when people say "they improvised this part!" does that mean that the recorded scene is footage of an improvisation, or that the actors kinda improvised a few lines on the spot because they had better timing, then talked it with the director/writer/whoever and then rehearsed and filmed those changes to the script?
>>223618808It could mean either. Improvisation just means that something differs from the script. Or something was added which wasn't in the script.
>>223618808Most of the time it's either: the actor forgot their line so they made up a new one on the spot and everyone agreed they liked it more or the director told the actor beforehand that they could improvise in a certain scene if they wanted to
It can also sometimes describe 'happy accidents' that were recorded and which the director liked.
