i believe i get what your saying but correct me if i’m wrong. With yourself being the character and adopting their traits/personalities, while also understating your goal and direction of the particular scene. Create or respond to the other characters in your own words first then once that’s done, the actual lines will becomes easier to come to you naturally. Basically training your mind to learn how to use “in other words” technique (those “other words” being the actual lines)
Are you saying the actor should rewrite every line. That the actor knows better than the writer, the director who has already gone over the script or the producers that are paying for the movie they fell in love with. As a gut with over 40 years of real world work, I can tell you that will get you kick off set or told to just do the lines we hired you to do. If you can make some one else words real, then you need to study your craft. Every actor is not Robin Williams (king of improv). Very minor, and I mean minor added words or changes are many times ok. But only if the actor has chops. Please don't try this as a new actor.
I’m not saying to change one word when you’re on set acting the part on camera. Please watch the video with more focus before saying things that are inaccurate to my advice given.
This is pure gold, thank you!
BTW... I do appreciate and enjoy many of your videos. This one throws me. If you are saying that the actor should use this while actually filming.
An actor should never change a single line unless told to do so. The video clarifies that point.
