1. Introduction: Hello everyone. My name is Mahmud saw
from the certain. And I am here to share with
you how to be a good actor. It could be, how could
you be a good actor? It could be hard to enhance
your acting skills, or it could just be how
to be a perfect actor. Now, I have been acting doing
drama like since preschool. That means I've been
doing it forever. And then I did it in
high school years. I have been acting, but I'm not in
television. But he is. I do have an idea of how it's like on
television because I have been to
production companies before he is in South
Africa, a couple of them. So this course is
intended for all of you who are
interested in acting, is indeed if you want to speed up your performance
a little bit, this is the place for you. So yes, I hope you
enjoy it and I hope it it comes
in handy for you.
2. Personality Traits: Before we go into acting, I'm going to advise you on a couple of personality
traits that you need to bring up a little
bit in order to die. Now, indulging into the
whole actin process. Now, first of all, you need to learn
how to be confident. When you're confident,
doesn't really mean that you're arrogant
or prior of all proud. No. It means feeling
good about yourself. You walk with your
head up, you know. And I'm just BU, be yourself, have no
doubts about yourself. And be the very person who
feels good about yourself. So I'm just act like you
have nothing to lose. Smile, even walk
with your head up. And if you don't
have self-esteem, this is where you put it
in half that self-esteem and having that whole
mentality of saying, I know I can do this, I know I can do this. Have faith in yourself. Then you will realize
that with time, you will start building up
that confidence in you. And trust me, when
you are confident, it will make people see you on a different angle and people will respect
you even bright. So I'll make an example
with confidence. Now, I'm going to talk about movies were making
examples so that it lists you refer to
something that you can go to and have a look at. If you see the movie, Honey, to I know it was
a horrible movie. Okay. No offense. It was a horror movies. The dancing, the
choreography was awesome. But the directory was just off. The acting was off, including the storyline itself. It was off. And like if you look, if you looked at the movie, you could just tell that
everything about it was obvious. If you were to watch the movie, you would just posit in
the middle and be like, You know what, I'm
done with this. But you need to learn that. Once you have started
learning how to act, you have to start.
3. Analyzing Content: Okay, guys, once
you start acting, you're going to have to take a look at everything
that involves acting. If you're going to
start washing movies, you're going to have to
start analyzing them. Not for your viewing pleasure. You have to analyze them and see whether the action was good or not because you
want to be an actor. Right now. I know honey is the actin
wasn't that, right? But there are a few things
that you can look at. For instance, with the
same topic of confidence. There's a scenario where
Maria went to a nightclub. Given a curfew? She went to a nightclub. Just to have fun? Yes. And if you look at it, the entrance that she
made at a nightclub, years, no one was
looking at her. Who cares? Well, she
was noticed thereafter, but my attention was on the
entrance that she pulled off. She walked with confidence, was enjoying the music. She was loving the people
dancing around her. Because she's a dancer. She loved to dance. So she started
smiling, you know, walking up, picking up
the pace a little bit, and then she gradually
started to dance. That's what I mean
by confidence. That way, Maria just wrapped
up in a trap like that. Is the attitude that you
need to start to develop. The confident she had, the self-esteem she
believed in herself. Don't wait for someone to start telling you to
believe in yourself. Or in fact, don't wait for
someone to believe in, you know, yourself
to be living, right? So try to pull off
that entrance, that that movement, I teach it. And then with time, it will start to develop, to develop in you. And then another example
that I'm going to use is in the movie
despicable Me too. I know it's cartoons, right? If you don't like cartoons, our average, you're going
to have to watch them. Because if you like, acting, cartoons are fun. So in despicable Me groom
had started to like Lucy. Yes. So he started
working with Lucy. And one morning he
went to work and he walked with confidence
because he was excited for mingling with Lucy. He just had a great mood. So he walked to work and
each time he walked, you would like to
interact with people, dance along the way? I remember there
was a part where he there was a scene
when he walked past. These are a yoga class. And he just stands there and people responded,
the yoga students. And to him it was fun. That also is essential. Because you're, you're showing confidence that
interacting with people, that means you have nothing to lose because you're doing
it in a positive manner. Now remember, guys, you are building a character
here of an actor. Even if you are not an actor, but it's a positive
character that you really should have. So the way he behaved than it was just with excitement
and trust me with time, you will go with the flow and don't push yourself
into doing it. Just do it because
you think it's fun. And then as time goes on, the easier it will become. If you are a reserved person, if you are quiet. Then start off with baby steps, you know, bit by bit. And you will get the, trust me, don't think too much
about what you do. Don't think too much
about yourself. And don't ever imagined that you might get negative
remarks from people. Because what you're
trying to get is a positive response from people, which will build
up the character. I knew the positive
character in you, right? And then when people paid
along with cruise five, it means he was getting to
positive response from people, from the energy around him, which is exactly what you
should achieve as an actor. Now, the second that I'm going to talk about
is interactivity. If you want to be an actor, keep in mind that
you're going to have to act different scenarios. And you're not going
to be yourself. Again, you will be
acting with people, different kinds
of personalities. Like nope, because it's the
other actors, personalities. But because it will
be the personalities according to the
character bibles that has been designed
by the scriptwriters. And I'm the director
also will be contributing to
those personalities. Interacting with people who
will make it easier for you to stop developing
different characters. You're not actually
changing who you are know, but you are trying to make it easier for you to start acting
in different characters. Now, this time, you'll be doing it for the sake of acting. Viewership can now
with interacting, I mean, make friends
as much as you can. And do not be picky
when making friends. Just go along and make friends. And look at all kinds
of personalities. Because with acting,
there are no limits. You have to pull off all
kinds of personalities. The good, the bad, the horrible, the genuine, the
humble, everything. You just have to put
everything altogether. Now, you still have
to be careful though, when mingling with people. Because when you mingle with people with negative attitudes, you don't have to take
it too personally. Whatever it is that you
encounter with these people, you just have to
mingle with them just for you to learn from them, from their personality traits, from their behaviors and
characters in general. So whatever it is, maybe they might be offensive. They might be harsh. At some stage, maybe
divide surprise. You learn to balance with that. Because you're not
actually doing this. Because maybe you need help
or something like that, or you really need them. No, you just want to learn
different characters. You might have to pull off
those characters when acting. And you just need to
understand that you're acting. It's not necessarily who you
are and don't be picking. I know there are boring
people out there who might just barred the daylights
out of you and you, you just don't want to
hang out with them. But after this lesson, you are going to have to
try to put up with them. Be patient with them. Because you never know. You might be given
that character. And with these different
personalities. If you try to develop them
and you try to exercise them, put some practice in them. It'll be easier
for the, for the, for the for the, for the production houses to call you and be like,
Okay, you know what? We've realized that you
are able to pull off different personalities and hear exactly what we're looking for. Now, you're making it easier for you to be called for additions. Sometimes not even
for an audition. They just like what you do. You know, they just like
what you're capable of. And then all they want to do is just put you in and
be like, You know what? You're exactly what we want. That means they
won't have to hunt. Hectic, hectic leave for one specific character
that they're looking for. Alright? So when interacting, as
you do make friends, learn to listen, alright? Learn to listen to
different people's stories. Listen to what they
have to tell you. If maybe someone feels
like talking to or maybe there'll be talking
in passengers like that. Yes. Learn to listen to
their different stories because there'll be a
lot to learn. In return. Take note of the way they
respond to their experiences. Whether it's positive,
whether it's negative. Because you're busy keeping
all these things in mind. And you don't
necessarily have to remember every single thing. But the fact that you'll be
having a positive attitude, it'll make it easier for you to start going with the flow. You'll just roll. It will be a lot easier
out there, right? You don't even need
to take notes down. It's not necessarily trust me. So I'm absorb that different
personality traits and learn as much as you can to digest every single
thing that they tell you. If you do absorb, then it will give you
more understanding. And do not, judge. No, don't be judgmental. She's learned to understand
instead of judging, right? Because if you judge, it means you're starting to
create a negative energy. Once you start being negative, then trust me, you'll be judging yourself to when you're giving
a particular role. You end up being like, do I really have
to take that road? Were really have
to act like this. You will start being negative. And guys, remember
to keep it in mind that you are acting, right. You'll be acting, not
doing this in real life. You will be acting now, developing these personality
traits or enhancing them. Let me say, it will
help you to make it easy to start acting them. Alright? So, um, sometimes you might
want to just go to an event, maybe just go out there. It can be one of those pumps where you get people who
perform stuff like that. If it's an event, that's
where people get to interact. Now when you go to an event, you know for a fact
that you're going to acquire a few people, sit at a table, join people, or let them join
you, chat, you know, because they'll always
be a lot to talk about. Chat, have discussions with
them, talk about anything. You don't necessarily have
to start a hectic topic. You can discuss about
what's happening.
