    Lauren, I chose three channels on YT to watch in preparation for my first ever self-taped audition (for a lead on an episode, so I needed something fast). I watched all of them and immediately tried this approach. In about twenty minutes I had my entire one-page monologue memorised. This method completely works!! I owe you a massive thank you. I even tested myself by going to get snacks, change into pyjamas, etc and then randomly recite my monologue every ten minutes or so over a period of an hour and it was all completely still in my brain. Word. Perfect. Just like you said. Thank you so, so much

      When you came back to it after doing other things did you go through it first with the letters again or could you just rattle off the lines perfectly? I am finding with breaks that it’s not flying off my tongue and I have to do it all again.

    Recently, I watched and interview with Robert DowneyJr. And when the question was asked of him, how would he go about to memorizing lines, he said, I write every first letter of every word. I go through it and, got it.I said wow. This morning I stumbles on this video and reminded me of that interview. However, Lauren showed me the technique behind it and made it sound simple. I was sceptical at first and thought, yeah right. She probably worked on this already. So,I picked up the sides for tomorrow, took the first chunk and went to the process.it friggin worked. It worked so well and so fast, it freaked me out!!! Thank you so much for sharing this in sch simple way. You just gave me at new easy outlook of how to go about this in the future. I always did it the ild school way and it seemed exhausting lately but this? WOW! I works.again - THANK YOU!!🙏🏻

