Project Outcome: The student participated in an inter-school competition, showcasing talent through a captivating performance that demonstrated hard work and creativity.
Project Description: The project focused on creating a mime act, developed as part of a term-long unit on mime. This unit explored the foundational techniques of mime, including fixed point, illusion, and exaggeration, enabling students to master the art of non-verbal storytelling. The outcome of the learning process was an integrated mime performance based on the theme of the India-Pakistan Partition, highlighting the emotional depth and historical significance of the event.
The act was a self-initiated creation by Arsh, designed specifically for an inter-school competition. Through this project, Arsh not only demonstrated a thorough understanding of the techniques learned but also applied them creatively to produce a compelling and impactful performance.
The entire process—from conceptualization to execution—spanned the term, involving research, skill-building, and multiple rehearsals to refine the final product. The outcome exemplified the culmination of skill development and thematic integration in mime, making it a standout piece.
