Charlie Sheen has been all over the press recently with some of the most ridiculous statements I've ever heard. Each interview Sheen finds a new way to appall me whether it be a memorable quote, or a head turning pair of baby sitters. The incredible thing about all these quotes is that Sheen was apparently drug free during the interviews. He must be one eccentric guy to come up with this stuff completely sober. So in order to prod some thoughts about these interesting statements by Sheen, I'm going to break down one of his interviews using the Vulcan, Sound, Sight and Motion technique created by Doc Chris.
Sight: The video starts with a man and woman behind a large desk talking. The video then cuts and opens up inside a room that seems to belong in someone's house (presumably Charlie Sheen's). The background is all out of focus and the only thing in focus is Charlie Sheen and some Woman talking to him. The camera often cuts back between the woman and Charlie depending on who is talking. A noticeable sight is a cigarette in Charlie Sheen's hand, making it look like he doesn't care about the interview one bit.
Sound: The first audio mentions Charlie Sheen and a recent night he had with excessive drugs and porn stars. The two people talking speak very clearly and casually, one male, one female. The casual male voice then goes away and then Charlie Sheen's voice comes in and he begins talking to the woman. Charlie Sheens voice is casual for the most part but he will occasionally raise his voice and increase his speaking speed when he gets excited about questions. He doesn't seem to take any comments by the woman seriously and when asked if he is bipolar, he asks what the word means (which seems odd considering he has a high school diploma at least). He claims that he is "biwinner" because he wins here, and he wins there. This makes it sound like he's making a joke of the interview. He claims that he is some sort of special person and doesn't want to be made like "them". He claims he is on top and he never crashes meaning he can't be bipolar (I think he's delusional). The woman asked him when the last time he "used" was, which she is clearly implying drug use by saying, Charlie gave her a smart ass response and said he uses lots of things, like vacuums and blenders etc. He begins to brag about how many drugs he took the last time he did use drugs and claimed that it was an inhuman amount but he could handle it because he's Charlie Sheen, he's different, he's got tiger blood. He is beginning to make a complete fool of himself with these sayings.
Motion: There's a lot of body language and motion in the video. Sheen doesn't stop moving for a second throughout the entire video. It seems as though Sheen was uneasy or something. His smoking through part of the interview showed a lack of care, and his eyes avoided eye contact several times as he rolled his eyes and head to what the woman had to say. He looked down at the ground several times and made eccentric hand/arm motions. I don't think that he is sane.
