Crazy Theater Teacher's Weird Body Language Theory 

Thanks Studios!

hi becca!

"1 min ago" (FORTH!!!!)

awww ty 6th

Thank you Ms. Parham! 💙

I thought she said Bacon Head Sphere

@@BariumCobaltNitrog3n haha, roblox dipper

Lmao,they truly do follow these character spheres.

Side note - They especially fit since Becca mentioned that Vacant Head Spheres aren't less intelligent than Intellectual Head Spheres, which makes sense since Mabel isn't necessarily "dumber" than Dipper.

I think their both vacant spheres, intellectual spheres have more calmer movements and facial expressions, dipper however is constantly moving and expressing.

exactly- im either not looking at you to the point your second guessing if im paying attention or staring you down like i wish death apon you.....

@@mistermiss9093 yeah pretty much, there is no in between🤣

I have autism and ADHD so Yeah that fits me

yep

@@callmeaprilroseorisha404 me to but most the time it's eye contact all the way baby WO WO just so you.......I am a boy. 10 though so young including when watching bluey a (mostly) show for 4 year olds and younger. Edit:I actually have a hard time with eye contact sooo yeah

It feels like something more fitting for visual media though

agreed

I got your comment to 200 likes

I actually learned something similar to this too. They called leading with your head/chest/stomach/feet. We did a bunch of walking around with this to portray different characters but I wouldn't doubt you could do with sitting too.

I was about to say something about Jungian psychology but that is a thin line to connect.

Our names are similar

I think this whole “stereotyping people based off of a few mannerisms” thing is an example of what I call the tarot card syndrome. The descriptions are so broad or vague that they could apply to everyone to some extent, just like how tarot cards seem accurate because you kind of fit into each category. I dunno, just something I noticed.

I will mostly agree with that. It's good to know how certain types of characters would walk and interact. Even then characters don't usually fit perfectly into one of these. It's better to apply which of the features from these types fit the character. I think I mostly get what you are saying and we seem to have a similar enough opinion on this

I fit perfectly with heart sphere, but when I'm sitting on a sofa, not a chair, I take up the entire sofa.

@@deetycatcat I fit perfectly into the intellectual sphere other than the fact that I do tend to move a tie around a lot when I wear one

@@deetycatcat same…!

You are in the yes sphere

@@wilh3lmmusic and i wont sphere

so you are the chosen sphere

You are 100 % no, I will not pick. I will be equally all, sphere

The legendary SUS sphere ‘seriously unique spherist’ (sphere-ist)😊

Kinda like how stage makeup is really exaggerated and over-the-top-looking up-close so that it reads well for the audience. I dig it.

Reminds me of the four humors. Cracked did an After Hours video on it years ago, looking it up its also referred to as "temperaments", probably why your comment reminded me of it. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dtsmluPK7Ug.html

I ask around: Isnt Seond Thoughts coverage of the Housing Crisis and Workerclass-Struggles interesting? What do you think about it?

@@loturzelrestaurant Listen, dude: Go ask on a subreddit or something. What you’ve just said has nothing to do with the subject at hand and it’s quite rude to interrupt like this.

@@loturzelrestaurant I’m reporting you for spam.

That’s pretty cool, I like that.

My teacher had a similar thing she taught us but I don't think it was called a sphere? It was something to do with what part of your body you lead from and how it described your personality, although the chest was for confidence and the stomach was the more happy/lovable teddy bear type person and the hips were for the more flirtatious bunch

agree, same for the myers brigg personality test, it's flawed, but it can make for a good basis for a fictional character.

Yo 🔥ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rdJ9bsN7JAw.html,

I see this more for animation vs theater. Nonverbal storytelling is HUGE in film and tv and animation and live action. Being able to speak with your body language is important. We do it all the time even if subconsciously. And animation is able to manipulate that in ways live action just isn't able to if that makes sense lol. Feels weird to say since IN LIFE we do a lot of subconscious talking through body language, but animation just amps that up a bit. Yet keeps it subtle too. You could watch a scene in Arcane or Lion King on mute and still get the gist of what's going on emotionally through a characters body language.

