How To Memorize Lines FAST!

Here is the best and easiest way to memorize lines as an actor.

Learn how techniques and tricks actors can use to memorize lines for a TV show, movie, and the theater.

Memorizing lines tricks:

  1. Recording your lines
  2. Reading out loud
  3. Repetition tricks
  4. Follow the actor’s three-step plan – Focus on the character’s wants needs and desires
  5. Use the “memory palace” technique
  6. Don’t memorize lines at all

Recording your lines

memorize lines record yourself

The easiest way to learn lines for a movie or TV show is to record all the lines and play them back and say them along with the recording. You can record with your computer, phone, or even a recorder. However, it is very important to hear the cue (the line before yours), so you know when to say your line. Play it over and over and say your lines along with the recording. Then when you know it better, pause the recording after the cue line and say try to say your line. Listen to that line and see if you memorized it right and then try again.

Another way people learn lines including reading the script and covering your lines up. Here’s how you can do it. Read the cue line and then try to say your line while it is covered up. This works even better when you are working with a partner. Another unique way to memorize your lines includes looking at the cue line and then trying to type your lines without looking at the script.

Reading out-loud

Researchers at the University of Waterloo discovered reading information aloud to yourself improves your memory.

“This study confirms that learning and memory benefit from active involvement,” said Colin M. MacLeod, a professor and chair of the Department of Psychology at Waterloo, who co-authored the study with the lead author, post-doctoral fellow Noah Forrin. “When we add an active measure or a production element to a word, that word becomes more distinct in long-term memory, and hence more memorable.”

The study tested four methods for learning written information, like a script, including reading silently, hearing someone else read, listening to a recording of oneself reading, and reading aloud in real time. Results from tests with 95 participants showed that the production effect of reading information aloud to yourself resulted in the best remembering.

“When we consider the practical applications of this research, I think of seniors who are advised to do puzzles and crosswords to help strengthen their memory.  This study suggests that the idea of action or activity also improves memory.  And we know that regular exercise and movement are also strong building blocks for a good memory,” said Professor MacLeod.

Repetition

Need help learning how to memorize lines fast? Recently, on Reddit, actors shared their best advice for learning how to memorize lines.

One user explained the best way to memorize lines revolves around repetition. “Repetition of lines can be helpful, sometimes just breaking it into chunks can be the best thing to do, slowly learn one line, then add another one or two. After that, try combining all 3. rinse and repeat, so on so forth until you complete the entire speech. Otherwise, if you bounce lines of friends, that can sometimes help.”

Another user commented, “I find that writing the lines down one by one and memorizing each word that way to be more helpful than verbal memorization, as I tend to picture the script in my mind sometimes when I get stuck, and being able to picture it as a paragraph in my handwriting works better. I usually end up filling 3-6 pages, back to back, adding words each time I write. I also like to challenge myself and write it in different fonts and at different speeds, so that I know I’ve got it.”

Then, there’s the Rude Goldberg technique that focuses on concentrating on why you are saying what you are saying.

“I do a “Rube Goldberg” technique that seems to work: Start with line one, and notice something in it that gives you a reason to say line two, and so on. That’s how we speak and write anyway. One thought leads to the next. I know this sounds basic, but play with the idea of what and how you notice; and use all of your senses. Think of everything in the circumstance that could lead the character to the next thought. Usually, it helps to have a trigger word in each line.”

Follow a Three Step Plan

Memorize Lines Three Step Plan

 Like the Pimsleur method of learning new languages, repeating the same words over and over and over will burn them into your brain.

Second, internalize the storyline and your character’s wants, needs, desires, etc. at any given point in the story. If you know the story and know what you want in critical places, it will aid in your memorization — and also save your ass if you drop a line.

Third – blocking helps with memorization tremendously. Linking the words you say with walking stage L, or entering, exiting, answering the phone, etc. will cement them in your memory. Associate the physical with the verbal.

The “Memory Palace” Technique

Memorize Lines Memory Palace

Many feature films have pages upon pages of dialogue; Not to mention five-minute monologues. Often this is extremely stressful and hard to recall all the information.

But, here are two steps to helping you remember all of the lines of dialogue.

  1. Turn general, boring things that you would not usually remember into something that you can recall and more visual.
  2. Find a place to store your mental images i.e., your “memory palace.“

Consider your memory palace as a mental image of your home. There’s a kitchen, bathroom, living room, and bedrooms. Each piece of information that you are trying to memorize is created into a mental image and then placed into your home. The more images, the bigger your home gets.

