    I think the reason why these actors act this realistic and great, is because they're not thinking I should do this and that to look more realistic, instead they are truly giving themselves to the moments, and say their lines with their whole being.
    Amazing acting and fantastic scenes, wow, I specifically loved "Benedict Cumberbatch"'s art.
    Thank you for all the hardworking, god bless you.

    Just finished watching the scenes.. Oh boy- there are some great ones.
    I don't think there is much left to say about the insanely talented Meryl Streep, pure emotion , just wonderful to watch.
    After that I really enjoyed the one of Viola Davis, I didn't know her until I watched the scene, but how she's trembling, having salvia all over her face and keeps going on without taking a breath does surely leave an expression behind.

    • @TheActorsAcademy
      @TheActorsAcademy  Před 3 lety +12

      Good start. You mentioned how Meryl’s part was “pure emotion,” but I would suggest going deeper into this. What made it seem so emotional for you? Was it the way she took her time, was it how she looked at the other actor, was it maybe the physical act of seeing her holding back tears attempting to stay strong, etc. what was it for you that made it so emotional, that without that one thing you may not have had the same answer of “pure emotion.” By going this far in detail we will understand more deeply, why we like a piece of work and what makes it work 👍🏼

      So you saw the look in both their eyes and facial expressions. I’d also suggest looking into their physicality and identifying how that added to the portrayals of their part. Other points to consider are the camera angles, lighting involved, script, their intention behind the lines, levels of emotions (Sylvester’s character state of being is different from the beginning than the end), etc. We want to look at everything 👍🏼

      This is a fine start, but I might suggest trying to look a little deeper. Why did it feel so emotional for you? Was it because Benedict took his time, was it the writing of the script, the fact it was based off a true story, the music involved, the intention behind each line, the look in his eyes, the listening the characters had, all of this or some of this? I would trying to get much more specific if you could, you’ll find far more value in working within this very precise way 👍🏼

    1. The last line of Daniel Day Lewis' performance really stood out to me. I could tell he meant it. "I'm the President of the United States...."
    2. What stood out to me about Eddie Redmayne's performance was his eye acting and averting his eyes, staring off into space when he's deep in thought and also losing control of one of his feet while he's dancing.
    3. Meryl Streep- I didn't feel like I was watching an actress. Had to remind myself it was Meryl lol
    4. Benedict- Wow! I'm speechless
    5. Viola- Speechless. Can't put her performance into words.
    6. Kate- I'm no accent expert, but I thought her accent was good...and she seemed grounded in her performance.
    7. Tobey- I zoned out...twice
    8. Tom- made me tear up. Also very grounded
    9. Sylvester- endearing scene but I don't know what to make of his acting
    10. Natalie- nice Jackie accent

    • @TheActorsAcademy
      @TheActorsAcademy  Před 3 lety +2

      This is a good start, but I would suggest going far deeper into most of these. So for Eddie’s performance you saw specific physical details that added to his character and how his eyes told you a story. Those were good details, now for Meryl you’d mentioned you felt like you weren’t watching an actress anymore, but why? Was it the ease at which she spoke, was it something within her eyes, her physicality, her rate of speech, holding back tears, a combination of these things? I’d really look closer into these points. For Tobey’s scene you mentioned that you personally zoned out (and that’s completely fine, because we know acting is subjective), but I’d suggest asking yourself the question why? Why did you not like the story, was it his delivery, did the text seem forced, was it the camera angles, lack of proper music, etc. what made it unenjoyable for you? So again, good start, but I’d suggest going into greater detail. This will benefit you far greater in the long run 👍🏼

    I recently watched The Truman Show, I've always been a fan of Jim Carrey in The Ace Ventura films and it was very different to see him playing in some aspects a more serious role compared to Ace Ventura where he's always flamboyant and "larger than life" and whilst The Truman Show does still have classic "Carr-acting" moments, the way he goes from the oblivious Truman Burbank unaware that he's the most famous reality star on the planet, his home of SeaHaven is an elaborately constructed set and his fellow friends and colleagues actors!
    Observing him slowly incident by incident transitioning from the kindly, friendly oblivious guy to someone who's putting life and limb on the line to uncover the truth is incredibly fascinating, seeing such a change in character made to look so natural and effortless, i imagine the role must have been a great challenge but he made it look easy!

