Michelle Tate: Background work to develop character

To prepare for the part of Mercy Lewis, actor Michelle Tate says that she does background work such as writing down her character’s objectives and doing a series of activities to unleash her imagination. She wrote a biography by answering 100 questions about her character, which she found helpful in getting into the role.
