Give reasons for your answer
Little Scarlet
Emotion
If I was Little Scarlet I would be very sad because my mum is telling me to get out of the house and go to my grandmothers when I don't want to. Also I would probably feel depressed as it sounds like
she doesn't want me.
Motivation
As an actor I would show my characters motivation by crying and screaming. In my actions I will try to show that I want to stay at home with her and I don't want to go outside at 9 o'clock at night.
Voice
My voice will probably sound frightened but also really annoyed as I have to do something that I don't want to do.
Movement
At the beginning of it I would probably make it look like I'm sitting down on the floor as I'm playing on my phone as it set in the present. But to the end when my mum starts shouting at me I would be crying. I would have my hands over my face.

T Describe how a line could be spoken, giving clear reasons
To achieve this you need to refer to a specific line a character speaks or could speak by quoting and use key words (pitch, pace, pause, tone, volume, accent) to describe your use of voice. You then need to explain exactly why the character should speak in this way.