    I could not watch Sir Tobey Maguire's scene, but according to me many other scenes were brilliantly performed.
    1) Sir Benedict Cumberbatch's scene was just phenomenal. The twitching of hands, the body language was believable to be of someone undergoing treatment. Emotions were brilliantly conveyed.
    2) Ma'am Meryl Streep's acting was also phenomenal. The way she was sitting, the frustration she had in her eyes of not being able to connect with her daughter much and now that she doesn't have time, all these emotions were conveyed perfectly.
    3) Sir Eddie Redmayne was also brilliant. He had the eyes of a learner when he was listening to the teacher. Of course the style of talking and body language added to the brilliance.
    4) sir Daniel Day-Lewis had the body language of someone who has burden of responsibilities and the high pitched voice added to the brilliance of Sir as a great actor.
    Rest all other were very good , but i could not understand, with due respect, how was the performance of Sir Tom Hanks, Ma'am Kate Winslet and Ma'am Natalie Portman great. I found the performances very good and they are undoubtedly great performances but i want to seriously understand why these 3 performances are said to be brilliant.🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
    All were brilliant. I just want to increase my perception of brilliant performance. Please help.

My acting teacher doesn’t talk to me as much because I’m very reserved and quiet, I’m extremely insecure but I’m working on my acting by observing others and practicing scripts ect. Honestly I don’t know if I’m a bad actor or my acting teacher doesn’t want me there.

    I absolutely loved the scene with Natalie Portman. I have never watched the movie, so I had no idea what the context of the scene was. Something about her voice being so calm yet certain really intrigued me. The way she sounded laid back but still had a piercing stare into the eyes of the man she was talking to. It was subtle, but sometimes the subtle says the most.
    I also liked Viola Davis’ approach, which was not holding back and letting it all out. That mindset definitely made the scene more believable. The way she let the man speak, and you could see her having all these feelings build up inside of her, and then, she let them out after staying silent for so long.

    What I liked the most was the focus he had (and also the other actors) in such a serious and important scene. And the great costumes and lighting made the viewers feel even more like in the 19th century area. Great job!

      These are great points to recognize and I would pay attention to these points in future scenes you observe (whether the ones in the description or else where). Focus is a good point which you mentioned. When an actor loses focus we (the audience) can tell relatively quickly. This can also be a helpful point to take note of when you begin doing self submissions and observing whether or not you are staying focused within the your scenes. Good work 👍🏼

    I love the Theory of Everything. The scene is extroadonary, what I like about the scene are the subtle expressions of Eddie Redmayne's character. I like how in the beginning, you could easily point out how Stephen was actually trying to find the actual meaning of the black hole, due to his face expressions. His eyes were staring right at the blackboard in an awe kind of way. His head kind of tilting in a way of curiousity. Stephen wanted to learn and figure out the meaning of the Black hole, yet I could easily (I don't know how, maybe you could help me figure this out?) find out that the other people in the class room, especially the student right next to Hawking was just learning to learn to pass a test. Hawking showed true interest in the hypothesis. The lighting I think really helped show Hawking's point of interest.
    It also I think lit certain parts of the room. The lighting gave the scene a very serious tone, kind of like how they did in Lincoln like I mentioned before. The acting, lighting, make-up really do go well in this scene. They went from serious (being in the class room, dark moody setting). To being in the wide open nature of the park of the university (daylight, bright blue sky, bright colors of the grass, the cheerful tone in the girls voice as she and Hawking talk about the Black hole in a fun way, which is also another indication that the scene is more free than the dark serious tone of the class room).

    I loved the Lincoln monologue. My reason is because the way Daniel Day-Lewis puts his voice, the lighting in the scene is very dim and dark which sets the tone of the seriousness of the scene in my opinion. The make-up also really makes us think that Daniel Day-Lewis is Lincoln, along with the brilliant acting in the voice and expressions. I could feel the desperation Lincoln was having, he was tired of the other men arguing over the topic and not actually doing something. Lincoln actually snapping them all out of the argument and putting his hand on the table really meant that he was dead serious. Lincoln wanted the Amendment passed insanely bad, and I could tell by the way his voice sounded. It sounded very desperate and serious, and frantic. Not frantic to get this over with, but a tone in his voice that said he wanted this so badly for the future generations like he said. The costumes really do help with the make-up in the scene and the entire movie. In this case, the make-up, set design, acting, hair-styling, lighting, costumes ALL stand out as factors. As all of the factors come together to create a scene of pure straight-forward purpose, it is a great scene.

