@carolinesas: I agree with you. At this time in my musical performing history, this AIDA performance was my very first time singing in front of people other than my mom. I was so nervous to actually be singing and not have had any vocal lessons. I tried not to show my nervousness, but I did take the easy route in singing them in a head voice. However, I gained confidence by the next year =] So check out my Spanish Rose performance from the musical Bye Bye Birdie!! I BELT there!

Good job. You sang it well. But some of your moves are a bit corny, and you move your arms to a point where's it a bit distracting. Try to keep the motions down to a few key moves, and keep it looking realistic. Imagine if you were saying the words, instead of singing and how you would stand and act if that were the case.

@dixiebaby1111: Thank you very much. The director of the class asked for every student who's performing to imagine as if we were on a Broadway Stage in front of hundreds of people, so to make sure to be entertaining & grab the excitement/interest from even the person in the farthest seat. He deliberately said to make it big and not just act it out, because then people would stop being interested.

um.... did you choreograph this yourself?

[christinacastro319]

@Masquerade2010: Yes I did. It was my very first time ever singing & performing a song in front of people. I only would sing in front of my Mommykins loL, so this was a nerve racking & exciting experience for me.

Your movements are too bold and they take away from your singing by attention and also the physical activity makies your vibrato weird.
