When there's acting I like contemplating the whole behind-the-scenes scenario involving the director approaching the actresses to get their willing agreement to perform the lift, their internal reaction to the presentation of the idea, potentially test-lifting to make sure they're physically capable of the lift, discussions of what the lift should convey onscreen, the actresses' input back to the director, rehearsals of the lift, the actresses giving thought to how they perform the lift, how they privately react to the experience of the lift, how many actual lifts were performed to be edited together into the scene and other things.
I know this thread is about body position but sometimes the mind is more important than the body.
