Character isn't something you were born with and can't change, like your fingerprints. It's something you weren't born with and must take responsibility for forming.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
You can't form a character without being completely comfortable with who you are as a person.
I don't think anyone can do any character that doesn't have at least some ounce of themselves in it. You are who you are, and your brain is drawing on things that you've experienced.
Especially when you play a character for so many years, the character ends up reflecting a lot of who you are and I think I've changed a lot since then, but that represented a lot of who I was as a teenager.
Every character when born is a stereotype.
I think it's important to change and not be associated with your character too much.
When you put your characters in a dire situation, they often do things that surprise even you, so you have to go back and revise your original conception of who they are.
Creating characters is like throwing together ingredients for a recipe. I take characteristics I like and dislike in real people I know, or know of, and use them to embellish and define characters.
Because characters are your creations, you are the one who ultimately gets to decide their fate.
Character, I am sure, lies in the genes.
Your image isn't your character. Character is what you are as a person.
