Actors need to Listen! Being Present in the Scene.

Описание: "Listening. We all know the phrase acting is reacting. But how do you react? By listening. I AM LISTENING. We really need to put our attention onto the other person. This is why Meisner Technique is such a beautiful conduit to leaving yourself alone. Stop being aware / paranoid / what ever about your own appearance, ability, voice, body…that is what rehearsal or your own private work is for.

When it comes down to being present with your scene partner, you are playing your action. BUT you can’t just play your action so well that you knock your partner off the stage…or screen. Any decent person would ask “are you ok?” if someone they were speaking to fell over…HECK even laugh if you’re close friends. You don’t ignore it.

The same goes for being present. You are breathing, looking and seeing, hearing and listening. Maybe you smell their perfume or cologne. Calm your inner self and BE with your partner."

If you want information about the Meisner Acting Technique, I will cover it in more detail in a future post. BUT do research it if, like me, you easily get stuck in your own head!

It is my aim to provide videos to help you get into drama school or help you unearth new discoveries at the start of your acting career.

I make no claim that I hold all the answers – I only want to help and I shall do nothing short of my best to do so. I hope you have fun watching and gain something new.