      ............Greet......Greetings.......
      ...***Greetings, Beloved of God. This message is lengthy but, it is very important.
      The ancient Israelite was tested by the Sabbath commandment to see if they would keep God’s law or no in Exodus 16:4-
      Do not be surprised if God allow man to do a similar test, enforce some type of Sabbath law to see if we will keep His law or no.
      ************************************************
      Right now, we all do not see eye to eye, but, please hear me out..............
      There is no way anyone can prove from the KJV Bible that Saturday, Sunday, etc. is the biblical seventh day Sabbaths. For, the words Saturday, Sunday, etc. do not appear in the Bible.
      A continuous Saturday, Sunday, etc., “man made Sabbaths” ARE NOT the true Bible Sabbaths because they are not calculated by true time. God’s true time is written in Genesis 1:14.
      When God commanded us to keep a seventh day Sabbath, kill the Passover on the 14th day of the first month, keep the day of atonement on the 10th day of the seventh month, etc......would He not have given us a calendar/Time to find these dates?
      Yes, He would have and He did, in Genesis 1:14. We are commanded to keep the days, years, etc. by the lights in heaven (the sun, moon and stars.)
      God did not specify which days, so, we must conclude that He meant for all of His 3 category of days to be kept by the lights in heaven.
      ***********
      The Sabbath command is one of the Ten Commandments listed in Exodus 20. It is just as important as the other nine and God commands us to keep it.
      Multitudes of people think and teach that we are only required to keep 9 of God’s Ten Commandments. My Friend, if we think this way, we are already deceived.
      *****************************************************************************************************************
      ***The Sabbath is a feast. Leviticus 23:1-3
      ***The moon is for seasons. Psalms 104:19
      ***The lights in heaven are for seasons, etc. Genesis 1:14
      ***The words “feast” and “season” comes from the same Hebrew word, MOED.
      ***MOED is, appointed times, appointments, feast, season, etc.
      The Sabbath is a MOED, an appointed time , a feast, a season, etc. Therefore, the moon, along with the other lights in heaven, are for Sabbaths.
      THE SABBATH IS TO BE CALCULATED BY THE TIME GOD ORDAINED IN THE BEGINNING OF CREATION NOT BY MAN’S TIME/CALENDARS.
      Who can prove from Genesis 1:14 that the Sabbath day is not calculated by the lights in heaven? Although many have tried, it cannot be refuted!!
      Take a glimpse at the dates in Genesis 7:11 and Genesis 8:4,13,14. Are these dates calculated by the Time God commanded in Genesis 1:14 or by the Gregorian time or some other man made time?
      **********
      There are about 167 countries that keep Sunday as the seventh day and the remaining, approximately, 64 countries keep Saturday as the seventh day.
      If there is a “seventh day Sunday law” enforced and the remaining 64 countries change their calendars to read Sunday as the seventh day, then, the world will be keeping Sunday the seventh day as the Sabbath.
      Mon. Tue. Wed. Thur. Fri. Sat. Sunday Law
      1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7
      What day will you and I then keep as the Sabbath?
      Already today, there are “Sunday Blue Laws” on government books.
      Man can change “their” time anytime and deceive the world under the leadership of Satan. We must calculate God’s Sabbath by God’s Time so The Great Deceiver can not trick us about the true Sabbath and “cause” us to worship him.
      “ He will think to change time and laws.” says Daniel 7:25
      He only “THOUGHT” to change time when He “supposedly” had replaced God’s calendar with his calendar on earth. For he could not and has not truly change time because God’s Time sits in the heavens where no man can tamper with it! The sun, moon and stars, the lights in heaven, are God’s Time/Calendar.
      ***********
      God’s Calendar has three category of days, the new moon day, the six work days and the Sabbath day. 2 Kings 4:18-23 & Ezekiel 46:1-3. The new moon day is the first day of the month, the beginning of months. These days never, ever, ever overlaps each other on God’s Time!
      ........However, this is not true on the famous Gregorian calendar. The new moon day falls anywhere and everywhere on that calendar, in a given month.
      For example, sometimes, the new moon day falls on a “man made Saturday Sabbath”, on a “man made Sunday Sabbath”, in the midst of the month, etc.
      How can it both be the first day of the month and the seventh day Sabbath?
      How can the first day of the month start in the midst of a month?
      God said in Genesis 1:14 to, let the lights in heaven be for days, etc.
      So, which one or ones of God’s three category of days are kept by the lights in heaven?
      ...The new moon day?
      ...The six work days?
      ...The Sabbath day?
      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      Example of God’s months:
      1st week... new moon day, six work days and Sabbath day
      2nd, 3rd, 4th weeks....six work days and Sabbath day
      The next month the cycle starts over.
      God’s months reset. Read Luke 6:1
      Man uses this same concept. For example:
      The 1st and 3rd Sunday in August, the 1st and 3rd Sunday in September.”
      “The 2nd and 4th Sabbath in April, the 2nd and 4th Sabbath in May.”
      Note: There is never, never, ever, ever, 5 weekly Sabbaths in any one of God’s months.
      This is not true on the Gregorian calendar. Sometimes, there are 5 weekly “Gregorian Sabbaths.” This is not in align with true time.
      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      I believe there is a great deception coming to get people to worship Satan through a false Calendar/Sabbath controversy.
      God is a God of truth. God guides people by His truth. God’s Word is truth. Truth is our shield and buckler. Truth will keep us from all deceptions, the mark of beast, etc.
      Christ did not suffer on the cross for us to walk in a lie and continue to cling to our traditions! He did not die for us to obey the “voice of man” above “the voice of God!”
      Read the stories about “King Saul” in 1 Samuel 15 and the “man of God” in 1 king 13. Let us learn a lesson from these testimonies....Obey God’s Voice!
      When we do and teach man’s commandments for doctrine, it is vain! It is useless! God does not honor it! There will be no reward!
      Again! there is a great possibility some type of “Man made Sabbath Law” could be enforced. These latter days crises seems to be pointing in that direction. If this is not true, then, we do not have to worry about it......But.....
      ....If it is truth then, we need to become more knowledgeable about this subject in order to make the right decision whom we will honor and serve.

