Week2:
At the beginning of the week we worked further on our singing because the main chorus in which I do not sing, was not very good therefore it was important we improved that. But to begin with we had to warm up our voices, we started by controlling our breathing through taking dead breathes for 8 to 10 seconds which helps when holding long notes in the song. We also worked on the short words we have to say in the song by singing songs with alliteration in it. I also stretched to make sure my body was in the right way to sing and dance. We started by singing the chorus all together, in our groups, which was very useful as the more times we did this the more people got used to singing it and started pick up the words. We then went through the whole song, giving out parts in the song for all the little kids in the song, I was not too sure about the parts they wanted me to sing because they were very high but I managed to hit the notes when we went through the song all together. I thought this week was very productive and the song got better the more we did it together and we all helped each other to achieve the parts we have done so far. I also learnt more about the character in the song and realised the little kids are very scared to begin with but then they become more confident as the song goes on and they are with the big kids. This was very good information because it will later help me develop my character in the song. My short term target is to work on the syllables in the fast bit of the song. My long term target is to work on the way I act when performing the song.
