do you lose yourself when playing a character in acting?

Curious about working directly with me? Set up a free strategy session and find out if you're a fit: bit.ly/20withsarah My classes are for actors who are serious about working on their craft, who care deeply about storytelling and are ready to be challenged. Please do not reserve a time unless you know you can make it.
I don’t think you really “lose yourself” in a role nor do I want you to.
Instead of hoping you will magically transform or morph into an entirely new person, can you really think of their life as yours? What if there was no distance at all? What if it was actually vital that you never lose yourself?
In this class clip, I talked a bit about how to do that- and encouraged the actor to build the story and connections that will justify her actions in the scene. I also brought up using an “action palette” for her role and briefly laid out what that is in the description on the blog page on our site.
You might enjoy this idea of letting the role live a little closer to home, even when it feels so far away and dissimilar on the page.