Mhm

NAH LITERALLY I WAS THINKING THAT TOO 😂😂😂

i was thinking about that too!! i’m autistic and that’s the one i resonated the most with me

@@ellaqyk SAME I think I may have it to

When I was watching her talk about the vacant head sphere, I was basically thinking: Ah yess, the literal embodiment of ADHD/ADD(and anything else)

@@Iris.O SAME

Yeah that’s pretty smart! It might be helpful for high schoolers to use one of the spheres as a foundation, then add more character-specific mannerisms on top, or change a few things as needed, or something like that

*Teens

This is exactly what I was thinking Like, if you're teaching people who have no prior education or experience, then yes, this is a very good way of introducing the concept body language as a part of characterization. It's not perfect, but it gives the idea of how body language can tell you what a person is like before they even say a word.

Kanajjammanahuauwnnwsnhsua got it

So its the Hogwarts house method if it made any sort of sense? Suiting them into a category lets them really get into character.

I'm probably gonna use it in my writing

its GREAT for animation PERFECT ACTUALLY :) this one character i like drawing is definitely an intellactual character :)

I'm studying this for animation, and boy there's so much potential!!!!!!

Huh, that makes sense!

Oh certainly, though I highly doubt that they would take this extreme of only four personalities can have these body language

This is exactly what i was thinking, i did alot on it school and it seems as though the 'head spheres' is just a simplified version of commedia del'arte

see i said autistic people (because yeah im probably autistic and almost all my friends are autistic and we r ALL like that) because ummmm yeah . maybe it’s just neurodivergent ppl we r holding hands in the vacant sphere ^_^

Me w/ adhd considering myself a vacant head sphere: How- How did you know?

Boy that is so accurate I have ADHD and I will have no clue why I'm doing what I'm doing. I'll just do it anyway cuz I feel like it needs to be done then just sitting around

I fit with vacant (besides the bounce walk) and i have ADHD soooo i agree with this.

Yeah I was gonna say 😂 that just sounds like me

Are you really a theatre kid if you don't sit in your chair abnormally? I will sit on the ledge of the counters and on the small floor spaces.

Wait this is exactly like me-

I totally match the vacant sphere lmao, but sometimes I'll adopt other traits, like the heart sphere's "empathetic" eyes or the intellectual sphere's intimidating, bored stare

I Match this 75%

honestly same

Eh, as someone who has done some writing and has created a lot of characters for Dungeons & Dragons (tm) (Yes, it's the ampersand and not the word "and"), I prefer create their Core Wound, Want, and Need, and then flesh them out based on that. Makes for much more interesting characters because flawed people are more fun to watch than those who have their shit together. The RU-vid channel Film Courage has several excellent videos on the topic. The idea is that everyone has some sort of Core Wound or flaw that keeps them from being whole and happy. It can be something external (like the loss of a loved one) or internal (like having a phobia or being insecure). The details don't matter as much at this stage, as all of that can be fleshed out after the Wound/Want/Need is established. And they could have been previously a full and happy person. The next thing is the Want. This is what the person with the Core Wound thinks will heal that wound and make them healthy and whole again. Also, it's THE EXACT OPPOSITE of what will fix the character. Examples of Wants would be taking vengeance upon the person who murdered a love one or spending all of one's wealth to build a crazy house to appeal to the spirits of those who died at the hands of the device which made your family wealthy. (It's a thing, check out the Winchester Mansion.) The final thing is the Need. This is what really will really help to heal that Core Wound. For instance, if a person's core wound is they were recently dumped or divorced, their Want might be to try to get that person back and have everything go back to the way is was before. The Need will be along the lines of realizing that the relationship was toxic and never going to work out. Wants blind characters to their Needs. In this example, because the character is chasing their old love interest (and making everyone, including themselves, miserable in the process), they're blinded from seeing the person they really should be with. And until they realize their true Need of realizing how bad that relationship was, they'll never see the person they're supposed to be with. (By the way, this is the EXACT PLOT of a lot of RomCom movies, including 500 Days of Summer.) Once you've identified a character's Coue Wound/Want/Need, then you can start fleshing them out. Start with asking questions like "how did the character acquire the Core Wound", "how does the trauma of the Core Wound manifests itself", and "How did this change the character from before they had the Core Wound?" This will answer so many questions about the character in question, like "Do they have a nervous tick? (Fidgety Hands)" or "Does their posture reflect an aggressive or defensive stance (Posture and Walk)?" This is much better than those four, old Myers-Briggs Type Indicator rip-offs.

