An Actor's Checklist

Following questions serve as an exercise every actor must go through in the process of character development. To me, they are often a part of daily checklist. Sometimes, such is life, you will pose these questions to yourself and hopefully find the answer.

1). Who am I ? (Location, time, season, etc.)
2). Where am I going? (entering / exiting a scene.)
3). What do I want when I get there ? (in a scene.)
4). Who do I want it from? Who am I talking to?
