How Emotional reveals real Personalities?
The reality that emotion does when resonating inside a person is an amplification of their believed truth.
The goal in acting is to match your believed truth about yourself and who you are to the initial aspect of the script beginning. Then as honestly as possible interact keeping that emotional connection.
Honestly interacting keeping emotional connections are far different than reacting or performing. Reacting is better but actually processing the stimulus of the other person and the scene is more ideal.
Instruction:
- To the best of your current judgement look at the script and decide with the audition material what is the best point of view that you also feel strongly about. Then use Emotional Preparation Techniques, which there are many to choose from to charge yourself as honestly as possible with that Emotional charge.
2. Set your intention to the initial moment of entry into the script.
3. Attempt to look at any key changes emotionally in the scripted auditional material. IF it is tricky material there may be large emotional swings in the mood and expressions that the words describe. (If there are large swings you can also choose to Emotionally Prepare yourself for those other transitions)
4. Be Relaxed in your emotional condition.
If you are not relaxed enough your emotion will not interact even with a person reading lines or a full rendition of audition materials. Emotional Elements in Acting include needing relaxation techniques.
Notice the other person, receive how they are interacting with you and if they are just reading then still follow the intent of the author keeping an emotional openness that shows your personality and interests.
How to Prepare for Transitions in Scripts

If the Emotional self stimulation of your effort matches an honest emotional response that you have to put into the material and you are able to relax to some degree even though your emotionally charged this is ideal. If you are tense you will become neurotic and your expressions will not be interactive.
2. Do the work to have understanding of what part of yourself matches the scripts and writers intention.
This is finding parts of what emotionalizes you. It may be as simple as a topic of that you feel strongly about. However just because you feel strongly about it if you are not relaxed enough to be open with your opinion it will not flow into your work.
Find matching intensity of emotionalizing that you are able to still intake another’s opinion even though you have your own opinion.
3. Initially do Emotional Preparation only for section Casting Director is asking for
If the Casting Director asks you to do a part of the material than whichever part, they are asking for then do the Emotional Element internal work at that time then commence work. It may take only 10 seconds to find that match inside yourself once you know how to utilize Emotional Preparation.
You will have a learning curve and sometimes to reach certain intensities you will need an hour or even days to understand some emotional elements.
KEY: Do not try to use all of your Emotional Elements in Acting and Auditioning at once. Use only the part that is being asked for. TRUST THAT YOU WILL HAVE THE OTHERS ACTIVATE BY THEMSELVES AS THE SCRIPT IS READ.
