Units and Objectives, the Superobjective and Throughline are some of the most important elements of Stanislavki’s System. As a director how would you apply them to a role to shape and improve an actor’s performance. Stanislavski recommended that the actor break each scene into separate sections or units which make the plot easier to understand and manage, and then give each unit an aim, or objective. An actors objective for a unit should detail exactly what they want to achieve as a character for each unit. Each objective has to be active, and therefore is expressed with an active verb "I want".
