My group created a role-on-the-wall for the character Brian. This technique enables
us to see what emotions our character is showing on the outside and what they
want other people to see them as, as well as what they are actually feeling on
the inside. We created them so we could pick apart the script by quoting what
other people said about Brian and quotes he said himself. This resulted in our
group gaining a deeper understanding of him as a character and what other
people perceived him as. This technique will really help with characterisation and performance because
you will clearly know what Brian wants to be like on the surface but you also
know what he is truly feeling.
I found out that by the end of the play the character
of Brian was actually on medication which was mentioned only by other people.
This made me realise he was not just unstable but was actually sick due to
the traumatic events which he had witnessed.
