Oscar Moments.
Introduction
At unexpected times during this scene you will get to see the Oscar Moments that impressed the Academy.
Description
Oscar Moments is an overlay of an open scene. Performers in this handle will be cued by the host to take focus and engage in an overwrought presentation of acting prowess. The moment could be a soliloquy or a monologue. Whatever the performer is endowed with the display should assist the narrative arc and reveal information about the character or the story.
The easiest way to manage this is for the host to call out Oscar moment Leslie for Best Supporting Actor.
Gimmicks
- Oscars for technical awards like best lighting, best makeup or best special effects.
- Zany Oscar Moments like Best Interpretive Dance in an Animated Film.
Variations
- Soliloquy – all the same narcissism with but as if the Bard was calling it.
Credits
