Acting Class With Diane

Today I had my first acting class in Burbank, with Diane Christiansen. Diane has worked with a lot of great actors and actresses, like Merv Griffen, Angelina Jolie, Corry Feldman, Wayne Newton, and Siegfried and Roy to name a few. I am taking the class called Biz kidz with about 10 other kids. The first thing we did in class was work on getting connected to the actor or actress that we were working with. Then we received a script that we practiced with our partner. After we felt we had enough practice we preformed the scene in front of Diane. The things she felt we needed more practice on was, eye contact,projecting out, and she talked about the fourth wall. The fourth wall is an imaginary wall in front of us. The fourth wall basically puts you in an imaginary box so that no one else is there except you and your partner. At the end of class she gave us a script for homework that we need to have them memorized before our  next class. I also need to set some goals that I want to accomplish as a actor and a mission statement. I am one more step closer to my hopes and DREAMS!!!
