Memorizing A Semi Awkward Scene

May 11th, 2009 by Alan Yu

Alright, so Wednesday is going to be the second day of that acting workshop and out of the scripts I was given I chose a scene a few day ago. The only problem is that the character description in terms of his physical presence isn’t exactly in my look range. Example, it says that the character is overweight which I’m definitely not.

So I was thinking of just changing some of the dialogue in the scene to suit me more as I kind of like the scene. However, I remember last time when I tried to make the other small scene my own I ended up mostly reverting to what seems was the original vision of the script.

The class is done in an audition style process and so maybe it is better for me to just keep it as it is. Maybe I’ll just use this as an example on how the coach said if you are called in for a role where you don’t exactly fit the physical description of the character that means they see something in you that may be workable.

I guess that is what I’ll do. The lines aren’t difficult to memorize.
