Chocolate Chip Mystery Alison Sweeney Soni Analysis

Improved Essays
The comedy for a change. And Alison Sweeney--she is brilliant at this. And from the very first, we had just a great chemistry. And our director for the last two has been a wonderful actor and actor director named Kristoffer Tabori. And he is just brilliant. So we can trust him to help us with the rhythm. You know, we 've kind of gotten it down now. But especially when we were starting out, most directors have you not ever overlap in dialogue, but Kristoffer brings a reality to it. I think in Chocolate Chip Mystery, Ali and I had to keep walking upstairs over and over in that big building. And we were literally sweating, out of breath, and Kristoffer kept saying, "You guys can overlap because it 's real life." And we started doing that, and we were off to the races. As people are. You don 't have to actually look at somebody when you 're talking. In real life, maybe I say somehting and you say something, We 're in our own reality and then we realize, "Oh did you say something?" So that 's what we 're having a lot of fun exploring.

She has not made good choices in her life. She just has a very mean heart and a very unhappy marriage and is a very unhappy woman. All relationships in her life are unhappy. And then there are three other women in this, too, and we wrote this to show all these broken relationships and see how they hopefully heal and come together. And would you believe this is such a community project that because people believed in us and the message, we raised the money with donations. Then we also got a funder that has matched the donations. We raised almost 500,000 dollars in donations. And I 've invested in it, too. I put my own money into this project 'cause I believe in it. And then we found an investor who doubled it. So we have almost a million dollar budget to go make a

    The editing assignment was very interesting that. Our group’s goal was to make the edit as similar as possible to the original. I thought it would be the easiest way to edit, but it turned out to be much harder to do. Because of our choice, we had to constantly replay and refer to the clip and the script. I do feel like it was a shame that we did not get to use the master shot, and I think we can do a lot more if we choose to use the master shot.…

    Veteran Actress Mindy Robinson Works with Real Vets in Her Latest Role in Range 15 Robinson is one of the hardest working actresses in Hollywood with over 150 appearances on TV and film, and has no problem holding her own amongst the testosterone-fueled landscape of Range 15. Range 15 plays like The Hangover meets Act of Valor, with zombies to fight instead of terrorists.

    Jonathan Muñoz-Proulx’s direction brought Circle Mirror Transformation to a sweet spot between real and surreal. Annie Baker’s true-to-life writing style was taken and injected with movement to spark the creative mind. An ever changing stage was a clear foundation for the experimentation. Additionally, more movement between actors effectively clarified relationships and the tone of the play. However, with some major and minor tweaks to clean up Jonathan’s actor’s patterning and adjust the space’s architecture, Circle Mirror Transformation could be impactful by playing even more with imagination and what is literally being done for the sake of clarity.…

    “Faith isn't a feeling. It’s a choice to trust God, even when the road ahead seems uncertain.” Faith isn’t a feeling, a song isn’t a song until it’s sung, a bell isn’t a bell until its rung, and love isn’t love until it’s given away. Those are words spoken from a great man with a great journey, with faith. That great man so happens to be Dick Wallrath.…

    A couple of weeks ago, I went to go see The Skin of Our Teeth. The show is very confusing and I was not a huge fan of it. However, the way the set is laid out and the choices for costumes and some aspects of the acting were quite enjoyable. The script was my main issue that clouded over many of the other parts.…

    There 's no doubt that I can relate and pity Susan Smith. She went through trauma, depression, and thoughts of suicide just because her life wasn 't perfect, or what she hoped it would 've been. Most of all, Susan and her husband, David, were going through a divorce. Divorcing is hard for both people, even if no one loves each other as much as before. Especially having young children who don 't understand the current situation makes it difficult, tiring, and more stress put onto the parents.…

    One cold night in late January, volunteers counted 2659 homeless people in the Sacramento County. Many were found sleeping on the sidewalks, near parks, and even along rivers (Hubert). Homelessness has become normal in America because it is always seen as the effect of individual choices. Because of this, many fear and re-categorize (putting them in a different social class) the homeless. In Sacramento, statistics show that nearly 65% of veterans make up the homeless population.…

    14.7 million children live in poverty. I am one of them. And yet, no one seems to notice me or care. I’m just another piece of garbage in the street, just another thin, starved child that is above the notice of anyone. I wish tears could change my life, as if they could somehow wash out the hurt, and pain, as if they could drown the struggle.…

The author in her article explains in depth about the flaws of the representation of poverty and her definition and arguments with credible sources as proof, as well as the a critique to her article.…

We were walking to school on this beautiful day and we see people throwing away good food for no reason, we stop and think about all those homeless people and they aren’t thinking about them. Victoria and I enter the class and she tells her teacher “ We need to have a fundraiser we need to bring everyone together with leftover food and instead of throwing it to the trash we can give it to people that have nothing at all to eat ” her teacher Ms.Flores agrees and says I will talk with the vice principal Mr.Patrick and the parents and we will do it right here in our school”.

    “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” is a commonly used quote. I can honestly say I didn’t hear it from an upbeat pop song at first. But from someone more important in life, my father. When I was younger I thought the tiny scars and disgusting bruises was something hard to overcome. What I “overcame” was nothing compared to what would happen in January of 2008.…