For instance, if you have a dialogue between you and another character. Break up parts of the script into mental images, and feelings. Then envision those mental images inside a house. As you continue through your script, continue to add mental images inside your memory palace.

When you need to recall your lines go back to your mental palace, and re-envision those mental images as parts of the memory palace; This will help you remember tons of lines, dialogue, and boring information that you would not usually be able to.

This technique can be used in more than just acting. It can help you memorize telephone numbers, names, and other information that is usually boring, or difficult to recall.

Overall: The key is to make your images the most outrageous images you can think of for your script — the more outrageous, the better.

Or…Try not memorizing lines?

Memorizing Lines

A new generation of actors can no longer remember their lines, Bill Nighy said, as he criticized the “discourtesy to their fellow professionals.”

Bill Nighy has a long history in Hollywood working on some of the biggest movies including Harry Potter, Pirates of the Caribbean and Hot Fuzz. A brief look at his IMDB page you will see probably one of the hardest working actors in the game. That said, he is not impressed by his fellow actors.

The award-winning actor said it has become cool for actors to deliberately refuse to learn their lines ahead of time, mistakenly believing it will improve their performance.

Arguing actors must refocus their attention on performing correctly. Nighy said the trend had been pushed by actors who “don’t want to do their homework.”

Asked for his advice for young actors, he said: “If you’re doing anything, whether it’s a play or a film, learn every single word that you have to say backward forwards and sideways before you go into a rehearsal room and before you go on a film set.

“That might sound like an obvious thing, but it’s not currently: there is a fashion for not knowing your lines.

“It’s been invented by people who don’t want to do their homework, even as a creative choice.

“You will not become imprisoned by intonations, and therefore it’s a discourtesy to your fellow professionals. “That’s a piece of bull—t from people who don’t do their homework.

“That’s an important thing to know. That’s as important a thing I could say.”

He added: “You can’t rehearse with a book in your hand. And you can’t go and be on the sides of a film set and not know your lines until someone turns the camera.

“There is no lightning. Nothing’s going to strike.

“Rehearsal is not the enemy of spontaneity. The idea is the process is you say the lines over and over and over and over and over again until you can give the impression that you’ve never said them before and it’s just occurred to you. That’s the gig.

“It’s entered the language in a very deep way. Professionals will advise young actors not to learn. It’s got that bad.”

Overall

Everyone memorizes differently, so it is good to try different techniques to see what works best.

But, the best thing you can do before you head on set is to do speed through with the other actors. Sit or stand together and go through the lines as quickly as possible. Have someone mark down the lines you miss and read them over and over before you go on.

Talents will be compensated $120/day.Details for the movie have not been released. To audition for a role in the upcoming feature film, check out the casting call breakdown below.

“Swan Song” Feature Film Casting Call

Please read carefully, entirely, and follow all directions in order to be submitted.

We are helping to cast a SAG Ultra Low Budget film in the Sandusky area. We will be doing video submissions only right now, no session. Please look at the breakdown below and if you can work local to Sandusky and are interested, please follow the submission instructions below.

Project: “Swan Song” feature film
Location: Sandusky, OH
Shoot Dates: June 17th-July 8th
Pay: $120/day + 10% agent fee
Submission Date: As soon as possible

Breakdown:
The director is looking for an authentic, typical Ohio resident feel in all of these roles.

Gertie — 80s, Female, former client of Pat’s who now suffers from Alzheimer’s in the same nursing home. Her long hair was once the most beautiful in town.

Josiah — 40s, Male, hunky farmer whose lean muscles come from years of hard work. Josiah has a polite, old-fashioned neighborly warmth.

Lyle —25-35, Male, disheveled and disengaged gas station cashier who is probably stoned right now.

Female Customer — 40s, on her way back to Sandusky, more town than country.

RoRo — 35, Female. African-American, sassy and successful hair salon owner.

Ben — 30’s, Male. Earthy, scruffy gardener who radiates Zen energy.

Rite Aid Clerk — 40-60, Female. Working class woman who hasn’t changed her curling-ironed hair since the 1970s (or is it the 80s?!).

Crusty Cab Driver — 25-50, Male or Female. Takes no shit from anyone.

Silver Haired Bear — 50-65, Male. Sexy charismatic guy from the gay bear community.

Nurse – 30-50, Female. Caring but commanding.

Sherman Ransom – 40s. Male. Nervous, impatient, deadpan funeral director.

Eunice – Male, any ethnicity, 60+ years. Weathered but well-moisturized, “Eunice” is Billy Gene Taylor’s former drag name. Mister Pat’s best friend from back in the day, fabulously flamboyant Eunice refuses to grow old. On the surface, he’s a scream – but down deep Eunice feels lonely.

Dustin – 30s. Dashing, preppy, WASPy gay orphan who comes from money. Dustin grew up in small-town Sandusky but came out when he was fourteen and never looked back. Type-A personality with a thriving business in Columbus, Dustin is a demanding perfectionist just like his Grandma Rita.

Sue – 50-ish. Former one-time client of Pat’s, whose hairstyle gave Sue a rare moment of confidence. Mousy Sue is the type of person no once notices. Maternal and kind, Sue puts everyone else’s needs ahead of her own. One strong scene with lead.

Shaundell – African American, 25-45. Sandusky born and raised, registered nurse who works the day shift in a nursing home. Practical and no nonsense, Shaundell quite enjoys the little game of telling her patient Pat what to do and him not doing it.

Gabriel – 20s. Super attractive and fit small-town gay bar bartender. Gabriel appears to be the typical Millennial who is more interested in his cellphone than learning about gay history from an older generation. But, in the end, Gabriel gains an appreciation for his legendary forefather. Two strong scenes with lead.

Scottie – 35 – 40. Warm and friendly, beer drinking, Cleveland Browns-loving, typical Ohio dad next door (married to Evie). Probably voted for Trump but would give you the shirt off his back. Several nice scenes with lead.

Evie – 35. Fun-loving, loud, bawdy, beer-drinking mom next door who is always the life of the party (married to Scottie). Her husband and son are her world. That, and Bud Light. Several nice scenes with lead.

Mr. Walter Shanrock – 55-75. Old money, conservative, condescending small-town lawyer. Two key scenes with lead.

Ms. Velma – African-American, 25-45. Insecure, small-town drag queen who is gonna make it big someday. Pivotal scene with lead.

Janie – 70+. Spunky and weathered farmer’s widow. Still lives on the same land where she was born. One key bittersweet scene with lead.

Tristan – late teens-early 20s. Super fashionable gender-fluid gay kid with an attitude but the talent to back it up.

“Stranger Things” David Harbour Says What Motivates Him as an Actor

0

Actor David Harbour shares tips for actors.

Despite being known for playing Jim Hopper on Netflix’s “Stranger Things”, David Harbour has had a nearly twenty-year career as an actor. He also stars in the biggest film role of his career in the title role of the reboot of “Hellboy”. In an interview with GQ, Harbour spoke about how he might be playing a comic book character on screen, but his acting comes from a different place.

Harbour plays Hellboy in the new movie. He points out that he’s not a typical action film type. He says, “You don’t hire me because you want The Rock. I’m more of a psychological actor.”

While Harbour plays a huge character, he admits that being an on-screen everyman is what got him interested in acting in the first place. He says, “The trend is for us to work out. Then stand up on the screen and dazzle the world with godlike perfection. But I got into acting because of Walter Matthau. I like the dudes who are less-than-capable seeming, who then overcome odds. That’s much more dramatic, but we have to battle narcissism on every level – this navel-gazing self-love. As artists, the primary purpose is to reach out to the discomfited and to say to the comforted that, maybe, you should feel a little more discomfort. But it’s becoming harder to do that.”

Sopranos Prequel “Newark” is Now Casting Protestors

The Sopranos prequel “Newark” is now casting talent to work on a scene filming on Tuesday, May 7th through Friday, May 10th in Paterson, New Jersey. Casting directors are looking for African American men and women to play 1967 protestors for the movie.

About “The Many Saints of Newark”:

The Sopranos is getting a prequel. Ending in 2007, “The Sopranos” made HBO a household name. The show won 21 Primetime Emmys and five Golden Globes. David Chase, “The Sopranos” creator, showrunner, writer and producer is leading the movie. He wrote the script with Lawrence Konner, a Sopranos staff writer.

The Many Saints of Newark is set amid the 1967 Newark riots, which Livia was seen watching live on television during a flashback in the episode “Down Neck”.

There were over a hundred race riots across America in what was dubbed “The Long Hot Summer of 1967”, as tensions boiled over as African Americans continued to face discrimination. In Newark, the start for the riot was one that still shocks the city today is the beating of a black man by police.

“That was a time when the African-Americans and the Italians of Newark were at each other’s throats,” Deadline notes, “and among the gangsters of each group, those conflicts became especially lethal.”
