2.  Voice projection  I think this is my best dramatic skill because I am very loud and clear and I can enunciate my words.

3.  Staying in character  I found that in the beginning of the year I was having trouble keeping a straight face and staying in character.  I find that if I just focus on my character and not pay attention to anyone else I can concentrate more and not smile so much. I also found that if I looked at the audience and if I paid attention to them and what they were doing then I would laugh at what they were doing and not What I was.

4.  Improvisation  I find that I have difficulty improvising. I usually like to just stick to a task or script or something and when something doesn’t work I just get all nervous and feel really embarrassed.

5.  Working on my dramatic skill helps me learn because if I pay more attention to my character then I pay more attention in class.  By focusing on the skill I need to develop I can develop it faster because I am focusing on it and trying to achieve my goal.
