Form, Empathy and Character Play: 2026 Audio Confessions
The most compelling character discoveries are often made when a character is in crisis. The chaos of crisis feeds a plot, raises stakes, and deepens a creator’s connection to the material.
During this exercise, students created monologues using dictation as a generative method to explore their character in crisis. The process entailed recording unedited improvised confessional speeches, transcription, editing, and rerecording audio.
These Audio Confessions are a process-based exploration using an interdisciplinary generative method combined with character embodiment to further explore character.
