Stuff we use:
CAMERA - This is the camera we have used to film 90+% of our interviews (over 200 interviews and counting) It continues to be our workhorse - amzn.to/2u66V1J
LENS - Most people ask us what camera we use, no one ever asks about the lens which filmmakers always tell us is more important. This lens was a big investment for us and one we wish we could have made sooner. Started using this lens at the end of 2013 - amzn.to/2tbtmOq
AUDIO
Rode VideoMic Pro - The Rode mic helps us capture our backup audio. It also helps us sync up our audio in post amzn.to/2t1n2hx
Audio Recorder - If we had to do it all over again, this is probably the first item we would have bought - amzn.to/2tbFlM9
LIGHTS - Although we like to use as much natural light as we can, we often enhance the lighting with this small portable light. We have two of them and they have saved us a number of times - amzn.to/2u5UnHv
COMPUTER - Our favorite computer, we each have one and have used various models since 2010 - amzn.to/2t1M67Z
EDITING - We upgraded our editing suite this year and we’re glad we did! This has improved our workflow and the quality of our work. Having new software also helps when we have a problem, it’s easy to search and find a solution - goo.gl/56LnpM

You can't say that with a straight face🤣 you literally have no evidence for that just because someone gets emotional about it doesn't mean there living it I've written characters and cried sometimes about the things they've gone through, because I imagined them and pictured it perfectly...

[@KyleLazorko]

Film Courage I have to commend you. This, among all of your content, was extremely enlightening! Absolutely phenomenal how Mark does not let up on this Jill persona. The level of depth and the rawness of the questions, the prodding of information, is what really makes this so enjoyable to watch and learn from. Karen even seems unsure of the answers herself at times, which I think helps dive deeper into herself, and Jill as a character. I have been watching your content for almost a year+ and my love of screenplays and writing has been enhanced and reinvigorated by the content this channel produces. Phenomenal. Hope to be in here in one of these 2 chairs in the future. ❤️

Surprisingly, I was CURIOUS about what's Jill going to say next, super CURIOUS about what would be revealed next, how is this character going to unfold? That made the way you revealed Jill interesting to me the entire time. Honestly, in a voyeuristic way. And she revealed aspects of myself and so many people that I know.

[@richardadesmond]

Was anyone else itching for the reverse shot of Karen during the interrogation? I was :) she was great. This was such a surprise, so interesting, thank you very much.. This is great teaching from Mark, he's so on point, every writer should incorporate this, this is how you get more authentic characters out. I do this kind of thing in my head, it works best for me that way, I record what I hear onto my phone and then transcribe it, I know a writer who does this out loud to himself,....it's so important, thanks again. From my experience, (I'm not an expert) ...don't think about what you're saying/writing, let it come out like improv, like in "whose line is it anyway" thinking about it destroys the authenticity/the possibilities, it's hard at first to let that happen if you're a more thinking/conceptual writer, I struggled for months and months but stay with it....it's SOOOOOO worth it, it's a revelation. Thanks again for this

[@dustyhills8911]

I realized that I already do this to some degree in my outlining process, in my head. I come up with 10-20 exposition scenes that will never make the script, just to get to know my main characters. Seeing it like this makes me want to gather up some local actors and play around... on Zoom of course. #stayhome

[@goinxnginx]

This technique actually fills in the blanks that even an extensive self preparation might leave. What a great breakthrough this appears to be. As a male actor, I allowed myself to be Jill, and the interrogation created emotional and visceral reactions and discoveries (surprises) as my character. I love this approach. I almost felt completely ready to do a scene as Jill.

[@samauthor342]

It always surprises me how real made-up characters can be. Like they’re being created in some other dimension by us just thinking about them. So bizarre. So fascinating. Ask any writer and they’ll probably say that they actually don’t know exactly what their characters will do until they decide to do it. I love this process of getting to know them better. Thanks Mark. And Film Courage.

[@filmcourage]

Great comment, thanks for posting Sam.

Be careful using this technique. I was introduced to, and interacted with, my protagonist and now she stalks me everywhere I go. I called the police and they told me that it was all in my mind.

[@Xero_Wolf]

I love this. I'm not a writer but I'm a character artist and I like to put myself in my characters mindset from time to time.

