I'm planning to get a blog set up for my dramaturgy work - the journal stuff that I learn or would like to note that isn't necessarily about a specific production - as it's tough to link videos and such to the notebook I use as a journal. In the meantime, I'm going to keep linking things here!
This article talks about how the Mormon Tabernacle Choir was used as a 'flash mob', which I think is AWESOME. I was watching the video of the event, and it occurred to me that I was analyzing the dramaturgy of the scene that was playing out in the reenactment - wondering about the research, how the writer laid everything out, the balance of the lines and the actions... and that I was starting to think about most things this way. Movies, books, TV shows, commercials (ack! the commercials!), everything is starting to be evaluated for its dramaturgy.
I'm pretty excited about this new habit, actually.
* Here's the video link (no embed, bleh) - the singing starts about 3:28.
- I've been such a sap lately, even this was getting me a little emotional!
