'Churlish messenger' is a phrase I should steal and use to excess. In any case, this highlights once again your acting talent when doing these. A great many monologues focus on naught but voice and recitation, sat upon a stool and speaking to the camera and that's all well and good, but that's not what the character in the scene in question is doing and the extra work you consistently put in covers the additional bases, so to speak. Here we see Viola talking to herself whilst struck by a series of dramatic revelations and going through a range of emotional reactions, before, after and during... and also chastising passing planes, as Shakespeare intended. That's more than speech but also the expressions, movements, glances et all, and it all comes together to make a fine and memorable monoglogue. A fine and proper costume as well, appropriate hair and dress for the man-posing protagonist. (It's interesting how you never really look the same from one video to the next, or even in the same video on some ocassions.)
Thank you☺️ I'm always trying my best to do justice to both the monologue and the character. It's kind of a funny story about the hair: I did want to cut it a little shorter (it was shoulder length before) but really messed up, so I went to my mom to have it fixed which resulted in an even worse hair cut. The hair was way to short for a bob but way to long for an actual short haircut, and that's why I decided to have it all cut off. I was just like: "Mom, I can't walk around looking like this, it looks ridiculous, just cut my hair the way my little brother wears his."
Julia. You new exactly the scene from Twelfth Night I was thinking. Very nice job with it. Going to go back and catch the rest of your work. Hope you keep coming with more content. Wonderful work, thanks.
