Week 1 : Studio

Faculty – Prathna Patil

Date – 09/01/2020

Today, we talked about what we did in the previous semester as a part of integrative studio 1 and did an interesting exercise.

The faculty asked us to form groups of 5 or 6 people and create a skit around one particular word without using words and rest of the teams had to guess what word are they trying to tell through the act, we picked up the chit, the word that we got was armistice which means an agreement made by opposing sides in a war to stop fighting for a certain time; a truce. So in our skit two people acted that they were fighting with weapons and I and the other team mate comes and shows a flag and the they stop fighting, and signs a agreement, the only mistake was that we did was, we didn’t show them fighting again, hence the act was not complete. Like this other teams also presented their skit around the word they got.

Through this activity, I learnt that the first impression that we create in a person mind can’t be changed very easily. Also that our actions can create a strong impact on a persons mind.

The class was super fun, it made me realise how important it is to have good sense of vocabulary.