[@CRanunculus]

My "characters" are way too aware of my real-world existence and that I'm trying to write. If I try to do this upfront, they'll just straight-up lie to me :/ At the risk of sounding like a nut job, most of the characters that people think they dream up are aspects of their own personality with certain levels of autonomy. If you must learn about your own characters, take your time and not be too pushy. Approach with sensitivity and a willingness to learn. Remain curious - but genuine. When a concept is difficult to grasp or grapple with, accept it as is and don't try to push a narrative.

[@Angeli-Kay]

This comment is old but it was hilarious to see this bizarre issue is dealt with by someone other than me! I think I too have written my characters to be way too aware of my tricks to spill their guts like this. I tried making interviews like these as writing exercises to pinpoint their goals and such. For one of my characters it works well enough, but for the others I can only imagine them refusing to speak or walking out each time. If I forced this scenario to play out it would only lead into disingenuous responses. The autonomy is important. So yeah, I’m convinced some characters are too tricky for this to work and need to be fully realized naturally through your writing process by bits of information you pick up over time.

[@JohnMoseley]

After thinking about it for a day, I realise this video also reminds me of what I know about Eric Rohmer's technique. Apparently, he would start with a loose script, would cast the movie and then interview the actors extensively about their own lives and attitudes, then rewrite the script based on these interviews. I think you can often hear it in the dialogue: the characters often talk very much as if they're being interviewed, describing with remarkable articulacy the kinds of people they like and don't like, how they make decisions etc. In one of Rohmer's early films, La Collectionneuse, the star, Patrick Bauchaud and another of the actors were members of a kind of pretentious, dandyish Parisian art group along with the director Phillippe Garrell. The film itself is a brilliant skewering of narcissistic vanity and the other actor commented, 'Rohmer used the film to make fun of us.' It' does seem that way, but Bauchaud, commenting years later after an extensive acting career that took him to Hollywood, was much more generous. He said it was his first film and he didn't know how lucky he was at the time to work with a director who would go so deep in his work with the actors.

[@krixiaevans6025]

This is brilliant for lawyers interrogating victims of abuse.

[@janetlowden5960]

So this is what co dependency looks like. Jill is so attached and feeling like she is Jacks only chance. She is failing to protect herself and her daughter from an alcoholic who is doing nothing to improve himself, make a living, gain a skill. He has no goals except being comfortable in a recliner in front of a TV. Move on.

I wish that he had asked her more about her background and childhood. How does a woman end up with a guy like Jack? What kind of craziness did she go through to end up tied to him and with her grandmother (as opposed to her parents)? Did Jill have some sort of weird trauma.

[@fourmoyle]

This is amazimg...this inteview almost made me tear up for Jill. RUN GIRL.

[@williambartholmey5946]

Wow. That character interrogation could have been a transcript from any random Loveline call from 20ish years ago. I heard dozens that were shockingly similar. That's not a knock, btw. It was a great portrayal of a confused woman in possible peril.

[@filmcourage]

[@jfrancis6191]

This was absolutely beautiful. I really felt it. You two created something magic here.

[@filmcourage]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@neurojitsu]

Fascinating: it felt how I imagine therapy might (with a sociopathic therapist that lacked all empathy and interpersonal skills)! It reminds me of a therapeutic approach by Frank Farrelly (not sure of the spelling) called "provocative therapy" that used similar techniques of playing back to a person their own words and thoughts, often in an ironic or humorous tone... effectively provoking the reflection, "is that really true?" I think pyschologists call the underlying (unconscious) justifications that surface in inner speech, confabulation.

[@Briansongman]

This upset me. Not Jill being conflicted but the interrogation being performed like heart surgery with a hack saw. After all Jill is an actual part of the person being questioned

[@neurojitsu]

@@Briansongman I understand where you're coming from, and it's been a while since I saw this video so my memory has faded... but speaking in general terms, I think it is the intent of the questioner and the way he or she carries that intent that determines the reaction of the recipient. "Good" intent can be understood - in an embodied, unconscious way - as such, even when clothed in provocative language. But malicious intent, even wielded only with words, can do much harm. As I understand it, Farrelly's "provocative therapy" is akin - in its mechanism - to that of humour. Humour has a way of gently prodding at the truth, without being threatening. But it takes a great deal of skill to pull it off... and onlookers might still be alarmed, since an edited KZbin video is just too removed from the context of a real conversation and the 'real' chemistry of a relationship (that has a hidden history beyond the clip we are watching) which is only really discernable "in the presence" of those people.

