The last article on the process of selection and find the purpose of the sign used. Many of the same principles apply to the selection of the emotions. When the goal is the ability to select and transmit strong emotions into a valuable tool for the actor. Many shows to work mainly because of the strong emotional performances.
In a dramatic sense, they are emotions and how they affect the public? Emotions, together with the intentions and barriers are the forces that move the characters through the story. You are feeling so powerful they change the character of life or to destroy. And by destroy, I mean the internal powers, decimation, beliefs, and even his life. For the actor, must those feelings be larger than life. You must also be readable in order to move the audience and bring in the desired story.
Feelings to the public in many ways. Most important is empathy, they create causes the public to care about certain characters and follow their struggles. They also provide a rated for or against the polarity for each main character that the audience observes, judges, and take their own party. As part of the behavior, emotions create a deeper awareness of the character, often to justify their actions. In addition, feelings can change the perspective of the public and how they feel or think about a topic. They play a role in the conduct of public history in the desired direction
As intended, the emotions intensify the conflict within or between the characters. It is also the roles of the sympathetic or antagonistic, are the ones the public is root for the hero and booing the bad guy.
By selecting the emotion, the rules are similar to the selection of the target used. First, read and study the entire room. Looking for clues in the dialogue, action, stage directions, and in the resolution of the story. Select the options that make it their sense of history in the line.
What the character, the emotion in relation to the way that relates to what the character knows and feels in this moment in history.
No one lives in a realistic world. We occupy an area of ??our own creation – mixed snippets of news along with our internal perceptions, our hopes, fears, memories and expectations. This “reality” in which we live – is half fantasy half – is as much a product of our emotions than our rationality. Thus, in a certain situation, which may may be an acceptable intention and emotion for a character to be a conflict with another character. Knowing the nature of the targets, gaps and slopes in the context of the entire story will help to determine these decisions.
Then we have to answer the question as to the emotions of the character of help for emotional or a hindrance? Set the goal, what the character wants to divert into conflict with what he or she feels at the scene of the character with the greatest internal struggle.
Consider the situation where a man is a dance and see the women of his dreams sitting alone. Might be his intention: to make his acquaintance. But his emotions, fear of rejection, would come into conflict with his intention. Thus, the center of the stage would focus on his inner struggle and could be the target of the stage to show the man to overcome his fear.
But let’s say his intention to marry rich, is supported by emotion, ambition. And the scene is resolved when the women go when they discovered the man’s abject poverty. If the initial feeling of fear by the desire and intention remained to make him have been replaced, then the focus of the scene would be central to the relationship and the impending discovery. The purpose of the scene could be presented a major obstacle in history, women with their goal: to win her love.
The first elections for each character might look like this:
MAN
Goal: get to know them
Emotion: Fear / Desire
WOMAN
Goal: marry rich
Emotion: ambition
The above decisions implemented clashes, doubts inner man, and then, his desire for her is countered by the revelation that he is not rich enough for them. After the woman learns that her change of emotions in defiance of the people and walks away. The choice of the sign would change now:
MAN
To win her love: Target
Emotion: Determination
WOMAN
Goal: marry rich
Emotion: The contempt (for humans)
These decisions determine the center of the stage on the main conflict is resolved later in the story, as he wins his love. He also focuses on the essentials, the relationship.
As with the intention of the characters, the emotion will not need to follow the logic of dialogue and action. Modern plays and movies are not always explicitly clear thoughts and emotions of the characters, naked, in front. Today we play the duality of man, they seem to want against what they really want to play. And sometimes the two may have no connection.
In modern plays, each character has two behaviors. What is really happening and what they are willing to show the world? So many emotions to be played correctly, should be partially hidden or repressed.
Use of men and women of our previous example, we set up a scene later in the story, one shows that the duality of the characters and customs of the partially masked or suppressed emotions. In a shopping center, they meet by chance and their dialogue is especially small question. The scene ends with each case based on race canceled. The only clue to what is actually happening in the following lines of ActionScript:
He hardly looks straight at her.
They shake hands, each operating for longer than necessary, and then goes all the way.
