Thursday 25th September 2014 (Subtext)

We focused on subtext of our scripts to try and decipher the true emotions, meanings and motives of a character, for example in the scene with Eric (Callum) and Aaron (Jude), when Callum goes to hug Jude and says 'I've missed you', Jude says 'get off' but you know that he has actually missed him, he just doesn't want to say it.

We did an exercise today where we switched out our lines for the subtext of them instead so when Jasmine tells Sephy to get changed, she is really saying that she can't look sloppy for something she can't know about.

This exercise really helped me develop my character because it made me see things that I didn't before and I noticed that I stared saying some of my lines differently as a result, going fully into all of Jasmines emotions of the scene.

I have annotated my script with all of mine and some of Sephys objectives.
