APPLAUSE FOR YOU!!!!


Just a post to say GREAT JOB on our Hamlet production. Shout outs and kudos go to lots of people, but ESPECIALLY the following:

PERFORMERS
First off, those of you performing have been AWESOME! Performers have given up their entire enrichment periods on the blue days BEFORE each shoot to block each Act. They've come up with costumes, memorized lines, rearranged the script when someone is absent, and have done an amazing job overall during the shoot.


SETS AND CAMERA PEOPLE
They have not only taken pictures for sets and brought various props on short notice, but they are now running the cameras and giving up enrichment to edit the film and record the music.

MANY OTHERS of you working on different portions of the project have also contributed greatly as well. Thanks especially to those who are not only working nonstop DURING class, but then are also giving up enrichment time for the project as well.

Obviously, if we did this again there are definitely things we would do differently, but that's the way it works when you're "pioneering" a project. At the end, I will survey you all for suggestions. Of course, I already have a list of changes I would make; however, your input will be extremely valuable.

SPEAKING OF "THE END," it has been suggested that we celebrate the end of this project with another "feast." If everyone so chooses, we can set up a day to have "feast round 2" in the cafeteria.

I WILL POST AGAIN OVER THE WEEKEND REGARDING NEXT WEEK'S CLASS ACTIVITIES.

THANKS AGAIN FOR A GREAT JOB!
