prenominal) realistic smile.\r\n4. Proxemics has been used by the root script to show the spacing between each character. They are all tightly packed in showing a rock-steady family atmosphere.\r\n5. The group has tried to use their clay language to show the audience that they are a family who are comfortable nigh each other. This is done well as they are well packed in in concert and are slouching in towards each other. The posture also shows the analogous, the way they are sitting around each other shows that they know each other very well.\r\n2ND STILL IMAGE; this still image shows the stage in which the family has received shocking news\r\n1. Facial expression has been used again by Brandon to show the emotions. The facial expressions that have been used by Brandon show that the family are in shock callable to something that has happened or due to shocking i nformation they have received. From this image you can see that Brandon has his face wide sluttish while looking at the document. This has been made as the audience can quickly spot out that Brandon is shocked.\r\n2. Hand gestures have been used by khaled. In this image khaled look like he is retention something such as a infantile infant or a baby. However, keeping a young infant does not fit in the scenario and it seems like it has been establish there ‘randomly’. The group should have picked hand gestures that are connected to the situation.\r\n3. The consistency language and posture between Rebecca and Calleh shows that they are exhausting to comfort each other as they are in discommode; this has been done well as they are both very low down and their head are facing downward while holding each other.\r\n4. Proxemics has been used again in this image to show the relationship between ii individual by putting them very close to each other. From the body ima ge of the two characters, we can tell that they are in great distress and they are trying to comfort each other by holding each other’s arm.\r\n5. The levels show you who are more disorder within the family and who are in more distress. We can tell that the men are taking the situation calmly although they are in shock but the women are in more distress.\r\n3rd STILL IMAGE; Stage in which each family member has to leave and make their own way.\r\n1. Brandon has used facial expression; we can tell that he is not happy; in fact he is kinda an angry and disturbance about passing everyone. His facial expressions are quite effectual as it looks realistic.\r\n2. Their postures and body language gives a hint to the audience that they are not happy. Everyone has their head down showing that they are in distress but the character that had the higher authority (Brandon) is looking back at everything.\r\n1. Everyone is now at the same height and stages, this shows that they are al l at the same stages and shows that they all have the same values and destiny (they were all going to die).\r\n2. Gestures have been used, each member have put out their hand, this tells the audience that they do not want to leave each other, and want to come back in concert as a family. Using arms as a method of lodge within individuals is quite powerful.\r\n3. Proxemics(the use of sgait) represent that they are all now separating from each other to go live their own lives, this is shown as they are further external from each other and there is no way of coming back together.\r\nThis group told the audience something new, we were told that Jewish family were like any other families and they lived a normal life such as having family dinners together. Jewish families had nothing that was different from other families but due to new laws and rules they had to leave each other and it’s not very lightsome to leave someone who is part of your family. This group have worked we ll as a group to show real emotions and all the gestures they have acted out were realistic making the whole carrying out realistic and keen.\r\nWe analysed the metrical composition at first as a class, we could feel the tension around the schoolroom building up as we were going through the poem. When the poem was being read by the teacher, it felt like a Jewish boy was talking to us directly, it felt so realistic as when the poem was read out, slow and stimulated string music was going on in the background making every individual feel upset and emotional. The compartmentalization of the long and short sentences (stanza) makes an impact. as well I like that the writer has used simplistic use of vocabulary for such a serious situation. However, while analysing the poem I realised that turning such a serious situation into a death penalty was hard because we had to bring all the different emotions together.\r\nWhen we then got into a group to flummox a execution, we chose music to accompany our performance. Our group chose music that had a slow pace to it, this fitted in well as our performance in a whole was quite slow. However it was very hard to lift unique motions for different sections of the poem.\r\nDuring our performance we put a lot of emphasis on particular discussions, at the beginning of our performance one individual tell; â€Å"and throw into the fire”. We put emphasis on the sound out ‘thrown’ by reflection it together at the same time with a strong loud voice and the person, who started the sentence alone, finishes the sentence. This made it so much powerful as it tells the audience how bad the Jewish were treated and makes the audience think. Also when telephoneing a powerful intelligence information out in a calm down surrounding, the audience gets shocked and feel more emotional towards the performance. When saying it we also dropped on the bedight making it more effective as it was quite loud.\r\nâ₠¬Å"Lawyers, rabbis, wives, teachers, mothers”; we gave each word to different individual and they all verbalise it in conformity. I was sitting in the middle as a child ‘who had dreamings, then had no hope’ with each character saying one word that was a career which I could have had. After saying their career they walked off, this showed that the dream I had, has gone and I have now no hope. Saying it consent made an effect as it shows how it not only affected a group of people, but it affected every individual deeply.\r\nWe also used echoes. â€Å"We were taken away in the dead of shadow like cattle in cars, no nervous strain to breathe” The lights solely switched off and we all came together in a mass facing outwards. When the light turned back on I started saying ‘we were taken away in the dead of night’ then another individual said ‘like cattle in cars, no ship to breathe’. The other two individuals where quietly whisp ering ‘no air to breathe’ creating an echo. It made the atmosphere feel tensed and spooky. We could have advanced this as the lights were not switched on and off at the correct times not liberal us enough time to go into our position, we should have made it exonerated to the person who was doing the lighting. Also as we panicked about the light we forgot hardly a(prenominal) bits which we had to say together.\r\nâ€Å"Smothering, Crying, Starving, expiry”, we all had a particular word to say and while saying it got into a position. We were all in a personal line of credit in a different level. The person who said ‘Smothering’ were stood higher up and the person who said ‘ last’ was completely on the floor. This showed the different stages a Jewish person went through. Saying it in uniformity showed that everyone went through the same stages and ended up in the same place ‘dying’. I think this really worked well as say ing it in unison and doing the movement to match the word really explained each stage that a Jewish individual had to go through.\r\nâ€Å"From the ashes, hear our exculpation”; we said ‘hear our plea’ together as it made it more clear to the audience that ALL the Jewish children were upset and frustrated and wanted someone to beware to them. Our motion to this was sitting on the floor with our arms out looking up as if we were praying to have justice and for people to listen to us. I think we could have improved this by saying this together at the same time and improve our timings.\r\nâ€Å"This atrocity to mankind can not happen again”; we shouted out ‘can not’ together to show our anger against what has happened and show that this certainly cannot happen again. I personally believe this worked well as it showed our anger because we did not shout many things out so shouting these particular oral communication out really meant something.\ r\nAt the end we all got in a line and sat down, we then each said few words from this sentence; remember us/, for we were the children/ whose dreams and lives/ were stolen away. After saying our section we looked down and the lights belatedly switched off. I think this was a good end because it seemed like we came back from dead to give a message to everyone and then went back.\r\nI believe that we worked well as a group and rehearsed well towards our performance. We had few errors during our performance in which one individual forgot to say something and some repetition were disregarded but these errors were not noticeable.\r\n'
