This always trips actors up: Intention vs Objective

Curious about working directly with me? Set up a free strategy session and find out if you're a fit: bit.ly/20withsa... My classes are for actors who are serious about working on their craft, who care deeply about storytelling and are ready to be challenged. Please do not reserve a time unless you know you can make it.
Sometimes the lingo in acting gets confusing. The word intention is defined online as “a thing intended; an aim or plan” so it makes perfect sense actors would think it’s the character’s want. But in acting, what the character wants is referred to as objective.
What the character wants (their objective) is directly related to intention, but it isn’t intention. It’s part of the triad of acting. And actually, the online definition “aim or plan” fits right in to how intention works. Watch the video to learn more.
I’m Sarah and what I do best is help actors get out of their heads and into the moment so they can book big jobs and tell stories that matter. We offer Zoom classes, private Zoom coaching sessions, audition coaching/prep, special workshops and on-set / performance consultant packages. Find out if you are a fit: bit.ly/20withsa...

[@anmasubagan33]

Thank you for this! Yet I can't help myself to think about this since I started reviewing beat changes. How is tactic different from intention?

[@RealActorsLab]

Tactic is really pretty much the same, I just now recommend using transitive verbs for your tactics. Hope that helps!
