In deference to the candid response, no attempt was made to recored the powwow. However I have constructed the following collage of comments and thoughts in an effort to commuicate to you some of the findings. Though many of these points may seem basic to you, I think the fact that these were the issues that arose are very indicative of how basic they are not. These thoughts came from a diverse group of actresses. Actors perform the scene as they see it.
Directors make adjustments in a positive manner.
Nor are line readings helpful. Bad performances from little people can ruin your film. Any actor can react to a wall when it is necessary, but reacting to an actor who is reacting to them will always produce better work.v Individual, private and personal interactions are preferred. Physically approach your actor with your notes AND incidentals. Be in touch with the production manager with respect to space and food for actors.
