Shawn Nelson Acting - Your Wide Open Window to the World of Film and Television Acting
Stagione 1
di Shawn Clement Nelson
In this episode we will begin to look at HOW we APPROACH MATERIAL. We will see that this is a PHILOSOPHICAL process, We are just getting started,,,
In this episode, I'll take your through a serious series of exercises that will actually change how you look at acting.
What SPONTANEITY is...and what it is not...and other big secrets!
We have very specific artistic goals that are placed before us when we audition and perform, goals that if attained will engage an audience in a profound way.
The only thing that is castable is YOU. The question is: who are YOU?!
Of course, the acting has to be 'good'. BUT - Producers and Directors don't cast 'acting'. They cast ACTORS!
So, how do we think about the 'script'? How do we think about how to 'act'? There are absolute laws of Dramatic Theory. Let's start to discuss them!
In this post, we conclude discussing our new vision of "where we are" when we audition or interview, and why it makes a big difference in how we approach the relationship with casting and production.
Okay, now we're going to get into what might seem, at first, like a hall of mirrors. But it is actually a tunnel, with a lot of light at the end of it. It will feel like your brain is being readjusted, but you'll see that it's actually what is the reality. Enjoy!
We are going to take a DEEP LOOK at the true psychology of the audition experience.