4. People's Opinions Matter: Now from discussing
about what is happening, clearly, you will start
learning people's opinions. You will start to paying
attention to their reactions. If maybe there's a
performance happening, say maybe there's a jazz
band or someone singing, you know, going solo. You're going to learn
their personalities. Let me say their reactions
towards the performances. Maybe they will scream at
them like whoo, he is. You pay attention
to that too now and use that at someone
that's busy seeing. Some of them are going to, they're going to cheer up. Some of them might
find them boring. And they will react towards that if they want to boo them. Yes, they'll go boo. And you know, people are going
to act in different ways. Pay attention to that,
start absorbing. And don t know. I don't interrogate. Just be at your own spot. You can just laugh along. Maybe if you need to
buy, just stay positive. Lend to have control
over your behavior. Because you just want to
interact with people. You just want to look at
how they behave so that when you are now acting, given a role, you already have different ideas of how you can
respond to certain things. So sometimes you wouldn't need, you won't even need a director to tell you exactly what to do. You might just
pull something off and you just did it perfectly. You don't even need to change or make a few adjustments
to it, right? Because you'll be
having a lot of experience from just
interacting with people in, from just learning all of these that I'm
telling you right now, that I'm sharing
with you right now. Alright? And then the third. Now, if you're an introvert, you're going to
have to get out of that shell because
we don't need it. You're going to have
to start being bubbly. Bubbly, like you just
have to go out there. And, you know, yes, interact. Continue to interact, but you're going to
have to be badly. Chat. Like it. Maybe get to Bob, lead to a point
that people do get annoyed and start
running away from you. But somehow you can pull
it off because you want to see how different people respond to your
bubbly a t-shirt. And if maybe they
do get annoyed, just look at how
they react to it. Because you are learning
different personalities, right? You are learning different
ways to pull off a scenario. So if you're bubbly, let people respond to the way you behave
when you're bubbling. Because you want to
see the reactions. You want to see how they act. Because trust me,
when you are acting, you are doing
something that's like, let's say you're watching a
movie and you know, it's, it's something that you think it's a daily activity
that you can do easily. But trust me, when you are
then you are given a scenario. It's not easy because you're
given a scenario of like, you're given a role that
is completely not true. So if you think you'll just do act according to how
you are being directed, then stuck going to be using. If you haven't
really acted before, it's not going to
be easy, not this. I'm telling those of you who
have never tried acting. However, if you try to take
a look at the way people, the way people act, and you try to put
yourself in their shoes. Whether it's easy or not, to put it into practice
and start acting. Alright? And with time, you will realize that it's just a walk
in a park, you know. So. When you, when you look at
the way people respond, just imagine you will be
given the same scenario. If you have put that
into practice, trust me, it'll be so much easier when
you start doing that role. Onset. Now. Lend to start conversations. Even if it's not important, even if it's just about nothing, you know, you can see a
mouse walking past you. We can just start chatting
about a mass like, Oh my gosh, a mouse
freaks me out or high. So Q, to look at the tape
and just laugh about it. You can tell about anything. In fact, you can actually create a conversation out of anything. And whether it's
important or not, just chat, talk about it. Because when you're bubbling, you, you start being flexible. You know, you start making it easier for you to
do a lot of things. Because when you're not bubbly, ah, even though confidence, you might happen to lag. And when you, when
you did badly, it means it can sometimes
mean that you're shy. And if you are shy, trust me, there's no way you're
going to make it. You just have to work
on your character. If you know that
you're a shy person or you're an introvert, you need to start looking at these pointers that
I have given you. And trust me, you
will realize that I'm slowly and surely, you know, your mindset. We'll start to change. Now when you're babbling, doesn't necessarily
mean you need to talk about personal things. Personal matters, Not really. You can just talk about
yourself in general. Be a little superficial
in your talking because you don't necessarily
need to go a little too deep about you. You can just chat about. I went to a music concert
and it was awesome. I like the way the
violinist pulled it off. You know. Then from just
watching the concert, I felt I wanted to get
myself a violin and starts playing along
with those strings. Or maybe, maybe say you
saw someone play guitar. I know what it was
so beautiful and I want a status trump
boost guitar strings. And I know I'm going
to pull it off. Stuff like that. You can talk about
having a walk in a park and then he came
across a stranger. And stranger was
an awesome person. You can just talk. Sometimes you can just give people advice this and
be like, you know, you can rather do this in stayed and abstain
from doing bad. You don't necessarily need
to think too much about it. I know for beginners, in poking, in being bubbling, it
won't be easy because you feel it's not going to be easy to
come up with a topic. But if you do think of
a topic or maybe you just if you if you do think
of a topic, Yes, that's fine. But you don't have to
think about a topic, otherwise, you will end
up running out of topics. If you think about
studying what topic, thinking of why like what
topic am I going to start? No. Don't think about a topic. Just use what's already in
your mind or the surroundings. You see nice curtains out there. You're like, Oh wow, curtains. Oh, they look nice. I like this color or
you know, this color. It can mean this
and this and that. And then, you know, you end
up talking about cartons, uh, you know, from cartons, two cars, not realizing it. That's why I'm saying,
don't stress about what topic you're going to start with because that is exactly, we're going to lose it. Alright? So, um, it's good also to share your thoughts
and your ideas with people. Even if it's with strangers. Sharing thoughts. Can make it easier also
