11. 1. What was your initial response to the stimuli and
what were the intentions of the piece?
2. What work did your group do in order to explore
the stimuli and start to create ideas for performance?
⢠Focus on the practical application of your
research and stimulus material. How did
the stimulus material influence your
piece in terms of plot outline, style of
presentation, images or themes?
C1 Devising Portfolio
12. 3. What were some of the significant moments during the
development process and when rehearsing and refining your work?
⢠When looking at âsignificant momentsâ look at
your logbooks. What rehearsals stood out
where significant progress was made or a
break through occurred? Write about ideas
that were both accepted and rejected as a
result of exploration, giving full reasons to
justify the choices that you made. Be specific.
⢠Identify significant moments in rehearsal when
practical advances were made in the
development of your material and your piece.

14. 4. How did you consider genre, structure, character,
form, style, and language throughout the process?
⢠GENRE/STYLE â The style should define the piece and be
evident to your audience from the opening scene. Did
you use a range of styles and approaches?
⢠FORM/STRUCTURE â This refers to the whole range of
drama strategies that you used, from monologue to still
images. You must give the audience the opportunity to go
on a journey with the characters. Which forms of theatre
were most appropriate for the impact that you intended
to make and remember to continually justify why
decisions were made throughout the process.

17. 4. How did you consider genre, structure, character,
form, style, and language throughout the process?
This is a personal response about you and your role(s) and, as
with all the written evidence, it needs to be written in the first
person.
There are three stages to this question.
i. To identify early research into your character
ii. How your piece practically developed for you through
individual research and through 1/2 breakthrough moments
in the rehearsal process
iii. To recognise your role as part of the whole piece and not to
see it in isolation. Consider how your role(s) complemented
those of others and why it might have been necessary to
contrast with other characters for the purpose of emphasis
for the audience.

20. 5. How effective was your contribution to the final
performance?
6. Were you successful in what you set out to achieve?
⢠You need to self-analyse as this evaluation requires you to be balanced
and honest in your view of âsuccessâ.
⢠The first thing you need to so is BE CLEAR about what your AIMS and
INTENTIONS for your piece actually were.
⢠Avoid generalisations that mean little. Instead root your answer in the
actual performance. Select two/three central scenes to your piece.
⢠As a performer you know instinctively how the audience received a certain
scene. It may be nothing like what you expected or intended. Remember
that their reactions are vital.
⢠It might be worth noting your beginning and ending. How did you grab
your audience from the word go and how did you leave them feeling when
they left?
⢠What more might you have done in terms of scene order, editing, adding
new scenes, the way the story was told, changing the staging or the
music? Was your central message clear? If not, how would you clarify for
future performances? C1 Devising Portfolio
