At 7:02 you mentioned a character may want to play into their need or fear or express their need or fear Could you give an example on that Like a scene for that Also at 8:oo you mentioned 👉 playing around with contrasting objectives Could you give a scene as an example

Questions 1: So if you give each character you play an over riding need or fear it gives you a unique way to play each scene. Needs are things like "need attention" "need to be right" and fears are like "fear of rejection" or "fear of intimacy". Choose just one to play around with that is supported by the script. Let's say the character Needs to Win. And a scene is them with a friend shopping. You would play the scene like you were trying to get the upper hand or the best deal. There would be a little competition that motivates the character. Or same scene with the FEAR of Rejection. You might be a little more needy or trying to flirt with the other character or not wanting to leave when they have to go somewhere. So the overriding need or fear is something that you give your character and you don't even have to tell others what it is. It's something you can lean on to add color and depth to how you play a scene. Question 2: An objective is what you want in a scene or what you want overall in a film or play. There are long term objectives (ie: I want to swim the english channel or I want to have a happy romantic relationship) and there are short term objectives (I need to convince my friend to be my swim coach or I need to get that person's attention in a bar). Sometimes you may have more than one thing you want in a scene. Like for instance if you want to attract someone's attention that you see in a bar, but at the same time you want to support your friend who is crying from a breakup. Playing the struggle between your two different wants at the same time adds interest to a scene. Also sometimes your short term objective is opposite of your long term objective. Say your long term objective is to find romance, but in the short term you have to break up someone else's romance to be with the person you're interested in. That's an extreme example but sometimes you have to do things you don't want to do in order to get what you do want. Those are contrasting objectives. But I think in the context of the video, I meant that you can play around with different choices for objectives in a scene. For example if you are in a scene shopping with a friend, you can try it with the objective "I want to impress my friend so they will help me" and if the scene lacks spark, you might change your objective to something totally different "I want to make my friend feel guilty about something so they will help me". In each of those cases, it's the same words and actions happening, but how you say the lines and what you are thinking behind the lines will make the scene play a totally different way. By changing your objective you can sometimes discover hidden moments of humanity or humor that otherwise would have been missed.

What if you don't get the sides until audition day.

That is what we call a cold reading. There, they are looking to see what you can do with little time to prepare. In those cases you want to do a mini version of what I explain. Read it through as many times as you can to make sure the words roll off the tongue and you understand what you are saying and then just make a choice based off your first instinct and be ready to play around with it at the audition. Pick either a fear or a need or give yourself 2 or 3 adjectives to play. You won't have time to really study the script, but that's ok, no one else will as well.

Sir what is the difference between script and screenplay?
@AugmentedActor
Жыл бұрын
While the two terms are sometimes used interchangeably, they generally refer to different types of documents. A script is a written document that outlines the dialogue, action, and general plot of a production. It is typically used in theater productions, and may also be used in television and film productions. Scripts are often more focused on dialogue than on visual descriptions. A screenplay, on the other hand, is a more detailed document that includes descriptions of the visual elements of a production, such as the setting, characters, and camera angles. Screenplays are specifically used in film and television productions and are written in a format that is standardized for the industry.

@@Aman-cc5ff I felt like the article agreed with me for the most part and maybe some wires got crossed in how the terms were communicated. I'm also including theater in the description as scripts tend to be in theater. But regardless, I trust the way that article explained things, so if my explanation was off, I would defer to the article. (I'm not an expert on script writing). Thanks for bringing the article to my attention though.

I used to do that more often, but I feel like people will subscribe if they like the content or if they come back a few times. So many youtubers bombard the viewer with subscribe, like, etc that I like to just focus on the content as much as possible.
