Thanks for all your help , I auditioned for a certain film ut I got rejected , but u inspired me to try again and hopefully soon I'll be expecting positive feedback from them!

I have no intention to be an actor, but a couple of weeks ago, I decided to help my friend in her recent play, she's the director and she made me the lead role to a theater about a detective solving a crime and whenever I try to say the lines seeing my friends serious faces always makes me laugh and mess it up if thats not the case I just mess up the lines in general, they are really counting on me with this and these tips really helped me, tysm!!❤❤

Thanks girl!
1. Observe people (or your friends) immitate their personalities and how they move.

2. Don't overdo pratice. Memorize the words and then put it to action.

3. Seek Feedback.

4. Use our body to express your emotions. Motions, body language, gestures, pacing, use the space for your actions

I just discovered your channel and I want to thank you for these tips! I will check out your other videos and I already subscribed. A movie director (and actor) is filming a short 3-5 day film and wrote a role specifically for me and this takes place this April (my birth month) I’m excited but definitely gonna be nervous but these videos are giving me the backbone I need. 💙

Hey makayla I have no acting experience and I am shy but I am really inspired by many actors and I would love to improve my skills but I feel like I don’t have any talent so it’s hard for me to launch myself and I don’t know if I have the potential do you think even though my lack of experience my will can make me become an actrice ?

@Gabiyt-t2u

Hannah’s submission I really loved it and she did rlly good and her acting was awesome I feel like she needs more emotion and on the part where she said “you were my mom too” I needed more emotion and I wanted her to exaggerate that part like Fiona did over all it was beautiful and clean . She’s beautiful as well and her voice rlly goes with it imo

I used to be a model and a commercial actress when I was younger but quit because it kind of got toxic and my parents didn’t have the time to take me out of state while balancing their work. I really want to get into acting again but I’m not sure if I could ever :( do you have any thoughts?? ❤❤

Stuttering between each child's achievment would make it even more realistic, as when you are in the heat of the moment you don't think but talk and talk and talk

@foxy89074

Caleb McLaughlin said himself that he tries to get each scene taken in one shot so that it feels more natural and more raw so that it feels real. Also sometimes saying something different than what's in the script can be better, as long as it's not completely different to the original
