Line 51:
*Spotlighting certain elements of the scene (e.g. though pointing or drawing circles around things)
*Special effects (e.g. concealing / revealing certain elements of the scene)
*Indicating multiples or repetition (e.g. gesturing that a pyramid or group of pyramids is understood to be in many places within the playspace without needing to physically set them all out, or gesturing that a particular action demonstrated between two actors is being performed by many others as well without having to animate each instance of the action)
For example, if a stack of pyramids has been established to be a person in a scene, having that "person" hold a small yellow a pyramid and move as though writing with a pencil is acceptable, but the active player could not hold the yellow pyramid as a pencil and gesture as though writing herself, because her hands in that case would be "on stage." Likewise, animating a white pyramid as though it is rising from a group of red-and-yellow pyramids is acceptable for indicating "smoke," but the active player could not simply mime the shape and motion of smoke with her empty hands.