[@Briansongman]

@@neurojitsu thanks for the reply. The questioner was certainly exposing some unseen (by the interviewee) truths. But having been pinned to the wall in real life in this way, which I felt was tantamount to being bullied, this just made me rather agitated.

[@neurojitsu]

@@Briansongman thanks, my triggers are different but the feeling is familiar... your message landed in a synchronous way, as I was just listening to Ezra Klein's podcast interview with Dr Bessel van der Kolk. Kolk researches trauma, and the relationship between memory and bodily immersion/experience in trigger situations... his thesis about trauma is basically that the body remembers, and the mind hides!

Stanislavsky and Sanford Meisner were geniuses in the world of acting and bringing out the truth and life in characters. And so is this man.

Just amazing! This channel has a lot of interesting information, and very useful techniques to apply, not jus theory floating around. I also like a lot Mark W. Travis. I just was left with a question and that is, how can I apply this technique if I am on my own, like no actors, directors, writters or seasoned people to hel me with the interaction/interrogation? Thank you very much!

[@filmcourage]

Thanks Andrés, we certainly appreciate that. Great question, and maybe some others can offer their answers. One thought we had is study this technique further. What kinds of questions is Mark asking? What we noticed is that once Mark discovers the conflict in Jill's life, he pushes her up against that conflict. Later on, he eases up and goes the other way. We imagine you could try that on your own. Push the character or characters to their limits and then find the right level for what works in that scene or sequence of your story.

Thank you! Thoroughly enjoined this. One comment, though. He did inject ideas into the character. If he had attacked Jill about her role in the bad relationship. If he had focused on her infidelities that drove Jack to drinking, her reluctance to go to night school, and her hate for her conniving grandmother, the whole thing would have moved onto another track all together. It is enlightening, though, as usual!

[@TheJobieadobe]

Wow, this was INTENSE and genius!

[@terrylaguardia6838]

A good supporter of a real or fictional character will show that the self-care you thought you couldn’t even dream of anymore can be very real. There’s a kind of validation that’s therapeutic in this interrogation process because it’s done with respect for her potential. Throughout the interrogation I was afraid he might demolish the scraps of self-esteem she might still have in her but he did the opposite: he raised her self-esteem to the point where it was clear she could very well love herself - and Mia - even more now.

[@JohnMoseley]

Jill's story quickly became very interesting to me. Could really see it as a novel or screenplay. I love character work like this and it seems to me one of the best ways into a story. I'm currently reading Perls, Hefferline and Goodman's book 'Gestalt Psychotherapy' and there's an exercise towards the end of the practical section that Mark's exercise reminds me of. I found it a fascinating, deep insight into character. You imagine numerous people from your life sitting opposite you one by one, and you tell them, with total frankness, what you think of them. What came out for me was often very surprising. There were people I'd never realised I disliked though I had good reasons to dislike them, people I liked much more than I'd ever realised, people who made me inexplicably sad, people suddenly realised were much more troubled than I'd noticed. On and on. It also brought home to me just what a huge variety of different characters and attitudes there are in the world. And it also taught me, as the book's authors intended, a lot about myself and how I treat myself. I really recommend it.

[@JohnMoseley]

Keith Johnstone, the godfather of UK improvisation, has a great one: he describes working with an audience member who claims to have too little imagination to think up a character. OK, he says, I'm thinking of a character, ask me questions and try to find out about it. He has no character in mind. The audience member starts asking him things and he just says yes to everything. Once the character's fleshed out, he says, look, you thought of all that, I didn't do anything.

Is the question who is earning money regular? How are they paying for food? Mark said that he didn't want to impose solutions, but if i was creating character i would ask myself would Jill get up the courage to sit down with Jack and have a real conversation about their future? Can she give kid to grandma for babysitting? If jack is jealous can he also enroll to class so he would be there all time. And also I am not sure if this are questions to be asked, but do you need school diploma for cooking classes? Is Jill preparing meals in house as her way of learning the craft? And did she think about working in a restaurant as a assistant first so she could learn craft? And if i presume that she takes action based on this question and questions in videos and Jack reacts to that in his way, is that a story, the drama betwen them and other characters ? Hope for answer, great content!
