Affective memory was an element of Stanislavski's techniques and a part of Method Acting. Affective memory requires actors to recall on the memory of details from a similar situation they themselves were in to those of their characters. Stanislavski believed actors needed to take emotion and personality on the stage and use it when playing their character. He also explored the use of objectives like actioning, and empathizing with the character. Emotional recall is the basis for Lee Strasberg's Method acting. Sense memory is used to refer to the recall of sensations to do with emotional events. It is otherwise known as emotional memory, it is often used by making the actors completely relaxed so that they can remember the memory better.
