To truly become the Joker, Heath Ledger chose to isolate himself from the rest of the world for months at a time, locking himself in his apartment or hotel room to iron out the finer details of the character. During his exile, he'd work on his diary free of distraction, documenting his thought process, important quirks to the character, and other notes that describe how he came up with so many now-iconic parts of Joker's characterization.
In a German documentary about the late actor, titled Too Young to Die: Heath Ledger, his father, Kim Ledger, was interviewed on the unorthodox nature of his son's preparation. While the elder Ledger admitted that the isolation and prolonged study was nothing new for his son, he described the Joker journal as being on "a whole new level." Even as bizarre as its content seemed on its own, the two strategies Ledger utilized in tandem with were undeniably crucial to perfecting his performance.
