Bonus Video Ep: How We Talk About Our Pain

Bonus Video Ep: How We Talk About Our Pain

In life, we usually don't relive a painful experience when we're talking about it. That doesn't mean it doesn't affect us. It's just that we're not actively trying to "go there." In fact, usually we resist going there with all of our being.

The same should be true when we're acting. We must build the character's past, but that doesn't mean our action is to relive it. This is another example of trusting the work we've done is *in us* and playing the action of the scene.

And if the scene does call for you to "go there," it's important to give yourself somewhere to go. This has to do with knowing where you're going and where you are in the context of the character's journey.
