The Clown-lympics was an interesting test; No pencils, no paper, all the hats and tricks.
Organized into two groups, there was Bryan, Tatum, Gustavo, Jordan and Ashara, followed by Scott,
Zayne (yep, butchered that one) Nikki, Aubrey and myself.
The first group took the Clown-lympics as a literal approach. We saw sporting events pertaining to the Olympics where each clown failed or succeeded to perform various olympic-y things. In there group I saw front rolls (front and back), falls (both feigned and realistic) and jumps (assemble, and other jumps). It was fun to watch, and also scary...
On a side note, every time Bryan, Gustavo, and Tatum have a silent performance, there is accidental falling involved. Thank the lo'd that the next performance has lines.
Following was my group.
We came together to form a linear plot line of a failed fishing day. We thought of a place, and activity, and obstacles and came up with a short story. It was fun and interesting to come up with something so dependent on being collaborative; my fellow group members contributions was very helpful.
We started by introducing the characters one by one, using the required stunts and tricks and such.
We had rolls, a cartwheel, and some jumps.
During the middle of the scene we had falling over backwards, a tackling of a fake fish (that counts as a fall, right?) and I managed to throw some, probably unnecessary, hat tricks at the very end after we lost the fish and I blamed Zayne (still butchering it). I'm looking forward to doing the Seuss project and utilizing all of our accumulated tricks with lines and a good pants story.