teaches end up having a chat. And in return, the person next to you that you're sharing thoughts with or subtle. So sharing their thoughts. And remember, lend to listen. Yes, you may be bubbly, but don't try to prevent
other people from talking. Also. Because if you come across
a person who is also badly, trust me, you want to give
them a chance to talk. Because being a good listener
also can be very important. Not that it can be important. It is important
because sometimes listening can give people a
certain perception about you. In some fields. Like I think philosophy, one of those things. Or is it psychology? Is philosophy,
psychology one of those? They say, if you listen
more to a person, especially if a person
dies, know how to talk. It gives them an
impression that you have large capacity to love. People. Do assume that listeners have that a good place in their
hearts to love people. Like a capacity to love admins. They do love people
and they, they care. In other words, don't just talk and stop and block
either people from talking. Because if you block
people from talking, then it's a recipe for
chasing them away. They'll run from
you and they would never want to hang
out with you again. And once you start doing that, then it's another form
of a negative energy. Because it goes with Oregon's. You don't want to
be arrogant at all. Because when you are again, you won't be aware of the negative energy
that surrounds you. But if you tried to be
humble when you're bubbly, if you do act humble, you know, people will respect you for that and they were
like You actually, if you spend more time
chatting with them, they will enjoy
hanging out with you. And if they realize
that you listen, then you, though, it is, the more you'll be drawing
them closer to you, even more. So they will enjoy your company. And that's exactly what
you're looking for. If you are an actor, draw as many people as you can, because that is how you
start to learn from them. Now, imagine you're giving
a scenario in acting. We have to be the
best person ever. If you look at how badly
you have been with people, then you won't have
anything to lose. And always so easy
for you to be badly. You won't even have
to think about it. Because imagine if you're given a scenario and it's something that you've
never done before. You might even get nervous. Especially if you
haven't really done it, even in real life, it might get you nervous. But if it's something that you do regularly or practically, then it'll be so much easier for you and you
will pull it off. You'll just go with the flow. Sometimes you might even
go beyond the script. And if you've been asked to go further than what the script
has been written for you. It will be easier to just add on some few
words to the script. And you'll just go, you know, we'll just go off with it. So years, those three
Personality Traits, trust me, they will boost your abilities
to now start acting. So please try them and try to see if they really
work for you right now. If they don't feel they
don't work for you, just try working on them
to try to work with them, but at a different angle. You don't have to do exactly
what I'm asking you to do. But you can just
look and analyze it. A few things that
I just told you.
5. Focus On What You're good at: Now, guys, try to focus more
on what you're good at. Stuck with the things that
you are really good at. And then with time,
try looking at your, your weaknesses and start
now to work around them. Now with these things
that I've mentioned, if you know that you're
good at some of them, start with them first. And the practical.
And then once you've, once you are
confident with them, now on working on the things
that you knew that you can't do when looking at the things
that I've mentioned now, the points that I've mentioned, try looking at things
that you can't do that you don't know
how to pull off, okay? And start learning now because you don't want to
have limits with Acting. Director tells you I
want you to do this. There's no way
you're going to tell them. I can't do that. No, you have to do it. You should not start
enjoying what you do. Alright? Now, once you are done with those three
pointers that I've given you, start now to implement these activities that I'm
going to share with you now, one at a time. Guys, don't try to do
all of them at once. Otherwise, you will start being crossing a
little confusion. And at 1, you will start not
to enjoy what you're doing. Try with one activity at a time. Put some practice on it and be as practical
as you possibly can, and use them on a daily basis. Okay, guys. Now, I'm the first one is that you want to be dramatic because there's no
way you're going to want to be an actor
and not be dramatic. Actors are dramatic. Alright? So near dramatic, you just have to go
all in all the way, you know with with your drama. And well, I don't mean that
you should go out of your way to annoy people know, just add a little drama
to your attitude. And it'll just to
enhance it a little bit. Okay? With pink dramatic. You shouldn't be afraid to
create a scene of yourself. Even if you're out there and
say You're in the streets. And you just want to pull
something off, you know. So you just want to add, you just want to
dance in the streets. Just, you know, it
can be anything. Just so people can stare at you because
you want the attention. In order for a movie to be, to be watched, it has to
grab the viewer's attention. So if you're not able
to grab attention, then it means you're
acting is poor. If you're not dramatic. It means you're not
an actor enough. You should learn to act up. Sometimes people snap. And the act app. You should learn to do that. Sometimes you, you know, you can do it in a form of a joke because you're
not you're not fighting in and tried to do this with people
around him when acting up with people around you and in a fun way
so that you get, you get them to respond. Because remember,
we're trying to, we're trying to get people
to respond to that. We learn different response
responses from people. Alright? So where do you act up? Then? It means people
are going to look at you like something's
going on with you. Or some maybe like
you've lost your mind. Or sometimes you can just act up to us to create a joke and
then people just laugh. It might be somewhat risky
if you do it with strangers. Because they might
be authentic to just the way you, you, you act. Not necessarily to the context, alright? Or the event. So, yeah, it's much safer
to pull off the activity, doing it around
people that you know. Sometimes you might need to
show a little aggression. Say maybe someone's
spilled you with juice. Obviously that person is guilty. They might feel bad. You might want to act up
like, why did you do that? Do you know how
expensive my dress is? Ours looked at you.
