Comparing Artaud and Grotowski

-
  Rewatch the Artaud and Grotowski videos from the Five Truths. Compare them and think about the ways that they are similar and different and how they create TEAM in each version. Use as many specific details as you can. 450 words. Due before class. When analyzing the Five Truths interpretations of Artaud and Grotowski, both interpretations aimed to jar the audience with several close up camera angles and indirect dialogue. In the Artaud scene, the scene starts off with the sight of Ophelia through a fishbowl. This makes her face appear slightly distorted and blurry because of the water. This also gives the effect that her movements are nearly in slow motion. Despite the distortion, Ophelia’s facial expressions are somewhat clear: She has a quizzical, nearly angry expression, as if she is scrutinizing the fish, possibly angry at them for existing. This suggests many things; Ophelia could be mad at the world, which is represented by the fish bowl and the fish, or she could see her...

Five Truths: Stanislavsky and Brecht

-
The Five Truths scenes using Brecht and Stanislavski were very different scenes. Starting off with the Stanislavsky scene, the first thing that I noticed from the very beginning of the video was the lighting. The main character Ophelia opens the scene by lighting a cigarette. The cigarette glows orange as the main source of light, though there are likely also dim stage lights so that the audience can see Ophelia. Ophelia uses her hand with her cigarette to turn on the lamp that sits on the desk. When the light turns on it too gives off a ‘warm’ yellowish orange glow that is nearly the same color as the light of the cigarette. Now that the set is a bit more illuminated, the audience can now see the desk, it’s contents, and Ophelia’s heartbroken expression. Ophelia’s movements in these first couple seconds seem natural and organic, as anyone who was not acting in a scene would do the same. Her movements after this are very slow and deliberate as she opens the bag containing her father’s ...

Pipeline Notes

-
 - main character: Nia, single working class mother, 'on the edge' --> trying to parent her son and save him from the "school-to-prison" pipeline          - exhaustion: physical, mental          - strained relationships with her son Omari, ex-husband Xavier, possible relationship with Dun?          - Use of poem - "We Real Cool..." by Gwendolyn Brooks                   --> school to violence or crime, to death  - discrimination and racism?  - public school vs. private school education, assimilation --> Omari feels he will benefit more by being around people who have the same background as him  - the use of silent moments, intense looks (the ending)  - what is Jasmine's role in the play? Her character seems a little bit unnecessary  - Jasmine and Omari relate to each other, from the same background  - Omari feels like his...
