To continue on from my last post, my group's main accomplishment has been completing the script. After editing down to just enough lines, I feel as if we successfully are portraying the plot and illustrating our theme in a 10-page script. It’s funny that it’s possible to edit down that entire play and manage to get everything that matters into 10 pages. Shakespeare apparently liked to drag things out a lot.
I also feel like my group managed to work efficiently together. I think we all did a really good job of staying on task during our work times and each putting forth our best effort. Hopefully, our presentation comes out just as well. Our puppets have not been created yet, but our background for the show is looking good.
The most frustrating part of the script’s composition was copying and pasting the lines into the right places. Certain parts got mixed up and I ended up putting a line into our script in two different locations. Luckily, editing helped remove that.
Our presentation date is Tuesday, so we have one more day to practice. Hopefully, all goes well.
First recorded lines.

My current team log:
We got along pretty well. We helped to negotiate how our project was able to go. I gathered monolouges for my acts, and delivered them to the group. They liked them. I did a good job in understanding how revenge related they were, and I comprehended Iago's vengeful ambitions. One groupmate had trouble with her acts, and so I reccomended her to skip acts she doesn't find a single line about revenge in.
