👉 Tells engineering is the systematic process of identifying, analyzing, and mitigating specific behaviors or cues in actors that reveal their true emotions or intentions during role-playing or acting. These tells are subtle physical, vocal, or behavioral indicators that actors use to convey underlying feelings or hidden motives. Tells engineering involves understanding common tells, recognizing them in actors' performances, and developing techniques to either encourage or suppress these cues based on the desired outcome of a scene. By mastering tells engineering, actors and directors can create more authentic and nuanced performances, enhancing the realism and emotional depth of theatrical productions.
