    It happened for me in class at Studio 24. I couldn't relate to the actual scene, but I personalized it with a real situation where I did have that worry and fear that allowed me to sort of let my guard down and act with real emotion. Studio 24 acting coach, Kevin, asked what it was I used to personalize it. Before I could answer, it hit me. I was able to get through the scene without losing it. Pretty surreal, actually. And therapeutic. Btw, Kevin intuitively called camera and action.

    I came from theater, I was directing (and will do again). To move out my comfort zone I applied to a short film casting. Nothing big, it will be directed by a movie director student, and she will bring it to festivals. I have been on sets before, as an extra many times.
    So she asked me to talk about myself, then we had an improvisation dialogue, and then she asked me to express different feelings, and sad was one of them :) I just did what I thought was good by common sense. Before that I never imagined I am going to go to a movie casting. And I got the part. We start next week. I am TERRIFIED. :D

    I have this thing that when I have to act sad, I just start to feel sad immediately, I think it is something inbetween the real acting and the ''acting''

    Amazing. Too bad sad is mostly all I can do. Now the question is how to be confident enough to radiate energy and allow yourself to act happy and aloof.
    Thank you for your videos. In less than five minutes I learn more and more, and you’ve helped me with some of my works.

    Good advice...but some people just have a natural talent at being able to cry, especially if they've had a hard past. But me, I haven't had a hard past, plus, it's waaay different when there's people watching and you're on camera. But keep it up! These videos are fantastic!

    • @dracarysMB
      @dracarysMB Před rokem +4

      100% agree. I mean my life, especially the events of my earliest childhood, has been a living hell for the most part, so I can cry within a few seconds without any problems in front of the camera, in the middle of the street, in front of a group of completely unknown people, wherever and whenever, it's enough just to remember. So, I guess my life trauma helped me a lot to realize myself as an actor. Life is sometimes sarcastic in various ways, and in a good ones too 🤓

    Thanks! I have a play later today; encanto, and i’m mirabel and there’s 3 quick scenes and in the 3rd scene i have to be sad but the scene before that i’m in is an action scene. It goes from the ending of “what else can i do” with like 3 lines, then the house breaking then the scene to dos orguitas and i pretty much have to be sad in the time of a blackout
    Not sure if this changes anything but im 11 and i have a lot of family members coming to watch 😅

    Will this method ever wear off? For example, if I think the same sad thoughts over and over again, won't my mind get used to them thoughts and I’ll no longer get sad about them? I guess this is a personal question but I wanted to know if you ever faced this barrier. Thanks

    • @Studio24inc
      @Studio24inc  Před rokem +4

      Hi Jim, You won't be using the same sad thought with the same person every time. You will adjust the person and the hypothetical to match as close as possible to the given circumstances of the character.
