Individual task

I listened to some scenes from the series Friends this week and decided to imitate Phoebe and Monica in one of the scenes. It was quite difficult to choose the scene, but I chose this one in the end, because there are some useful phrases and connected speech etc. I had troubles with the very first sentence. Phoebe said it so quickly that I recorded it maybe twenty times. But that is English so I didn’t give up. We learnt that in English the tempo, the way you say things is very important. So I tried to emphasize things that should be emphasized. If Monica or Phoebe sounded ironic, I said things ironic. I tried to speak as quickly as them and it wasn’t so difficult in this particular scene. Maybe I should have chosen some monologue so it was easier to get the point of the scene, but that is quite difficult with the Friends. Anyway, it's not easy to imitate both Monica and Phoebe like every actor in the Friends I think.