What is your problem? Because you want
to implement the, that whole idea of
being dramatic. And then maybe after acting
up towards that person, you might as well be like, relax us, just joking. You can chill. It's fine. I get it cleaned
up because you are trying to build up the personality here that you're going
to use as an actor. You might just be,
given that Rome. And this time, it could
be on a different level. But once it's something
that you've done before, then what have you to lose? It'll be so much easier. You will know
exactly what to do. Now. Along the line, you need
to show a little emotion. When you're dramatic. Because you, you're going to come
across different emotions. You're going to be given
different emotions. So you need to show
a little emotion, you know, be an
emotional person. At some stage. Is do show some emotion, maybe in response to what is happening to the
incident around you. And when you're emotional. And I'll give people a certain
perspective about you. If something is really bad. Do show that, you know,
you're getting it. It is bad. Do react to it. Because you're trying
to be dramatic here. If something is sad, even if it means crying, you can shed a tear a little. Just so you develop the motion. The more you put your
emotion into practice, the easier it will be for you
to actually act the part. And I know crying is difficult for a lot of
people have heard this, like in some productions. If you really can't cry, especially for men,
the Kikee really hard. Really hard. Yeah. Just for you to
have that emotion like because they want the
expression on your face. If you are emotional and you
can show it than handles, know why'd you have to
have an expression? And if they don't kick you hard, then it means you are going to cry because they're
going to hurt you. I feel I feel bad. I feel so sorry for the guys. Like really. Gentlemen. I know for most of you, it's not easy to show emotions. Like you hide them because
you are very secretive. You don't your unlike women, because women will
literally cry and be like, oh my card, this is bad. But with you, it's not good. It's not easy because you
are bit more secretive, so you need to start
to let it all out. You know, you need to
start to open out. So you're going to have
to learn how to cry. And it's not just crying. If you need to laugh, just burst out and laugh. Because your, you need to
forget about being yourself. You need to start
thinking like an actor. Just burst out laughing, even if it means falling
on the ground and giggling and crawling and doing all that
stuff and rolling. Just do it. Because you're an actor now, you're being dramatic and learn to enjoy all of these
things that you're doing. Because if you have a
passion for something, you have to enjoy it. If you have a
passion for acting, you have to enjoy
every bit of it. So if you come across
the awkwardness, you will have to learn
to express that. On even if you don't, if you do it silently, if you don't say it out loud, that something is awkward or
if you don't comment on it, shut that expression by
the look on your face. Gosh, what is this in? And it comes in different
ways depending on what is happening
in the scene is. So if you look at,
I'm going to make, I'm going to
mentioned this movie. If you haven't watched it. I think you should
watch it because it actually shows a little
drama in terms of emotion. If you watched the movie, the darkest mind, the darkest mind or the
dicussed minds and think years. With the main character
as a Mandler. Spielberg. He looked at her,
her name is Ruby in the movie, is so emotional. She reacts to almost everything, whether good or bad. She becomes emotionally drained. You know, she absorbs it so deeply that she's
going to start to cry. When she's excited in the movie. You know, she will smile and yet have tears
filled in her face. In her eyes. You see the heaviness
in her, right? So the same applies to
winches deeply hurt. You'll never see a
smile on her face, but you will see the heaviness
written all over her face. And you, that's when you will notice that
she's deeply hurt. And she goes to an extent
of shedding tears. She cries and she cries heavily, even if she doesn't scream
out loud when crying. But you will see the expression
on her face talking to. That's what I mean
by being emotional. Right? When you're crying, like make it so intense that
people feel that too.
6. Emotions: Have you noticed that, like have you ever watched a
movie that is emotional and then you start to cry because you're relating
to the movie like, Oh my gosh, whatever was
in that person's shoes, or maybe you're shooting, you actually feel like
you're a part of that movie. That's exactly what
should happen. Because you're giving your view was an impression about you. So they need to relate
with what is happening. And another thing is that like
when you laugh in a movie, even if it's not that funny. But because you'd be
laughing and having fun and denote bursting
out and all that stuff. The viewers, even
if they don't love, but they will smile or maybe
just enjoyed this scenario. Alright, not that is
my point exactly. So, um, another point. You have to, you
may not be a joke, a joker, but you're going to have to learn how
to mimic people. Mimicking people means simply doing exactly what
they get into, exactly what they do. Act in the way that they act. You can do it exactly
how they do it. You can exaggerate,
over-exaggerated, or maybe can be a
little close enough, but close enough
isn't good enough. There's mimicking
pupil in a good way. If you look at your
favorite character, maybe saying beyond saying. Because not only
watching movies, it's not movies only where
you find people acting, even in singing, when you
watch the music videos. There's a lot of
acting in there. So don't just focus on movies, focus also on music videos. And pay more attention to them. So if you're looking at beyond
say and how she is like behaving are and let's
say Gabriele union. I know a lot of pupil. They just like how she behaves. And sometimes it can
really, you know, people can act so intensely
that it looks like it's, that's how they
behave in real life. Now, I wouldn't
have an answer to that because I've never
really met them in real life. But, um, if you look at them the way they behave, you know, try to mimic them and try
to do exactly what they do. When I say in a good way, I'm saying try to do
exactly what they're doing. And, you know, you can
put that into practice. It doesn't necessarily
have to be the actors are your
favorite character. Even the ones that you hate, tried to mimic them
in a good way. And then later on mimic
them in a bad way. Like in a nasty manner, like the nasty when
you may make them. Sometimes when somebody tells
you something and they're like genuine wing or maybe in a rude way and then you're
going to mimic them in an STI or whatever. That attitude should
also try to put it into, you should also try
to put into practice. And if you don't do
it with your actors, you can do it with
people around you. Urine. If you mimic
them in a bad way, you don't have to rub
it in their faces. You can just do it
in your own space. So while looking yourself in the mirror or with someone else. And I'm not saying this in order to defend
offend someone, but it's just one of those things that
you need to practice in order to make it
easier for you to play. The one particular role
that you'll be chosen to. Look at how people do things, how they eat, they sleep. If you went to sleep
and snore or even rule, just draw it and
just do it either. Because you might have to just drew in your sleep when acting. And you know how you sit, your posture, your gestures
and everything else. And just how they
behave in general, and how they move and how
they do things and came. And then it will make
it easier for you to pull up even gestures that
you don't have yourself. It'll make it easier for you for movement in order
for you to pull it off. So if you watch how
to train your dragon, There's a scene where
Astrid arrives, where hiccup was with toothless. She arrives there
with her dragon. And Astrid had a little chat about hiccup becoming
achieve taken over. His dad. And hiccup did not
like the whole idea of becoming a chief because
he wasn't about that. He just enjoyed flying
with toothless. Then there was a pod where
Astrid was like mimicking, pick up with the way
he behaves, leg. Hahaha, the way he normally shrugged his
shoulders where these a bit uncomfortable
about something. So Astrid did pull it off. So that means you mimicking someone next
to you like that. Yeah, You can even exaggerated and make it look a bit funnier. And then in the wedding ringer, if you look at Kevin Hart, who has named big Mitchum, like we all know that
Kevin Hart is crazy. But he had to mimic like in a form of taking a roll of different
personalities. For instance, he had
to become a priest. So what was well-respected? Imagine Kevin Hart, the respected
personal like a priest. He wasn't he he acted as a
