Translating Notes on Size:
Measuring Connection On-Camera

Shift from measuring size to considering FULLNESS Getting a note of 'Too big' or 'Too small': both are just symptoms of the same thing; a lack of grounded connection to impulse and your need of your scene partner.

This is why I’ve moved away from giving notes about “size” and shifted towards helping actors tap into their fullness. Performances — depending on the framing and given circumstances - might need to be “big” or “small” but neither in or of themselves are inherently problematic when the actor is connected and filling the frame with their authentic thoughts, spontaneity, and impulse.
