Then we started doing, going over lines and she would, you know, read, she's an Australian woman herself. And so she would read a lot of my lines to me. And then like, I feel like I also have like a, I think having a music ear is,
helped me in a lot of ways but it kind of also was like I was really my biggest bully at the time just because I was so hot I would like nitpick every single little sound that would come out of my mouth and then I would talk to the dialect coach about it I'm like I are you sure this isn't sounding right that take was kind of that take was bad and she's like no I don't you know I and we would just really talk it out each take and it was really like uh um it was very detailed um
Which I wanted to be because I really didn't. It's such a gigantic accent to take on that I didn't want to disappoint people and the people of Australia.
Yeah. Yeah. I was deciding what I was going to do beforehand. I was like, I've never had to do this kind of accent before. So I really was like, there was no real formula for, for this or for me specifically, or I didn't know what was going to be right for me. Um, and I kind of thought about that. I just don't know if something about that felt like, I don't think I can actually do that.
Cause there's so much of the like working experience and being on set is, is to me really the community and, and, the family that you build when making these things. And it would be really hard for me to feel like I'm really connecting with my peers and the people at work if I'm, like, in the accent the whole time. Because it's not who you actually are.
And that would be really hard for me. And, yeah, so I didn't. I stayed away from doing that, so I was popping in and out. And I think I had, yeah, like, I go back to the music thing because I think I really was memorizing it. almost like a song and like the accent felt like singing like notes to me in a lot of ways. Um, so yeah, but I, I, I was going in and out and that was fun.
Like it wasn't, it was, that wasn't too hard. I think it was just like the emotional journey that, that I had to go on and that show was probably the hardest part from day to day.
It's really just, like, such a roller coaster. She's all over the place. And, you know, within a day, I was, like, you know, singing a cappella in front of a group of, like, Katy Perry and a group of people. I was, like, crying and screaming and yelling all in one day. And it was just kind of, it was just, like, just a lot to... handle and manage.
Um, but I did create a spreadsheet for, for this kind of thing. And I, and I do tend to, I've done that once before on a, on a job. Um, and it's helpful for like, cause we were jumping around in time a lot on this show and like literally in a day I'd be in, you know, uh, 2015 bell and 2011 bell and 2012 bell all in one day, um, And so I felt like I really needed to.
And there was also like I don't know if you noticed my different teeth. Yeah. Yeah. I had different teeth. So like I was popping different fake teeth in and out. Did she.
So the spreadsheets, first of all, I did not create that Google Doc. My sister definitely helped me. Maddie, thank you so much. I am not for some reason out of my out of my like the three of us. I have two sisters and like I have no I have no skills there. I have no skills in organization. I want to be organized and I'm organized a little bit up here.
But in terms of like laying that down or working it on a computer, that's never going to happen.
I can. And that's about all I can manage. That's about all I can do. But no, she helped me. We got on FaceTime while I was in Australia. I was like, I got to reel it in here. This is a lot. And so I would take it. Like, episode by episode, and, like, each scene I would write, okay, this scene is set in 2011. Okay, this scene is set in 2015. She just had her miscarriage.
Okay, and then the scene before that. Like, I would make those sort of notes, and then I would also leave, like, an open space for what I actually ended up... Because I have a plan for what I'm going to do, but sometimes that plan...
um changes like you know if the director or writer wants to do something different or your your your fellow you know scene partner wants to do something different so then i would write down what changes were made just so that i could keep track of where i was and where i should go you know it was just a way of like making sure i was like in control of and in control of everything yeah
There was ringworm bell where I had to have like ringworm all over my face for a while. I mean, it was all, I think probably like, no, I mean all of it was relatively like all like challenging. It was like each year was kind of challenging for certain reasons and different reasons. I don't know. I think,
jumping back, just the nature of jumping back and forth was a tiny bit difficult, but I think it was more about like, I would take it scene by scene because sometimes I really think of her as like a chameleon and kind of an actor, honestly. And she would kind of transform herself around different people. And, and so that's what I really wanted to
make sure I was achieving was just, yeah, just how she, how she was really a shapeshifter in many ways around different people to, to really get what she wanted.
Really? Okay, well, I mean, it definitely changes. It changes a lot. Like, I really, and I think it's important for me to... Yeah, to keep it open and to be flexible because I also think that I tend to mold to whatever the certain director likes to do, whether it's like I work with a director that doesn't like to rehearse and then I work with another director who does like to rehearse.
Did I already say does or did I say doesn't?
