Trader 6
my first character was trader 6, and with this chracter i had to do alot of reaserach behind it and and analyse what a stock trader is and how the act, i mainly did this by simply watching videos of traders at work and also watching films such as the wolf of wall street, and even though i had watched it many times before i could really focus into the characters and sort of savagary they all have in them, as i did more research i learnt that being in the stock market is a really dog eat dog world as everyone wants to be the top dog and make the most money, the way i pictured it was the more money you get the bigger balls you have. I also found out whilst in the reahersal process is that the whole show in general was very tetestorone full as in was mainly a male class and that really added to the atmosphere. As i got down the basics of my character i could now focus on him deeply and add character traits such as accents and the way he would move around the stage, my first insinct with this was to have a loud new york accent and move around the stage franticly, but as i read the lines of my character i found a much better suited role for my character "the chill trader" i accomplished this with the help of my directer and i started to use and californian accent and after that i really felt like i got to grips with my character.