    I love Benedict Cumberbatch scene because he played the character so perfectly like see all the hand movements along with the dialogues delivery and the expression on his face all at the same time that's make that scene to look great in my opinion and also in that scene alone he changed his expression so fluently from crying to smiling that also makes that a great scene
    Please let me know what's your opinion about this whether I am right or not 😄😄

      @TheActorsAcademy  Před 3 lety +1

      This is not a bad start. The detail which you noticed on his facial is good. I would also suggest doing the same when you are speaking on his physicality as well. When you mentioned “all the hand movements” I would suggest giving more detail on this. What about his hand movements (or rather what about his entire body)? Basically what you are seeing is how Benedict’s physicality lines up perfectly with both his character circumstances and emotional state within this moment. Can you see how more detail was put into that sentence, rather than just referring to the movements of his hands? Also, I’d suggest looking into other aspects of this piece that contributed to the success of this scene. What else do you think added to this scene, that if it was taken away, the scene may no longer work? For example, is it the music, script, lighting, camera angles, Benedict’s connection to the text, the way Ben took his time, the listening he displayed, the transition between his emotional states adding to the ‘levels’ within in the scene, etc. I would look further into some of these other aspects as well. You’ll find a lot of benefit within this way of being specific :) great start 👍🏼

    My way of viewing them:
    1) Lincoln "Now" scene: good (for the force that it has, decision)
    2) The theory of everything: good (stupefaction)
    3) Meryl Streep heartbreaking monologue: good (unicity, sincerity)
    4) Viola Davis acting scene: okay/good (emotional, intense)
    5) Steve Jobs movie clip: good (unicity, emotions)
    6) A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood: good (realism, humanity)
    7) Rocky Balboa: good (just amazing!)
    8) Jackie Movie clip: bad (too easy, strange pauses, strange talk.. i felt it unnatural)

    Ok so I only have the time to do 5 right now cause I actually need to record a monologue but I’ll come back and do the rest another time. So I think my favourite out of the first five is umm it’s actually not at the top of the list cause there all great but I’m just going to start with this one. So bennedicts cucumber ?? Idk I liked that scene cause it was so believable and real through all the switches. Cause like it’s sad it’s a very sad scene like you can see all the hope in his eyes when he looks at his machine it’s all he has and that provokes empathy. then he starts crying and the minute after that he’s laughing and that’s what I mean by switch he does a great job of making that believable and as it should be because he has a good friend who’s trying to cheer him up. Then that happens again he goes from sad to cheered up again to a kind of hopeful inspiring ending. Then there’s Meryl Streep scene and I like that one because of the relationship and listening to each other even when they were arguing and their voices overlapped it was real and believable and made sense and when Meryl cried that other actor was not only listening but feeling what her mother was feeling and she started crying to so the relationship there was really strong. Then violas scene I liked a lot because she was so unselfish and that’s something I aspire to, not being selfish while acting. I remember watching an interview of the Les Misérables movie and Anne hathaway said that it would have been selfish to sing the song the pretty way and I knew exactly what she meant by that cause that song she sang could have been done so vocally beautifully and technically but it wasent. which made it real and didnt give anne Hathaway this credit to her vocal ability. So seeing viola all snotty nosed and screaming in an ugly dark deep voice it’s so unattractive but so real and so selfless and I like that. Then there’s Eddies scene and I like the silence in it and the infatuation and fascination he has in whatever science thing that guy was talking about, and I like how you know what’s going on without him actually saying anything for the first few minutes. Then the Daniel day Lewis scene was interesting I was confused at first cause I didn’t know what was going on but I like how passionate he was. Doing what he wanted to do which was make a change but I feel like I’d have to watch the whole movie to understand that president scene a little more.

    • @TheActorsAcademy
      @TheActorsAcademy  Před 3 lety

      Very strong and very detailed perspectives 👍🏼👍🏼 now a question I might ask, is do all these actors share the same qualities? The beauty in the ugly, the passion in the text, the silence in their thoughts, the listening required? It’s a very important point to consider and can help us within our own works.
      If you wanted to go even further with this, you can also consider the assistance of music, the text itself, camera angles, lighting, editing, costuming, etc. these points also add in and can highten or diminish an actors work.
      Good job 👍🏼

