Relationships

A Relationship is emotional.  It's about your feelings toward someone. All relationships are really based on how you feel about the other person. And more than that: our feelings always come to the surface in response to some specific event or fact.  A lot of life in your acting will be stimulated by clearly defined relationships.
You see, there is a big difference between the formal relationship and the acting relationship and an acting relationship must be specifically defined. If it isn’t, it will only lead you to general behavior.  If you say, “This character is my best friend”, you must ask yourself, why specifically is he my best friend, and as always, you must use your imagination to relate this to something that has real meaning to you. Not made up.
We continue the same exercise as before, one person is in their room doing a meaningful activity while their partner comes to the door but now we accentuate the very specific relationship between the two actors which will give each of them a living point of view toward the other. All kinds of relationships are possible and this will allow you to explore all kinds of personal meanings.
Working on Relationships is one of my favorite parts of the actor’s process! I can’t wait!

Sincerley,
Steven Ditmyer
