Technobabble


Did you have particularly technical lines and were they much harder to learn than normal dialogue, did you enjoy learning those parts?

Picture I don�t think I particularly enjoyed learning the technical stuff because the things you can memorise most easily are the things that you associate and identify with. There�s a certain mnemonic play with memory � when you recognise the dialogue you�re speaking and you say well I can associate that with this or that with that. When you have dialogue that is incredibly technical and you have no frame of reference for it, then it�s like memorising foreign words, and trying to retain it.