Roman Catholic priest at 1, where he kidnapped
the priest and took his place just to
marry a couple. Alright, It was
just crazy of him. Now, if you couldn't learn
how to act like that, then trust me, everything, we'll just go with the flow. It will be much easier
for you to just pull off any scenario
that you're given. And then remember, when I talked about mimicking
people in a bad wing. If you've watched the
movie Liar, liar. By Jim Carrey. The comedian. There was a scenario where
they were in a courtroom, and Fletcher was the judge. And then they had a dispute
with the other lawyer. And he pulled off a stand. How he normally plays
around with his face, like making all
those funny faces. And then the lady
was just looking at him a little disgusted
and somehow concerned. And after pulling off
those funny faces, she got annoyed and said, very funny, Fletcher, you
want to play hardball? I'm game. As she turned around, Jim Carrey who was, who played Fletcher,
he mimicked her. But in a nasty way. You want to play yard wall gay. Now, that's exactly what I meant when American
people it and ask away. Because you never, you just want to like make fun
sometimes a little bit of a bad situation that
is capable of upsetting you. Then if you like that, if you just turn it into a joke, that it might just become fun, it won't be so bad at all. Now trying to do it seriously, mega joule, and just don't
do it at the Faisal's. Or it might not be safe. It might be a little risky. Alright. Now I'm moving to the next one. Does speech. When acting, you have to work around your
speech the way you talk. You need to start
talking properly. Let your words, like every single word that
you say, be hard. Okay, don't try to talk fast in whether people
won't hear you, won't be able to hear you. Speak in a way that people be able to hear
what you're saying. Control your words. Control the flow of your
words to avoid mumbling. Because if you mumble, then In the entire movie
might just be a flop because people wanted
to hear what you're saying. And it said if people can't
hear what you're saying, because it makes
the movie boring. Tried to bite in when you talk. Like pronounce every word. And the way it is, don't try to pull off an accent that you
possibly don't even have. If you know that you're busy trying to prove an
American accent, then it's not a good idea because the Americans
or the Americans, okay? If you are a Nigerian
and you have your Nigerian accent, use it. But try to be clear. And pupil, trust me, will understand
what you're saying. I am not Nigerian. Okay. I'm African. But if a Nigerian
starts talking, I understood exactly
what they say. The same applies to even
other accents like Indians. They have their accents, like everywhere people
have their accents. And it only makes it possible for us to hear what they're saying
when they are clear. That's all we need. You don't have to sound
perfect in whatever language that you're using
because you can't. No, every single language. But if you sound
perfect, I mean, if you sound clear, tenders, all we need. Trust me. Alright. So like I never used to
like how Channing humbly, Channing Tatum was the
movie step up one, I think. Now in step up two years 12. Back then, Channing Tatum. Like he, he has this
mumbling accent. With time. I've noticed that
he has improved. But if that's the one example
Channing Tatum is mumbling. And for people who hardly
understand English, then you might not even hear
exactly what he's saying. Well, I'm talking from my
own perspective or sometimes miss out to some
of his contexts. Now the one thing that I've always complained
about when it comes to mumbling the movie
Twilight, AdWord and Bella. Those guys mumbled, they'll
weigh out the entire movie. There was so much mumbling, especially between those two. Everybody else, the supporting characters were perfectly fine. But the main characters,
Edward and Bella. I just found them annoying as much as they were the main
characters in the movie. I really found them annoying
because they will mumbling. They didn't speak
properly, like actors do. Now, good people transfer much
as possible to avoid dash, okay, that, that was a clear
example that I just made. Now, another thing
is the attitude. You need to start to
develop a camera attitude. Just like the models. Just like the models do. If you watch models when they're doing
photography or the catwalk. If you look at
their faces, there, is that what we call
a camera attitude? That they pull off on their, on their faces, that
look on their faces. He needs to start
to imitate them. And while, while you're, while you're added, learn different attitudes for
different scenarios. Learn to act mean. When acting mean. You also have to show
it in your face. The facial expression. Learned to act humble, learned to be malicious,
horrible person. If you're a witch. Or your weekend, for instance, you'll have to act in that way, you know, tried to put
that emotion in your face. Because what matters the most? Remember when you're acting, you are the face of that
particular character. That means you
have to do exactly what you are expected to do. And to give the viewers a
picture of what is happening. You need to act. Learn how to act.
Dominant, dependable. Like you're a dependent person. If and khaki act like
you really cocky, like you own it or
even the way you walk. And then learn also
how to feel small. In a scenario. Less important, you
have to balance all of those ways of acting. Which is why I,
which is attitude. Those different attitudes don't just focus on the negatives, are only on the positives
focus of all of them so that you are able to balance them all and to
put them together.
7. Gestures: 1, again, that goes
with movement. Gestures. You need
to start to learn how to create gestures
and different gestures. They say a lot, even when you're not
seeing anything. But if you create a particular gesture for
a particular scenario, even the viewers out there will understand what is
happening in a movie. Just silently. Now, add them to add
those gestures or action. Actions when talking for people to understand
what you're saying. Even if they don't
understand your language. They should understand
what is happening. They should get a picture
to maybe anticipate that, Oh, she's probably saying this. It makes it easier for people to understand the
movie even clearer. That means even people
who don't understand the language that is
being used in the movie. They could even watch it. Just because it's
more action-oriented. And if you watch a lot of
Bollywood movies and what else? You know, the Chinese movies, they are more action-based. And you get to understand
what's happening in a movie. You can even create a
story yourself when telling someone that movie
itself and what it entails. So obvious, obviously, it
makes it a good movie. If it's like that, when people are able
to understand it. So pay attention. I know this might be crazy, but attention to
our gay brothers. They are dramatic and
they have gestures. Days. Like they just
over-exaggerate the gestures. They tried to be like ladies,
but they exaggerated. They do more than, you know, how ladies behave. So if you look at them and
try not to judge them. But if you try to look at them, they have those gestures that you won't
forget and trust me, you're going to say
something about them when you get home
like, Oh my gosh. This gave rather that
I saw in tower like it was just funny and
doing all that stuff. Because there isn't
one saying gay people. It's because if you
look at the characters, they respond to what's
happening around them. They are highly responsive. So wishes exactly what
we're looking at, what we're looking for. You need to be highly responsive to what's happening around you. And don't just be ignorant. And when you're able
to respond like that, you just find it
easier to just play the part because you don't necessarily
have to be yourself. And you should even learned
to show discomfort. Purchased your gestures. When you're feeling
uncomfortable, just show it for someone out there to see that you're
feeling uncomfortable. And then, you know, when you're up to something, when you're nervous,
when worried, stressed, you can fish it a little
bit to, you know, to show how exactly you feel. Fidget, say maybe
you're feeling nervous. Fidget showing that you're
nervous when you stressed. Show it that you're stressed. So yeah, you must actually
try motor elaborate. You're talking
with your actions. Okay? Yeah. Now, the next point that we're going to discuss
is exaggeration. When you're acting. You have to exaggerate. Oh, like almost
everything that you do. Because, you know,
in the inner movie, you don't have to be normal. You have to exaggerate a little in order to
make it interesting. Because remember, the
reason why we have movies. As for entertainment, and in order for someone to
watch you moving, they have to find
it interesting. Okay? So if a movie is
exactly, is exaggerated, like if you, your
