At this point I feel it would be useful to reflect on being the director of our group. I do enjoy the position a lot, guiding people is what I like doing, I feel like I am obligated to being a leader a lot of the time. There is two things that are very difficult in our team to work around. The first being the energy. I wouldn't get rid of the energy of our group, it in a way has lead to the productivity and ingenuity of our production, though it is hard to work with sometimes. Finding ways to calm down enough people for a long enough time to get everyone on the same page is hard. I feel like I often find myself attempting to do this, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. This leads to the second thing, peoples sensitivity. What we are doing is hard, stressful, and personal. I have found that I constantly need to be careful and conscious of what I, and others, are suggesting to other actors. There is a fine line between constructive criticism, and outright nagging. I feel this week I, as a director, handled some of this pretty well. Though, I will continue to be aware of these things as the production gets tighter and more stressful (approaching final date).
