Last week I had an auditon for a Casino. I was to create a Character with no dialog, then 'freeze' frame for the characters signature. Motion on screen with no dialog. As an actor, your instincts have to be reliable. Sometimes you may take a risk and fail, but overall you need to know you can trust your gut. Only thing is, you have to use them (instincts) to keep them reliable. You have to learn to think and turn on a dime. My best advice for this flexablity is IMPROV! I'm not a big fan, but... it does help hone that inner judgement. If you don't have an improv class offered in your area, I suggest you invite some of your acting buddies over for some improv games. You will learn to use your inner promptings for all the characters you create.