      A Sabbath test will reveal those who believe Gods Word and those who do not.
      Whether there is or whether there is not a “Sabbath Test”, we still need to know the truth about God’s Time written in the Word of God so we can be obedient in all things.
      ***Worship Him that made heaven, earth and sea.
      ***Babylon is fallen! Babylon is fallen!
      ***Do not worship the Beast and receive his mark, whosoever does, will be eternal lost and be burnt with fire and brimstone.
      ****Read Revelation 13 & 14
      This truth about God’s Calendar/Time and The Sabbath written in Genesis 1:14, Leviticus 23:1-3, Psalms 104:19, etc.is spreading throughout the four corners of the earth.
      This message enrages many who claim to be followers of Christ because they can not refute it. It seems, the people outside the church buildings are the ones eagerly accepting it and believing it.
      Please let us consider what is being said here and further research this important subject before it is to late.
      Peace and Love Friends of God

    This method is great, I’ll totally be combining this with my current one. what i do, is I slowly remember where the liens are on my script page, and based off of which line is in which place I remember what i’m supposed to say. it seems hard, but this helped me to remember the ORDER of my lines, not the lines themselves. This combined with other actors lines is amazing for having more natural scenes.

I am going to use this method on something I have been trying to memorise for two weeks now… I have been reading one line over and over continuously until I can say it. However, it is such a long process I find… I still have a lot to memorize. Thank you for taking the time to help us out. Now I can start focus on as you guessed it… the interactions and flow with the others much sooner.

    I am amazed. After watching this yesterday I asked a friend to chose any book and then any paragraph and then give me to learn. I read the paragraph back within 10 minutes. It’s a superb technique. X

    OMG I PRAISE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!! My Jr. High is doing "You're a Good Man Charlie Brown" and we have 3 Lucy's, 3 Charlie's, 3 Snoopy's, 2 Sally's, and 2 Schroeder's. I'm Charlie 2 with my lines starting from page 29 to 55. There is a week from the first performance and I now know all of my lines when I only knew 7!!!!!!!!! Many thanks :D

    • @laurentothero116
      @laurentothero116  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      AWESOME!! I *love* "You're a Good Man Charlie Brown!!" It's such a fun show. It's always an interested experience when shows are double/triple cast. If one thing's for sure, you never want to be "the person who doesn't have their lines memorized." So I'm SO happy that this method works for you!
      What else would help you feel more prepared for opening night? Break a leg!!

  • @AugmentedActor
    @AugmentedActor 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This is brilliant. I’ve been acting for 30 years and I’ve never seen anything like this. I’m pretty quick at memorizing lines in general. They seem to just fall into place after a few times through a scene. But for those times when you have to get off book quickly and retain, this is an amazing technique. Thanks so much for sharing this “Golden” acting tip!

    Extraordinary, it actually works but I think it is good not only for memory but exercises the entire brain the more you use it in this fashion - and fun! And this is very important, I think. I am simply astonished to discover your tequnique, Lauren, fantastic. 👍

  • @filton0

    Very good! I've done a bit of theatre acting but stopped because of the stress of remembering lines, and the trauma of sometimes getting blocked (still have nightmares). As you say, everything else comes later.
    Another thing, though, is remembering when to come in. Not as tricky as remembering your part, sure, but still important - for the integrity of the piece, and so as not to mess with your fellow actors.
    One thing I used to do that worked quite well was record (on cassette - I'm sure it could be something more techy now) the other parts surrounding my lines. Then when it came to my line, I'd mouth it silently, leaving a space on the tape which was just the length of my line. Then I'd say the other actor's next line, and so on. When I played it back, I had the prompts and then the spaces to say my line. And I'd practise scenes at home, in the car, etc. (If you could get the other actors to say their parts, record them, then do the silences for your lines, then that would be even better.)
    This little technique would work really well in conjunction with yours, I think. (I wish I'd seen this video ten years ago!)
    Thanks once again!

    My mom just signed me up for an audition that is in two days... and I have around 20 lines to memorize (Long lines) and not to mention I have to memorize a solo from wicked and all of Journey to the Past by Friday. For a theater class. Yeah, you can see why I’m stressed. I’m going to try this, be back soon!
    Update one-
    It’s been about an hour since I began writing everything down. I’m a slow writer, so it took that long. And holy crap, this works. What normally takes me around two hours to kind of get the main idea, it took me a little over half an hour to memorize it. Thanks so much, you are a lifesaver 💕💕💕

    • @laurentothero116
