Learning Log 7

I am the director,so i pretty much did not act.As a director,I think I was not the best.This is my first time being a director and I will learn every mistake I made.Some of my group members were not satisfied with my job,as i can't attend every rehearsal.I tried to explain to them I have a festival,my culture,it is Hari Raya,but they seem to not understand.But I must say, they really worked hard.Racheal,Teo Xin Yi,Joanne and Matthew should get the credits.
I think our performance was well, everything went well and everyone did a fantastic job.Juliet(Teo Xin Yi) cried after the performance but i really think she was fabulous.Romeo(Joanne) acted well too!Capulet(Mark) was terrific!His gestures and expressions was the thing that made him outstanding.Cousin(Racheal) was impressive!Tybalt(Matthew) was a total shock, he was not a hot-tempered guy,but his character was the total opposite.He shouted when he act as Tybalt,wonderful!Benvolio(Glenda) could be more expressive but 'he' did great!Nurse(Cindy) costume was great and her acting was better than I thought.Lady Capulet( Yi Jun ) was as graceful as a swan.Last but not least, Serving man( Yu Han ) , for this role,you need someone who have mastered the art of balancing glass wine, and he is the one in our group who has the skill.

I have learnt that being a director is not as easy as what i thought,Director is not the easiest 'role'.You need to have leadership skills.I'm having a hard time as I am a layback person,I do not like to get involve in almost anything.But I pushed myself to get involve in the discussion.Sorry guys for not having the best director.

I really would like to let my juniors to have this opportunity and have R&J performance.My group and I now have a strong bond that is , I don't know how to express it.But I really recommend this to my Junior.
