“Unleashing Imagination: Alma Har’el’s Secret Blueprint for Boldly Transforming Stories into Stunning Adaptations”
Har’el discussed one example, a scene in which Cleo gives testimony to a television station and ends the scene in anger, flipping a chair. Har’el took a moment on set to stop and discuss the scene with the cast. While a burst of emotion can be a great button for a scene, she wanted to avoid stereotypes or cliches. After discussion, Ingram advocated for the emotional beat, saying it felt right for the character.
This moment of collaboration is a good reminder to writers that just because something is on the page doesn’t mean it’s set in stone, and the requests of an actor or director might necessitate some quick discussion or even a rewrite. Flexibility can serve you well.
