In the clip of “Frailty, thy name is woman”, there are two dynamics of presentations from Gibson and Hawke movie clips. Both of them entail application of various styles, their similarities and the differences. Based on these dynamics of presentations, the message conveyed is thereby viewed differently. The implication of applying different models of performance is aimed at achieving the effectiveness of the play, as well capturing the attention of the listeners.
In both videos, the narrators express the use of tonal variation to portray different scenarios in the performance. For instance, the performers, both in the Gibson’s and Hawke’s plays carefully vary their tones whenever there is transition of lines or chapters. This is well articulated in the line where the narrator expresses why God had not fixed His Canaan against self-slaughter. The tonal variation is strongly evidenced in the next line where the narrator exclaims such words as, “Oh my God.”
Similarly, both presentations show the application of demonstrations from either video or live clips. In line with this, the two performances solely rely upon the live shows alongside verbal narrations. For example, in the Gibson’s play, the narrator critically expresses this style by showing live display of a woman and a king most presumably making romance.
Nevertheless, there are differences in their styles of presentation, for example, Gibson’s performance relies heavily on first hand information from the narrator, while Hawke’s performance is through a video clip narration. Therefore, Hawke’s performances are void of facial expressions, first hand body language and other styles that are associated with live performance. According to my own evaluation of the two presentations, I would conclude that Gibson’s performance is more effective than Hawke’s. This is due to the fact that his performance exhibits full application of stylistic devices required in a message delivery.
The clip “To be or not to be” shows the inclusion of various performance skills. Both actors employ the use of first hand delivery of information, accompanied with tonal variation at the beginning and the end of every statement. Most significantly, both actors manage their stage performance through excellent body movements and facial expressions. However, there is a slight difference in the actors’ narration. Gibson’s performance is accompanied by live demonstrations while Hawke’s lack the live demonstrations.
The stage settings are clear indication of the message to be delivered. For instance, the dark and gloomy background suggests how dreary and frightening death is. The performance background is further emphasized by the tone that the actors use. Therefore, the scene sets up a linkage representation between the stage and the tonal variation and the stage setting.
My response in regards to these performances is very positive about their full implementation of action styles. Furthermore, the actors portray Helmet’s condition of sadness and grief. For example, Gibson articulates dreadful performance, a significance of fear regarding death, while Hawke in his movie expresses devastations of death through the roaring sound of an explosion.
Finally in the video clip, “The King’s Introduction” a strong linkage between the page and the screen is notable. In this video, the king makes a formal introduction to his wife before well arranged audience, and then proceeds with his speech, getting constant rounds of applause from the audience. The connection of the two scenarios is fully satisfied because the written scripts are effectively utilized in the live performance..