Given the outcome of the story, it’s probably a scene where his target is inclined to marry rich, to fade, and it has a certain attraction to humans. Depending on how committed their first meeting, was their choice as follows:
MAN
Goal: do not change, to gain his / her love
Emotion: Desire / Determination
WOMAN
The aim: to show him that I do not like / What I want him
Emotion: Determination / Curiosity
It would be a scene where the characters are not being open with each other, and yet the audience (or camera) is the inner conflict and what is actually happening. Behavior could be better masked and / or suppressed emotions reflect.
When the man was his emotion, the desire to play open, he would surely have trouble. So he must displace, or use a mask to share technology and his desire, if it does not look to him. The woman is determined to show the man she does not care for him, but now it seems to have no desire for her. In his view, has little change to the relationship and that they both its purpose and emotional changes.
His apparent disinterest makes you curious, and now his goal: To make of me, like all men. His actions could be to get his attention in order to attract them. But the problem is, it is not looking. How can they get what they want? It uses a the handshake linger.
You can see where these decisions create conflicts within and between the characters. They also create subtle changes in behavior that advance the story. Interest in the relationship is also increased because the public is aware of, something that the characters do not. And as the scene ends, the public has the most pressing question: “What will happen the next time they meet?”
The above example shows a response to the selection of the character. These are, in each case the best or only choice. In fact, the kind of actor you are also a factor. If you were Jack Nicholson, you can use your emotions to be different than if Arnold Schwarzenegger had, he plays the same role. Every actor on the stage brings its own perspective and emotional widths. In addition, a scene is played as a comedy, a drama that had played such a different set of emotions compared to mean for the characters.
Here are a few other factors to consider: Who are you in the story? What is the situation, and what is the relationship? For example, if you were playing a love scene as a figure who had little experience with the opposite sex, your emotion fear (fear of the unknown), rather than should be the desire or craving.
Now change the situation to your fine with a dinner with your wife. Your feelings might change contentment or joy. Now change your relationship with your dinner with an important client. Your feelings may fear the ambitions of the rich greed. Who are you, relationships, and relationships, all have an influence on the chosen emotion.
How many emotions can be used in a scene and how long you play an emotion? To work generally with a single dominant emotion in a scene – until something happens to change it. These events could have a change in the relationship, the situation of who you are, new information, overcome barriers, new obstacles and succeed or fail in its intention. Each of these events could be an influence, to motivate change.
Most of the scenes have a dominant emotion is running through it and use while the other actors subtle nuances of emotions, there is a feeling – until something happens to change it. If the actors had to change the emotion in each case, a small, would the public questions the integrity of character and fidelity to the cause for which he fights.
Cause too many changes to lose the character, a part of his identity. We are unsure of who he is what he attempted in the past, or what he wants now. Credible characters consist of coherent patterns of behavior. By that I mean, what happened before probably occur again if the same situation occur. There will be some surprises, but above all, some emotions will dominate the behavior of each character as he or she progresses through the story.
So, if you study and look for the entire room, you’ll probably find some emotions and emotional patterns repeated to reinforce the identity of the character and commitment. For example, the repeating unit of the disaster – embarrassment – the fear is the prevailing feelings for a little boy to be abundant. A young executive struggling with ethical business practices can be a cause of the emotion of ambition – Determination – greed – guilt. A woman could be in jeopardy following a suspicious curiosity – the progression of terror – fear.
As you can see, certain emotions and their progressions form a part of the character. Also look for surprises where emotion swings through 180 degrees, ie the satisfaction of fear, to despise the desire, revenge and compassion.
When working on writing a play or a scene in the margin of the script in your choice of goals and emotions, where the changes occur, and motivation to change. Beginner players tend to be non-reference, while experienced players, however, take dramatic risks and commit to their decisions. To write to them, you have taken a big step in that commitment.
To help you get the feeling that I have put together the discussions of deep emotions, the primary forces in most scenes. These discussions explore the physical sensations, sources, forms and dynamics of the deep emotions of the most common. They will stretch forward clarity, strength and polarity of your emotional repertoire.

Promote with these skills as tools for maintaining and sharing true feelings of the character to the isolation and control of emotional behaviors, and the desired intensity (important story), purity (knowing public / feel) and polarity (the protagonist-antagonist orientations ).