behavior, your movements, your everything is a
little exaggerated, then it will become more
interesting and it will draw more viewers to watching. You're moving. Like you need to show
further action than you do in your normal life or in your day-to-day routines
and don't act to come? No. Yes. You may be given a
scenario where you are coming in a movie
and being calm. I think it's the
easiest thing to do for almost everyone because
being comes simply means keeping a low profile and try to elaborate every single move that
you do and make it clear. If you need to
pick something up, show it that you're
picking something up. It's a move that you need to do. Alright? Don't just be swift
when doing it. Otherwise, the viewers out there won't see
what's happening. Because maybe picking
something up might be an important scenario because maybe that's
something that you're picking up is a part of this scenario. And if people don't see that you're actually
picking something up, then it won't be
significant at all. Okay. So stuff like having to pause
and breathe a little bit. If you need to take a
deep breath, do it. And lipid people see that you're trying to
take a deep breath. And then if you need to
think out loud, just do it. And for the viewers
to hear you out. The way you talk, it must be for the
viewers. Here you are. They must out in a way
that they understand you. Now, if you look at
things like a man, two candies, the way she
just cried after her. The whole scene where she went
to jail and then she came back and when she arrived at
the venue of her wedding, at the hotel where they stayed, she realized that
it was a bit too late in the venue was given to the next client for that particular time slot
that that was booked. So it was a
disappointment for all of them because the
wedding had to happen, but it just almost
got cancelled. To their minds at that point. They felt it was just canceled because they
missed the venue. And now, if you look at the
way the Kennedys cried, and she cried heavily, she didn't scream out
loud or anything. But if you look at the
way she cried, it, you could relate to
how she was feeling. Okay. So that means she cried. She probably doesn't cry
like that in real life. Because maybe some, you
know, when you cry, you do it secretly for
people not to see you, or you just try not to cry. Know whether people
feel sorry for you. Alright. But the weekend is do it. Yes. That's the exact dramatic way
that she needed to do it, which is a little exaggerated. And if you look at Man, Man of Steel, okay? Unless scenario where
Professor Richard was in, was in an aircraft, mentioned that he and he needed
to install the Kodak into that slot where where it was supposed to be switched
on in a plane. You know, if you have
seen that scenario, he he was a bit drained. The aircraft was like, you know, it kept moving
around because there was a lot of
destruction in the air. Because if you remember, there were foreigners from the other planet
and wrote reside. The rest of the guys
that were busy trying to destroy the planet. So the aircraft was facing
a lot of destruction. And you know, it, it, it kept moving.
8. Where To Get Your Cast: Even if you do sing, even if it doesn't make sense, just saying, you can make
up a song I just seen. And then you can even create
a puppet show in the house. Just grab your stock footage and put your hand inside
it and then get to talk. Like it's another
way of entertaining. You can entertain kids. He can enter it in grown-ups
with the puppet show. It doesn't really matter because you're putting it into practice. You don't have to be
perfect from the word go. No, it's not necessary. It will let them respond. Whether it's good or bad. Take it all. Don't just want to hear positive
responses known. Take both of them. Because it will help you to, not to be shy. Because when you're
shy, it means you simply won't be able
to do anything. Now, another thing, guys, you should hang out
more with kids. Because when you
hang out with kids, it simply helps you to go
down to their level as kids. Because when you're acting, trust me, you're like a kid. You're being told what to
do without questioning. You are told to run around
without knowing why, reason, because you're
given an order to do so. Now, trust me, kids are fun. People to hang out with. Will always respond
to your actions. They will always
have a lot to say. And, you know, kids, they easily get entertained. No matter what you do. They get entertained
very easily. They listen to you,
no matter what. Provided that you like, what you ask them to do. They will have
different opinions. Know you do something
or you say something. A kid will always
have an opinion. They always have
something to say. Yeah, that's just true. And what I liked the most about kids is
that they are honest. There'll be honest with you. No matter what, even
if it's offensive, there'll be honest
with you. And us. With kids, we all know
that we should never be offense offensive to whatever they do or whatever they say. They're just kids. And they will enjoy
hanging out with you. The more you give
them attention. Because kids love
attention. Trust me. They want to be you know, they want to be heard. If you make kid feels
special, trust me, they will love you, your company even more. They are never kids, are never too busy to play. You know, if you hang out with kids and you just want
to play with them, trust me, that's the
easiest thing to do. Now let's compare
kids to grownups. A grown-up will be like, Oh, I have an
important phone call. Next thing he wants to stop pressing his phone and be like, oh yeah, a little bit busy. So you won't have enough time
to hang out with grownups, like you will with kids. And you will learn from the different actions
that different responses, that different words, even
the things that they say. There will be so much to learn from kids more than
you learn from adults. And the kids. Don't question much, unlike a doubts Question much as like, Okay, why are we doing this? Why are we playing? Why should we hang
out with, you know, they won't necessarily questions certain things that
adults will question you. And then like for you
to make things easier. It doesn't matter where
do you get the kids from. It can be the kids
in your family. You can put the kids
in your neighborhood. Or you can just pay a
visit to a preschool and to learn the environment of being around, around kids. At the example that I
have here is the movie despicable Me. Those minions. There are kids in
it as much as they are agents of the day. There, his babies, their kids. Now try to put yourself
in his shoes and imagine you have
a bunch of kids. Grew just tells them
do this, they do it. And if they retaliate years, they do retaliate
if they want to. But those are the
different personalities that you need to start
to develop and to learn when you hang
out with kids. Because there's
always something to learn from a kid each day. Because a kid as growing up, they're busy trying
to find themselves. That's why you will
always find something different each day
about every kid. And he is. While we are added. When being an actor, let every mood and moment count. Whatever it is that you do, or whatever mood that you
pull off, let it count. Don't just do something in passing and just
let it be okay. Because when you're acting, you're conveying a message. Now. Every moment must be seen. The event must be understood. In other words, every mood
that you pull off must be precise so that the viewers can get the picture
what is happening. Every movement and mood must go in line
with the scenario. Each scenario that you are n, Remember to prepare a
certain mood for it, for the viewers to
understand what's going on. Because the one important
thing that you want to do is to get the viewers to understand what is happening
in this scenario. Each scenario. Then always remember that the viewers are the only people that you're communicating with. Because you're, you're
conveying a message to them. It's a form of
communication, right? You are trying to
tell them something. You're trying to
recite something, you're trying to tell a story. They are the people
that you're talking to. Now behave like you are in contact with your viewer when acting like, here's
what's happening. And be as precise as
you possibly can. Like the what I'm trying to say is in the movie despicable Me part to the scenario
where Lucy kidnapped grew. And then she got her, if she, she got him in her trunk,
started driving off. The minions, chased Lucy's car until they ended up
getting inside the car. And do you know the minions, how they easily forget
what's happening? They started joking
about what's happening. They forget that they were
chasing Lucy for kidnapping grew because now they started finding a different way
to entertain themselves. They started playing
on the radio, tuning a radio in the car
while she was driving off. And then while they
were doing it, there was a time when Lucy
