Improv

Today after Luke's long interactive lecture on the mono myth of the hero we did some improv. At the end of class Luke said I had a good moment but I didn't really see it. For improvisation in general I feel that I am too lost in my own head thinking of one or the other: character or lines. In my experience from today I had done two different things for two separate improvs. The one with Peter and I focused on trying to say lines and not have a block, but the one with Kadambari I was so focused on my character that I at one point I didn't even know she was crying. I am going to try and have to figure out how to get a happy medium.

  1. So, this is a log post I think.

    It's really good that you've figured out you're in your head a little too much. Now, remember you won't be able to think yourself out of your head. You can only SENSE yourself out of your head. Does this make sense? Let's continue this conversation as a thread. Write back.

  2. I think I understand what you are saying, is it that I am never going to be able to get out of my head but simply have an awareness of what I am doing?
