HOW TO PRESENT YOUR PROJECT

Actors and actresses need to work on various different aspects concerning performance in order to make their characters real. It is not enough to learn one's part by heart and repeat it in front of an audience. And that is precisely what you have been doing lately. That is why you have had to think about the setting, the character's feelings and personality and so on...

Once you have finished and before the actual performance takes place, you will have to present this project in an appropriate way.

1. First of all, it is advisable to present it typewritten. In this way you will make sure that everything is clear and clean, and what's more, you'll be able to use a spell checker to avoid spelling mistakes.

2. There has to be a front page in which you'll have to write the title, the date and the name of the actors or actresses

3. Include an index.

4. An original version of the dialogue has to be included too.

5. Vocabulary work, that is, all the words and expressions that you had to work on in order to understand you text.

6. A Translation of the dialogue.

7. A description of The Setting.

8. A description of The Characters

Take into account all the corrections and remember it has to be the work of both members. If one of you is in charge of typing, the other one should revise every single word and sentence looking for possible mistakes or different and better ways of expressing an idea.
