We went through exercises like shake it out, “seven things,” and an “expert panel” where participants riff with a character and answer questions confidently using elements like obsession, posture, voice, prop, and action, including examples such as a parenting clarinet pitch and animatronic eagles at Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello. Participants discuss staying in character, using intention to avoid getting derailed, and channeling nervous energy to improve reads, with specific reminders such as avoiding using one’s voice for AI training without permission.
