poster- me and paige have completed our poster which i think looks really god we have based the poster around a teenage girl life so we used images of paige in her school uniform in a bedroom the room is quite girly and creates and atmosphere
radio ad- the radio ad we havent quite start but we know we are going to use the text from the poster in the radio ad so it creates a link so people will think ive seen that before and think more deeply about the ad and the aim of our champaign .

our visit from the central school of speech and drama
free Audition voucher
The voucher we received is for a standard audition for a undergraduate . they were given to us because we took part in a work shop which was based on auditions .i now to be very open in audition project my voice use emotion remember your lines and if you forget try to carrying on but the best thing to remember is be creative use different voice and are you using english correctly.
we were also made to think about our future which was a new thing for me i didnt know what i wanted to do before i leave school but now i have a better idea i would like to take a course link to drama media or music i have some time to think about things but i now have some kind of idea .
the work shop got me thinking about people and people skills and made me think about the skills we need to do with people because as we get older we meet more people we work with people live with people and we need skills to get along with them and even be friends with them .
Today we had a visit from the cssd we were then joined by brentford school for girls .we started by standing in a circle to play a name game called splat .Then after the game we decided we needed to get to know each other so we were sat next to people we had never met before this was very helpful so we could kinda learn each others names .after this we played another game ,this game included walking around the class room until a number was called we then had to makes groups with that number of people .we then had to make a still image of things like pineapples .The task i was not so keen on was when we had to lay on the floor for about 20 minutes an think about our future and where we think we will be when we are 25 i did not know the answer to that question then and i still dont know the answer so i think that task was kind of a waste of time .overall ive learned quite about about skills i will need in the future .one of the key skills i have learned today is improving my people skills because this morning i was really quite shy i didn't want to speak to the other girls that i didnt know but by doing group activities ive been able to talk to the other girls so i now know that group work is a good way to improve people skills .I have enjoyed thinking about my future and what skills i will need in life like drama skills are very useful in everyday life .
