Editing Subtext (section)

==Formats for creating subtext==
{{unreferenced section|date=September 2024}}
Below are the main types of subtext that are used in film:
*Have a character comment on an aspect of another person's relationship which is present in the relationship of the people in the current conversation.
*Body language communicates subtext. Body language is often used to convey whether a character is welcoming or threatening.
*Implied accusations, often communicated through leading questions, are a form of subtext. For example, when a lawyer asks you "what were you doing on the night of the 23rd", that is an implied accusation.
*Facial expressions and voice tone express many things including discontent and suspicion. For example, a quiet one-word answer to a question implies that the speaker is lying and that they do not want to say the true answer.
*The subtext of how much people care for each other can be communicated by showing the amount of care, interest, and attentiveness people have for each other's opinions, desires, and character traits.
