What are the factors that influence how a director presents a scene? Why do you think different directors see things so differently? because they want to be different and not have the same staging as someone else they want to be more unique of what their vision of how the scene should go.

Are Macbeth’s paranoia due to his own weakness or a consequence of what he did? i think the cause of his paranoia is due to both the concequnce of what he did and the weakness because he can not handle the pressure of the killing and the ghost.

Describe the process you took to present your scene.  What went well? Not so well? What would you do differently next time you had to do a scene? i think that are scene went well but we needed a little more props to emphasize the point of our scene.

Who is weaker? Macbeth or Lady Macbeth?  Why?
macbeth is weaker because in the beginning he was doubting the murder of duncan although he gained strength from his wife to continue with the plan. he was contenplating with him self most of the time.

In a short essay (5 paragraphs) explain this quote:"Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely."Make sure you give examples of how this is true both in *Macbeth* and in real life.
  

Absolute Power corrupts power because there are people out in the world who abuse the power they have but then again power can corrupt someone else with power because you want what they have to say they are better than you they have more property or authorirty over you.

An example from macbeth would be that macbeth has power and he is corrupted because he sees banquos ghost and how everyone is trying to come after him and banquos kids were suppose to be kings and not him his guilt is rising inside yet he will do anything in his power to stay king.
 
Power is to have control over someone or something in reality today power is everywhere in are political system for instance in our economy ruled by our government money rules over everything if you pay someone enough to join their campaing you can have some title in the political office just because of the amount of money they paid to support that person.

Also sometimes having to much power can be a bad thing because everyone wants to be a part  of something and anytime you give someone the upper hand. They become power hungry and will want all the they can possibly get no matter what the concequences maybe.

for example lady macbeth in the first scene wanted the power that duncan had so she can feel more important than anyone else so she corrupts macbeth by having the plan all set out on how hes going to kill him where it is going to happen while macbeth wanted his power when ever came to him.

What will Macbeth do about Banquo? i think that macbeth will get rid of banquo some way because banquo thinks its strange on how the king is murdered and macbeth automatically becomes king becuse duncans to sons left and never came back and macbeth is trying to make banquo believe duncans two sons had something to do with his death.

 To be a man is to stand up and do what you say your going to do and not consider the concequnces with out thinking about it.  Yes becuase she believes that macbeth is not a real man because the job would have been done by now and you  do not have to think about why should i do it? or jut sitting there and letting it go as planned and wait for something to happen. i believe lady macbeth is more manly because she planned how the process is suppose to happen.
