Well, as I'm sure most of you are, I'm starting to feel the pressure now. At the beginning I thought '12 weeks, loads of time' but after reading through the handbook and discovering we basically need to have the whole thing drafted by the end of the month in order to get feedback, I started to panic slightly.
Feb went by in the blink of an eye, I spent the majority of this time researching my inquiry topic. Books were being delivered on a every other day basis, I had to organise and promote a focus group session whilst trying to get hold of every actor I no in order to complete my field journal.
Yesterday I managed to send off my first lit review draft which has a word count the size of the entire evaluation section, so I'm sure that's going to need some serious condensing, and today I'm meant to be getting to work on the analysis but its so sunny, I don't want to do work :(
My social life no longer exists and I'm already wondering/dreaming about what on earth I'm going to do with myself when this is over?! I might actually have time to paint my nails,or go to the gym, or see my friends.....!!!!
That being said I've really enjoyed the research part of my journey. My focus group was a great success and I met some really nice people in the process. I've made some interesting discoveries about my craft and been totally inspired by the dedication and hard work that some actors put into creating a believable character. Being out of training for so long, its almost been like a refresher course. I can't wait for my next audition so I'm able to put everything I've learnt into practice.
Onwards and upwards then this analysis isn't going to write itself....
Also any other Londoners fancy a Sunday session next week let me no... sometimes its nice to sit and do work with other people.
Keep going.....
Katie :)
