Styles of Acting - Shakespeare Evaluation

I had the role of “Bottom”. The character is presented as stuck up actor who thinks he is superior to the other actors in the upcoming play. The way I made him seem stuck up is by having a mellow dramatic British voice and I tried to make my body movement as big as possible as it would mean that the audience would look at me more than any other person, meaning I’m thinking more like my character. When analysing my script I looked at ways in which I could say certain and when Bottom says “the raging rocks, the shivering shocks…”etc, I thought it would be comical to do it in a monologue style and rather over the top as it would be funny.
