  • Gosh, you're all so smart. I love reading these comments and your discussions! You're the best audience. ❤
  • When she called the Vacant Head Sphere and Intellectual Head Sphere "The Twins," I immediately thought of Dipper and Mabel from Gravity Falls.

    “they have the ability to hold eye contact they just don’t want to” I love that you pretty much described autism, and eye contact in one sentence

    I feel like the spheres thing is good for writing fictional characters, specifically fantasy / cartoon characters. It adds extra personality to their actions while not being extremely complicated
  • Something about these "character spheres" actually does strike a chord. I remember learning about leading with the hips/head/chest and how sitting on different parts of a seat have something to do with character in my high school theater classes. I think we called them something different, but for the life of me I couldn't tell you what.

    3:59 She's got an autograph from Tom AND Jerry?! I am vacant-head-sphering so hard right now!
  • @MikaMarie8
    I fit so perfectly with the Vacant Sphere 💀
  • While it's practically impossible to put a real-life person into strictly one of these spheres, I do see how this can be used to help characterization in theatre. How a character walks and interacts with their environment can tell the audience a lot about them, so this makes sense in terms of acting. Real life however, no :)

    0:49 “will sphere!.” *proceeds to slap someone “KEEP MY WIFE NAME OUT OF YOUR MOUTH!”

    I'm mostly a Vacant with a few parts from Intellectual and Heart, but now you've got me wanting to make a whole Venn Diagram to put a little more to this theory
  • I swear with every video- Rebbeca and her videos are slowly becoming a classic cartoon and I’m all in on it
  • The spheres was also taught when I took movement classes in university, but they were called temperaments. Not so much with the thought "everyone is the emphasis of one", but "keep these four charismatics constant when playing a character and the audience won't be confused, even if you're playing multiple characters without costume change".
  • My traits mainly fit into vacant, but I have the “overcomplicates everything in a formal way” trait, as well as the walk of will sphere when I am in a rush, and will often take up the entire seating arrangement.

    my thingys: walk: Intellectual Sphere eye contact: Intellectual Sphere/Heart Sphere (it’s a in between) sitting: Heart Sphere hand gestures: Intellectual/Heart
  • So, from what I’m being taught. Vacant head spheres have ADHD. Intellectual head spheres are teachers pets. Heart spheres are our aunts when they come for a visit. And will spheres are basically ninth graders. I would love to see a show with all these head spears together.

    My acting teacher had something similar to this. The difference was she had us take a test that would determine what we were. I got exactly 25% in each of the 4 categories.

    I once saw 2 people do a staring contest for so long their eyes were almost completely red and tears streaming down both of their faces