    • @OjonugwaMansu

      The Actors Academy so I finished watching the other five well four (the toney McGuire video is not available btw or maybe it is and I can’t see it cause I’m from Canada) but anyways for the most part I feel like they do all share those same qualities depending on where they are and what their doing in their scene. Also something I see that’s always there is the relationship and the dependency on the other person their talking to. I feel like what the actors do, say, or think can change when their affected by the person their talking to? Like two people can go from screaming and arguing to listening intently to the other person to complete silence that’s just as loud as the screaming, or crying or talking e.t.c and another thing I noticed when you talked about lighting, filming and stuff. I tried to notice that a bit more cause I never really think of it like I know the camera switches and is on the different people and stuff but you never really pay attention to that but something I just realized. Like JUST REALIZED 😂👌🏾 is that the camera isent always on the person whose talking I rewatched some scenes and sometimes when a person is taking you hear their voice but you don’t see them. your seeing the person who their talking to. I’ve obviously watched and seen that but I never really payed attention to such a small detail like that and I think such a little thing like that is so important cause you see how their reacting. Anyways that’s all I have thx for the video I’m always looking for ways to practice and this was a helpful excericise I tried to pay attention which is not something I’m always good at. So thx🙏🏽

    With the Eddie Redmayne one i thought that the way he was looking like he was thinking all the time really stood out for me and was a major addition to his character. I liked the soundtrack and how it added to the scene, i thought Eddie moving his eyes in odd movements really made it look like he was thinking. As well as his awkward body movement showed that the character was not the most athletic person.

  • @mysteryx267

    I’ve always known about Meryl Streep but never watched anything that had her in it. Today was the first time I’ve seen her acting and it’s just wow. I think what made it so amazing for me was really a bunch of things. The timing of when she paused, when she speed up, how she was basically holding back tears, how she reacted when the other actor occasionally talked, and how with such a small frame she was moving around her head and upper body in a very natural way that matched her what she was saying. While how you said to look at it definitely taught me why I liked the scene it still didn’t really click on how I can implement this without it seeming forced. Do you have any advice for how to incorporate this into my acting? Are there specific way to tone my instincts to make my acting look as visually interest yet still natural as this? In what ways should I practice for this or is it just something that needs to already be a part of how you react and talk?

  • @lokid6125
    @lokid6125 Před 3 lety

    i really liked the tom hanks scene because he was the character. i didn't feel like i was watching tom hanks acting, i felt like i was watching his character - it felt like a very real scene which just so happened to be recorded. the way how he took on the role and became his character was just memorising for me. i'm finding it hard to explain this in a way that makes sense, but what i saw was not tom hanks, what i saw was his character, and i believe that's why the scene is so appealing. he became his character and portrayed him in the realest way i believe is possible. it's also the way how he uses his voice and facial expressions - when he begins talking about death, his voice (although very soft to begin with) seems to become softer since he is talking about a difficult subject, and he's aware of the other character in the scene who appears to be close to death. right before this (and then after when he repeats 'anything mention-able is manageable') he also looks towards the other man in the scene, signifying that he is also directing the speech to him. to me, by him directing that little 'speech' to other characters shows his awareness of other characters in the scene (even if it could be part of the direction in the script). he's aware of his fellow characters in scene. as i said, i am having some trouble trying to explain it, but the softness in his voice and facial expressions reflects on the character, along with his awareness of the scene.

      @TheActorsAcademy  Před 3 lety +1

      Good start, so you appreciated the honesty that Tom came into the scene with/how he acted in the space with complete ease. You saw a similarity between simply real life and this scene. It’s important to realize these points, especially when looking into your own work. You may also want to attempt going even further with your exploration. What were the aspects that made it feel like real life? Was it the unforced way at which Tom spoke his lines, was it his listening, was it the look in his eyes, etc. Then you could look at the external factors: the script, music, camera angles, lighting, editing, etc. There are so many things we can find when looking into a piece of work. Great start 👍🏼

So I recently graduated from high school and I'm 18 and me and my mom have been struggling financially for all my life but now we have a nice place and she has a great non-profit business shes made to help others in hard times (disaster relief) and atm she helps ppl through this pandemic with food delivery for free and I have just been helping around with that although im beginning to think this is the career I want to commit to, acting. I have no experience but a great talent to be very persistent with things I put my mind to. If there is any next/first step I should take where and what should it be???

    Hi, I don’t know if you’ll see this but it would mean so much if you can respond. There is an old animated show you’ve probably heard of called avatar the last air bender, and Netflix is making a live action remake of it. They announced about a year ago that they would be doing open call auditions online in late 2019, but then covid happened. I’ve been wanting to get into acting for forever, and since I’m such a huge fan of the show, I thought it would be a good idea to audition. I don’t have any professional experience, and I have no way of telling if I actually have talent or not, but I want to try. I made a resumé and took my own headshots. There is a specific character who I am quite similar to (in my opinion) that I want to audition for. I’m assuming that it would be a self-tape because they said the first round will be online. Do you know how I can stay updated for new information, how else I can prepare, if I have a chance at all, etc.? Thanks for all of your videos they’ve been so helpful!
