Jester'z Games Class Report
Apr. 5th, 2005 09:12 pmI was going to use
seeshellirun's report structure, but it doesn't seem terribly appropriate since there wasn't a lot of good in the class today nor anything particularly memorable.
Let's just say that everybody was off their game today, myself included. I don't know if it was the pressure of being moved up to L3 (in-training) suddenly or what, but the energy was just off. The nice thing is that Jef emphasized that the class was about getting the structure of the games into our heads, and he wasn't so much focusing on improv skills.
Still, I felt pretty moronic up there today, like I hadn't ever been on an improv stage before. My compatriots agreed - it was just an off class. Hopefully, Saturday's L2 class and next week's Games class will be better.
As for myself, I really need to work on building a connection with my cohorts. Too often I'll just assume they know what I'm thinking and go off, which is unfair, especially since I'm supposed to be working with what they're thinking, too. Also, holding back on the urge to kill a certain fellow improviser gets harder all the time.
Anyway, next week should be better.
