-
Listen: easier said than done, and that's exactly the point
-
Agreement: say yes and add something, don't reject ideas
-
Team Work: have a group mind, think of others
-
Don't Block: stealing jokes / not listening / changing topic
-
Relationship: focus on connection between characters, not just subject of scene
-
Initiation: who, what, when to set the scene
-
Point of View, Opinion and Intention: have them, these help express and build your character
-
Be in Character: maintain character throughout the scene
-
Don't Ask Questions: too many questions can make your partner do all the work
-
Make Active Choices: do something, don't be talking heads
