  2 Days, 16 hours, the film course is now complete. Things were more challenging today as Jeanne gave us more difficult scenes to work on today.  Each of us did 2 scenes today, 1 monologue and 1 with a partner.  The best thing about today is to watch my friends work on their scenes.  I have seen some of my friends work when we are working on the same film.  But it is a completely different experience to watch your friends work on scenes in a classroom setting.  The difference is that we talk about our choices after our 1st run-through, then we get some feedback from Jeanne, then we do the scene again.  We get to share with each other how we work as we try out different suggestions from Jeanne. 
  
  I learned much from watching my friends perform today. I was really impressed with everyone's performances, particularly Race's scene with Andrew.  That scene was amazing!  Grace's scene with Daniel was also very fun to watch! 
  
  I am really happy I took part in this course and would recommend this course to anyone who is interested to learn more about acting.  Jeanne is a wonderful teacher and it is obvious to me that she teaches acting in a way that empowers you to have more confidence in the choice you make for your performance. 
  
  The OPEN course is going on this coming weekend and I encourage you all to sign up!  For what you learn, the course is really a great value and I am sure those of you who take the open course will get even more out of the experience than I did! 
  
  To my friends who took the course with me, thanks for a wonderful 2 days!  We really need to get together and work like this again!
