Expectations & reality
When comparing my expectations beforehand with what the course actually consisted of… what was different and what was as I expected?
Comments
My expectation was to improove the idea of my act. I not only managed to do that, but I completely restructured the act, based on the story and characters/conflicts we came up with during the week. Once I had a clear view of those aspects, everything seemed so natural. It was suddenly obvious what parts, jokes etc. are in line with the sory and what is not. I also gained a much deeper understanding of the techniques we learned previously during the courses in the past years (I haven’t expected that at all).
det blev ingen tillverkning på den här kursen det hade jag förväntat mig. Oskar var duktig och kunnig men det blev för lite tid för var och en och mycket prat. vi betalade extra för matrial åt gång men efter som det inte var någon tillverkning så undrar jag vad det gick till.
It was way better than I expected.
It was kind of what I hade expected
Visste inte vad jag skulle förväntan mig
This is sort:) I had zero expectations, only excitement. And yet, they were exceeded!
I was expecting a more “hands-on” approach to the act itself, and specific directions from the instructor focusing on each session’s topics. The group discussions were an excellent way to get valuable feedback, ideas, and critiques from different people, but I expected a different methodology that involved the instructor’s concrete directions and insight.
I was expecting more structured content from Peter during the lectures. Somehow everything worked still out really well and was very inspiring since the bits and pieces of information came through the many group conversations and exercises.
Well. I was quite petrified to come to this course, as I did not want to work on the act I had brought. And in the end coming turned into self therapy. I learned that it’s ok to set something aside that doesn’t feel good and just move on. You still retain all you learnt from creating it but sometimes we need a break. And the act I performed at the end of the week was so unexpected. And it was actually easy to create once I let go and took onboard all of the plot and character tools we had been discussing the first two days of the course.
I have joined a lot of these courses and it’s as expected. I love it.
Most of it was as I expected. Perhaps it was a bit less interaction with other participants, but that might be because I went to bed too early. I guess I had anticipated a bit more discussion of different good, possible, and impossible structures of an act.
Kursen överträffade mina förväntningar. Inte minst blev jag överraskad över den mycket goda stämningen och hur snabbt man lärde känna varandra och hur alla var villiga att dela med sig av sina erfarenheter.
Mer prat än golvtid. Mindre konstruktion än tidigare. Ingen Tim Star
