THIS IS DRAMA: SHORT CONVERSATIONS 2

Wellcome back to school! As you already know, you are going to perform a new conversation. It is important that you analyse how you did it last time. Is there anything that did not work? Is there anything that worked well? Take into account good and bad points to improve your performance this time.

Here you are the schedule with the deadlines you've got to meet and some pieces of advice about how to work on your project:

13/01/2011 Translation and vocabulary (Remember that a good translation implies transmitting the same meaning and intention of the original but with expressions that sound natural in the target language)

20/01/2011 Setting (When does the conversation take place? Where does it take place? What does the place look like? What type of props will your need to build up the scenery?)

27/01/2011 Characters (How old are they? What do they look like? What type of relationship is there between them? How are they feeling? What type of costumes or make up will you need?)

31/01/2011 Performance (Remember that showing emotions through gestures is as important as learning your part. It is not enough to learn the script parrotfashion. You have to understand what you are saying and listen to what your partner says in order to transmit something to the audience)

03/02/2011 Project (Take corrections into account when writing the final version of your project and do not forget that a good presentation is essential, including a cover page.)

Don't forget that if you want to improve your pronunciation, you can listen to the audio in the web address that appears on your script, or clicking on the conversation that you are working on here:
