PUTTING YOUR CHARACTERS IN THE HOT SEAT

What is the hot seat technique? How can you apply this to the next script that you write to create interesting characters?

   The hot seat technique is placing the actors on a chair in the middle of a stage. This is done regardless of how big or small their role is. Once they've sat down they have become that character. Then they begin answering questions and that way the characters get more flesh on their bones. The better you know your characters the more believable they will be. This can help me give more heart and mind to my characters.
