Catherine R.

For my “Make A Difference” project I want to prove that singing isn’t hard if you try and that anyone can do it. Singing is the act of producing musical sounds with the voice. Many respects singing is merely a form of sustained speech. In my movie, there is a girl named Samantha who thinks singing is hard. But Olivia tries to change her mind. Before the skit, I will be asking people their opinions on singing and asking them to sing.

Scene 1:
I will be interviewing two people about singing and getting them to sing.

Scene 2:
Samantha and Olivia walk into music class and greets the music teacher. The music teaches them "Ma Lay La". Then he wants them to try it on their own. Olivia goes first.

Scene 3:
When Olivia is done, the music teacher says, "it's your turn Samantha." " I don't want to. It's to hard." complains Samantha. "No it's not." Olivia chimes in. "If you just try, it's easy. Watch" Olivia starts to sing "Ma Lay La"

Scene 4:
When Olivia's done, the music teacher says "Olivia is right. But, so is Samantha. Singing is easy but it takes a lot of practice which is the hard part." "Really?" they asked in unison. " Yea. and there are some different exercises and tips that are easy to follow." "Like what?" asks Samantha?

Scene 5:
The music teacher starts to tell them some singing tips. "Some of them are, never hold your breath while singing. The airflow carries your vocal tone and without breathing, your vocal tone doesn't flow." "Isn't one of them keeping your shoulders down and relaxed and not to make them rise when you breath in?" asks Olivia "That's right." he says "What about if you make a mistake? Shouldn't you just keep singing and not point it out to the audience?" asks Samantha "Yes. One final one is to know your limits. Don't sing out of your comfort range. Don't sing to high or to low." "Thanks" says the girls

Scene 6:
"I think i'm ready to sing now that i know about these tips." says Samantha. "Good" says Olivia "Start when your ready" says the music teacher. Samantha takes a big breath and starts to sing.

Scene 7:
When Samantha stops, Olivia says "You did really well" "Good job girl!" says the music teacher. " I think we are ready to learn the song we are going to sing in chapel."