lifted her finger and slept. One of the minions. And, you know, if you look
at the way she did it, she didn't do it in a way that a normal person would
do it in real life. Because in real life
you just go, right. You just like slept
the present like that. But the way elucidated it, she made it clear
that she was slapping a minute so that we could
see what was happening in which she lived at her
hand slowly and went slab. That's what I meant by that. Every movement, you know, and like every moment
and mod count. And you could see the
expression on her face that she wasn't angry
with the minions. She was like joking
around with them. And, you know, like
even the mood, awesome accounts, it
is very important. Then some time, you
should try spending some time alone and withdraw
from people a little bit. Remember, I asked you to learn these pointers like
each one at a time. Don't just do one of
them at once because it will cause a little confusion to you and to the
people around you. Awesome, because
you're practicing. So spend some time alone. Like go out there and Observe, explore ways
of being creative. Because creativity is
not just around you. It's actually everywhere. It just depends on how you see things in line
with your mindset. So I would say maybe use a
mirror in your own room. Just grab a mirror and use it. Pretend you are your own viewer because you get to see
exactly what is happening. Now with a mirror. You should, you should try to rehearse different
things in a mirror. Almost everything that I
taught you can you can even rehearse all of those
things in the mirror before doing them out
there practically. Now in a mirror. Just visual to be alone. Okay. Because this time
you're trying to concentrate on what
you're actually doing. You should learn how to smile. Learn how to learn
how to show anger, excitement, show depression,
cry in the mirror. Because you want
to see yourself. You want to see if you're
really pulling it off screen. Maybe look at yourself and
look at how you scream. Show aggression. Like talk to it. Like you're talking
to someone else. Because you need to be as much as you won't be
seeing yourself when acting. But you need to feel
good about yourself. You need to feel
confident that you know that you're doing
the right thing. Okay? So the mirror, trust me, will play a very important
role because it will still help you to gain more confidence in the
way you're doing things. Sometimes you can like say, you should have moving. And then you watch that
movie when it's out. And then you realize
that that was horrible. I should have done this,
I should have done that. And in a somehow it will lawyer self-esteem
in a little bit. But yes, you will learn that
you should have done better. But if you look in the mirror, then you will have
enough practice for almost everything for most of the things that you
might have to pull off. So trust me, the mirror
is very important. It is important. Use it. Spent time looking
at pedestrians. You should analyze
the way they work, the way they talked
with they behave. Whether they are
alone or with other, whether it's a single person, or whether it's to people, or whether it's a
group of people can analyze their manners. Because this will
help you to adapt to different personalities
and in acting. Okay? You don't want to look
at yourself, only. You need to look at almost
everyone out there.
9. Be Highly Observant: Looking around because you
need to be highly observant. If you want to be extremely
good at what you do, you need to be highly observant. Look at to the things that are that are in
relevance to your field. You can even go to an extent on watching the animals
out there in the wild. Look at how they walk
and try to imitate them. I'm not saying you should
crawl and walk like a cat. But you do know the catwalk. How a cat moves. Tried to walk like a cat with your two feet. Like models do. Now. Not only looking at cats, look at how a dog walks. Okay. I would say a dog, you know, it's the way that guys normally walk because they
walk like with that, you know, it's the confidence. But in a male perspective, then look at a peacock. The way a peacock walks. It's so like lady-like if, and if it's a male,
it looks lady like. It looks arrogant, proud. And you should also try
to walk like a peacock. Have that attitude. Also, because he needed to
learn different walks and then look at a giraffe
and how it works. You know, it the way it's steps. It's so elegant, so smooth. So it's slow in it's walking. You know, those kind of things. To look at them and try to create your own perspective
in relation to the k. So in other words, you want to be as
creative as possible, like thinking out of the box. If you look at the movie, Honey. The first honey. Honey was in a dance
studio rehearsing. There was a time when the
when when was it the manager? He told honey that she
was missing something, some creativity in her dancing. So she, he, she was expected to come up with something
new to think out of the box. And she knew that she needed to. So she went out there. Like she was just taking a walk. It somehow got her
depressed and a little drained
because, you know, sometimes when you
run out of ideas, it does drain you, especially when you are trying really hard. So that's why I'm
saying go out there. So she went out she
decided to take a walk. In relation to that, if you watched the movie Honey. Those are scenario
when honey was in the studio and there was a
choreography going down. And while rehearsing,
the manager, he told tiny that she was missing something,
some creativity. Maybe what she was doing was a little cliche or too obvious. But sometimes, you know, if you're not
feeling what you're doing or what someone
else is doing. That it means you
need to come up with something that
is totally different. You need to think
out of the box. Go crazy with your thinking. So honey was told to add some vibe to the choreography that she was doing
in the studio. Honey got a little depressed because she thought
she was doing a lot. But only to find out that
doing a lot and not be enough. You need to add a
little creative. That's why I'm saying you
need to go out there. Honey. One day. Yeah. In the next scene, she took a walk and came across the basketball
guys at a court. She approached them and washed them for some time,
a couple of seconds. And then she started
developing ideas. You know, that's another
way of being flexible. She started developing ideas from just watching the
basketball players. And then when she went back to the dance studio to rehearse, she came up with the dance move, where she was demonstrating
a basketball player playing around with
the basketball and then shooting the hoop. Then the manager liked it, like he really liked it. Why? Because it was creative. She thought way out of the box. I mean, for a moment, who would think of creating a
dance move by demonstrating a basketball player at something
out handsome saying to go out there and
observe and create, creates something that's
way out of the box. From what you see. Easy things. You don't have to
go complicated. Right? Now. After all of these
pointers that I've given you about how to about acting. The things that you should add, add to your acting and
your daily routines. Now, you need to have
control of your behavior. Okay? Because it's, it's really important to know how to
control your behavior. You need to learn how
to accept criticism. Because when you are doing something and you
don't get criticism, then what's the whole
point of doing it? It means you're not
creating any vibe. Okay? So does constructive criticism. Let people talk and listen to what they have
to say? Once he did. Try to work around
their comments. And try to also worker
on what do you do. This will help you improve. When pupils say pause, it will give you positive
remarks and it's fine. But don't get too relaxed. When people give you
negative remarks. Don't feel down about it. It's simply, it's
actually a good thing. It simply means that
you need to improve. And then sometimes you might get people of different genres
seeing a lot about you. For instance, dopey, elderly people who don't
understand acting at all. Well, not only elderly people, but most cases, it could
be elderly people. But there are some people who just simply don't
understand acting at all. Those people, whatever it
is that they say to you. Obviously, they won't say positive things because they
don't understand acting. And maybe their own like it. Just try to work with
what they tell you. Don't take it in a bad way. Then the people who hate
movies, you know, who, who just say offensive
things about what you do. Still. Don't take
it too seriously. Because remember guys,
no matter what you do, not everyone will like it. Not everyone will hate it. Try looking at famous
people that you know, who are actors or music artists, or even watch people
in the public. Maybe political leaders or so. And just making an example. If you look at them like
the overall part of life, is that if you look at one person in those
