For a role I'm acting, I need to be able to flap my hands while speaking, but be able to do it fluently and without having to really think about it.
Also I need to develop stilted speech, so pausing in unusual places and being in a sentence and then changing it to something entirely different.
I take my acting very seriously and so want to be able to do both of these fluently, without having to think about doing them, as I want them to appear natural, so that if I wasn't acting, it would appear that I was like this all the time.
How can I achieve this? And any other quirks you can think of (that you can do quite naturally) for a shy/nervous personality?
Thank you.