Writing more than character. It's a good way to communicate character through word choice.

I agree, I think I it’s actually a good starting off point and then you start to work around those confines, especially if you more attribute things to mood, this character feels more heart sphere right now, and yet she’s an intellectual sphere when she’s at work

I think she confused creative writing for theatre.

Yes yes same

Actually, stuff like this can work for analyzing people. Like how you can match certain personalities to say, the likelihood of someone having anxiety, or being an older or younger sibling, how their home life is, and so on. Body language is a huge part of that, and yes, these are based on generalized personality traits, but the thing is, they’re usually pretty accurate. They’re like the outline of a person, and while there are always details you can only see when you get to know them better, these traits 9/10 times stay the same.

same XD

Me and my mom, who was barely listening at the time, busted out laughing at it XD

@@dudeeee2015 I can agree to that too. Many autism people like me spend alot of time in their head, because they have a way bigger remembering ability, and also tend to just find the world boring to say it in a dumb way they focus on one thing they find the most interesting. While autism does not bring a lack of attention alone, that's an ADHD thing. I've got both.

Don't panic over stuff like that. It's okay not to "fit in" - at the end of the day, no one truly does, especially when talking about personalities.

That’s pretty interesting! I really like all the things you can do with animation. You can also exaggerate and squash and stretch characters to convey emotions and actions better too. It takes a lot of work, but if done right, it pays off.

@@justradicles4337 duuuude I LOVE ME SOME SQUASH AND STRETCH! I'm glad Sonic is bringing that back with the new Sonic Prime cartoon. It was done really well in the opening cinematic to Sonic Unleashed.

This. This puts into words one of the many reasons I adore animation. Also Arcane has such a great art style, omg.

Is it just me or is looking at eyes awkward? And often kinda distracting? Like when you listen accessing the world around you should be a given cause you listen with your ears not your eyes. The idea of staring directly at someone when they’re talking feels more rude than giving minimal eye contact. However, this could be a cultural difference since I’m pretty sure the uk is more focused on eye contact then your average person from America. Another thing to add would be neurology, certain neurologies focus on the eyes more than other neurologies like- say- that of someone who has adhd like me. And I will say that having adhd plays a huge part in not being able to keep eye contact. One time I actually got in trouble for something I didn’t do because I couldn’t keep eye contact and the teacher thought I was lying, I have since forgotten what I got in trouble for but I’m still a little upset by that. To be honest I didn’t actually realize that eye contact when talking was really such a normal trait since I always feel like it’s awkward as hell, just sitting there while someone is talking like 👁👄👁 I see into your soul, I know every sin you have committed, your address is 123 Sesame Street 45678, I get no enjoyment out of having a conversation with you and only talk with you to collect information about your life into our database to create more positive experiences in your life, I am in fact a robot and your eye color is #7f9fa1, “sorry, what were you saying? I zoned out”

@@ThatOneKatt I think the only time I keep a completely focused eye-contact is when I'm mad at someone and I want them to know it. As she said, it's more of an intimidation tactic.

@@ThatOneKatt yeahhh neurotypical eye contact standards suck

@@SunroseStudios yes it does. I will vaguely stare at someone's eyes but not really so I trick them into thinking that I look in their eyes. In reality I might stare at their forehead instead, way more comfortable then the eyes. When talking to other neurodivergent people I just don't make eye contact.