different fields, you will realize that there are some people
who might like them. There's some people who
might not like them. Your prime minister or
president or your king. You may or may not like him for such and such
and such reasons. Your celebrities, there
are some that you like. There's something
that you don't like. There are some that you
don't pay attention to because they don't have that impact in your viewership. The same applies to you
whether you like it or not. Because if you don't get an
error response from people, whether it's good
or bad, it means you don't exist at all. But if you do get a response, if people have something
to say about you, then it means you are human. Does nothing wrong with you. Because there's movement,
there's something happening in your life and you're creating
an impact to people. So please guys, don't feel terrible when someone
out there doesn't like you. It's normal because
you in return, if someone out there
that you don't like no, because they have offended you, but for your own reasons. And then another thing is
that you should never give up because of the negative
remarks that people tell you? Don't. Because like I said, not everyone or leg what you do and not everyone
will hate what you do. When you are in the
entertainment industry. Pupil, just talk. They always have a lot
to say and trust me, it's not just the
entertainment industry, every field, every industry. So don't get too emotional. You need to be highly superficial
when it comes to this. Because you have to bear in mind that when it comes to acting, you're not being yourself. You're just paying that
image temporarily. Just to entertain the view was you need to stand
up for what you like. If you really love
to be an actor, do it, you shouldn't care
what people have to say. Just do it. If you get negative
remarks in some of them, you don't necessarily
need to work around them. You just have to ignore them. Because there'll be people out there who try to put you down. Now be that one person who just refuses to be led down,
stand your ground. And you don't always have
to necessarily reply. If they keep throwing all
of those things to you, those negative remarks, you
don't always have to reply. You can just ignore them. That could be a
good cure for them. And for yourself to King. And then while you
are added, guys, like onset or maybe like when
a production is going down. Guys, remember, always
be humble and obedient. Because when you
are at this point, after all of these traits that I have mentioned
and shared with you, you have to always keep in mind that someone who
is in control came, someone who's in
control of all of this, which is the director. He's in charge of
what is happening. You need to listen
to your director. Be obedient. At this stage. You should forget
about being yourself. And learn to listen. And be a good listener. Listen to what you
have to be told. Take instructions properly. Be attentive. K. Like this is where you keep your personality
traits in control.
10. Value Of Temper: Alright guys, your temper. This is where you learn
how to control it. Because in a When does the movie when does a
production running? Guys. We don't need any conflicts. We don't need any disputes. We don't need to have to go through any
misunderstandings. If you know that
something's not right. You need to forget about
anything that's personal. Because the work has to be done. You need to start shooting. And then whatever it
is that went wrong. Maybe as long as it didn't
distract the shooting, as long as it wasn't in
front of the camera. It will be worked on afterwards. Because what's important
is having a shoot done properly and accurately. So forget about anything
that's personnel and focus on what has to happen. That job must be done. Here, guys, is where you need
to be highly disciplined. Forget about your attitude. You know, if you're a bossy
person, forget about it. You are humble and an obedient person because you're going to have to listen
to what you're being told. Imagine you are implied and you're given
instructions to do at work. Yes. You're going to have to do those instructions properly because you have
someone out there that you need to impress,
which is your boss. And your boss's impressed than everything else
works out perfectly. But if the bus is not impressed, trust me, this is where
you lose your job. You don't want to lose your job. And if anything
goes wrong on set, comes with heavy penalties. Because you're not just
going to walk away. You don't want to do that. The movie must be done. And if anything goes wrong, you will discuss it out there in person with the team, the crew. Not onset. Onset is
where everything happens because they work
with a lot of timing. Okay? Now keep that in mind. Maintain your discipline. Now. After all this guys, after this lesson
that I've given you, watch movies at a
different angle. Now that I've discussed
all of these with you, you need to watch movies. Now, not for entertainment this time, but for observation. Look at how the
actors pull it off. See yourself pulling it off two. Or let me say, doing a better job. Try to analyze the
acting styles, detect the good and
the bad actors. You must be able to tell whether someone is
a good or a bad actor. Find solutions also for whatever that you find negative in white when
watching him moving. Think of a solution yourself. That you could have. If you were to think
of something right? Now, what I'm trying to tell you in general is that when
you watch a movie, you should try not to. Think of a genre that you like. Watch every movie. Just watch all of them. You know, whatever, move it as you come across,
just watch it. And, um, you will learn
how to understand them better if you try to analyze them instead of watching them just
for entertainment. Okay guys, now, movies will
help you to do things better. Because now in the
movie industry, the next actor and you're
trying to be the finest. Another thing is that
if you watch cartoons, guys, I know not
everyone likes cartoons. But if you watch cartoons, you'll realize that It's the best way to
enhance your skills. Because cartoons I
even more dramatic than people in general. Look at the worthy walk. Look at the way they eat, the way they do things. If you watch them and
try to act like them, somehow, try to fit
in their shoes. Trust me, you will improve
your dramatic skills. And even if, like I said, when you improve your gestures in the cartoons, In cartoons, you're able to see
what's happening, even if you don't understand the language because cartoons or more dramatic action based. So if you try to understand
watching cartoons, then newly exactly what
I'm trying to tell you. Everything will make sense. Now, even if you're
not going to act and cartoons guys, just watch them. It'll improve your
acting skills. Then. Learn not to hate guys. Yeah, because if you hate, then you will miss out
on a lot of things. For instance, if there's a person that you
hate out there, you need to try to brush it
off because you might just act with that person
that you hate. And while, when acting, you are going to have to, if we get about
your personal life, you're going to act, right. And forget about
hating that person. Then. Sometimes it can be hating, hating something in
general can be anything. And you might just be
given a role where you just have to act the part
that you hate the most. If you hate eating in public, you're going to have to
eat in public when acting. And you're going to
have to do it right. Now, guys, just in general, learn not to hate. Because that's one of the
most dangerous things that you don't want to face when it comes
to reality of acting now.
11. Conclusion: So to conclude, guys, everything that I've
mentioned, please practice. Always practice. And don't get tired. Because if you do get tired, imagine now you're
acting and you've been, there have been many
mistakes done by you as an actor and by the
crew in general. Say the camera operator
did something wrong or you experienced
unnecessary ambient. And you have to keep repeating the same scenario
over and over again. You're not going to have a chance to fall
tired and be like, You know what, I'm done? No. No, I get tired. You'd rather have breaks
not to think of giving up. So guys, with everything
that I've taught you, this brings us to an end.
12. Class Project: I really hope you enjoyed the
lesson and that you really do absorb everything that I
have shared with you guys. For your class project. I need you to learn all of
these steps one at a time. Each one of them take into
consideration and put into practice with time guys and
be very patient. Be patient. And, you know, things
will start progressing. And once you're done
doing that, yes, start acting and let me know. Send me a feedback. Tell me what you did. You can even send clips
to elaborate what you did so that I can see how
you managed to pull it off. Okay, guys. And thank you
once again for watching. Until next time. Cheers.
