Question: How can i learn my lines for a movie!?
I have really poor memory!. I struggle remembering things, particuarly song lyrics or instructions!. In a few weeks i have to learn my lines for a script for a small movie (eek!)
How can i remember my lines!? Any tips!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Repetition!. Go over the lines several times a day, as often as you can!. also get to know the plot for when you are on camera, so you at least know what your character /should/ say if you get really stuck!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

depending on how many u have u can write down ur cues and lines on flashcards and study them that way

what i do is just keep rereading it till u live and breath ur role/linesWww@QuestionHome@Com

I learn my lines by writing the first letter of each word down on a piece of paper and I just keep going over them!. For example;

The cat sat on the mat!.

T C S O T M!.
