How did people find it? I actually thought it was really decent! Particularly for Multi-Discipline Theatre.
I feel like no one who does drama is on ATAR notes haha, but if you are hiding somewhere I'm super interested to know your thoughts!

there's surely got to be ONE lurker. Out of interest, do you do performance exams in HSC Drama?

Hopefully! and Yes! 60% practical, 40% theory.
So 60% is a basically two major works that equal 30%, a group performance which you devise from scratch and an individual project which can be a range of things like a monologue, costume/set design, script, critical essay, promotion etc (I did a short film :) ). But they were both finished ages ago, like a week after trials! We just had the essays today :)

Sounds like a super cool subject. (I did Theatre Studies in VCE so personal interest). Do you feel confident with your performance/short film?

Yeah it is cool! Only annoying thing is it has such a bad rep as a "bludge subject" when in reality I've never experience a more work heavy subject in my life! It's basically a 3 unit subject with only 2 units of credit :( Is that the same with the VCE?
I am pretty confident in our group performance because the markers and our teacher seemed really happy after it. I'm fairly confident about my film :) I liked the finished product however it was just such a big task that there were little things that I didn't have enough time to add, plus hella stressful because I had such a massive cast who couldn't seem to comprehend that it was actually for my HSC haha. But overall I'm happy with how everything worked out :)
