Acting​ ​Teachers​ ​and​ ​Acting​ ​Coaches Therein​ ​lies​ ​the​ ​difference​ ​between​ ​a​ ​teacher​ ​and​ ​a​ ​lecturer.​ ​A​ ​good​ ​lecturer​ ​is​ ​someone​ ​who can​ ​impart​ ​clear​ ​and​ ​useful​ ​knowledge.​ ​A​ ​teacher​ ​is​ ​someone​ ​who​ ​not​ ​only​ ​imparts​ ​clear​ ​and useful​ ​knowledge​ ​but​ ​also​ ​impacts​ ​change.​ ​A​ ​good​ ​teacher​ ​will​ ​not​ ​only​ ​make​ ​good​ ​sense​ ​with their​ ​notes​ ​but​ ​will​ ​also​ ​have​ ​the​ ​ability​ ​to​ ​connect​ ​with​ ​their​ ​students​ ​in​ ​a​ ​way​ ​that​ ​will​ ​facilitate positive​ ​change​ ​in​ ​their​ ​work.​ ​The​ ​best​ ​teachers​ ​are​ ​able​ ​to​ ​get​ ​immediate​ ​improvement​ ​from their​ ​actors.​ ​That’s​ ​what​ ​you’re​ ​looking​ ​for.​ ​Find​ ​one​ ​of​ ​them.

Rehearsing​ ​with​ ​Scene​ ​Partners​ ​Outside​ ​of​ ​Class I​ ​think​ ​rehearsing​ ​with​ ​your​ ​partner​ ​outside​ ​of​ ​class​ ​is​ ​a​ ​bad​ ​idea.​ ​I’m​ ​not​ ​talking​ ​about​ ​running lines​ ​with​ ​someone.​ ​I’m​ ​talking​ ​about​ ​full​ ​blown​ ​rehearsing,​ ​blocking,​ ​props,​ ​etc.​ ​I​ ​can​ ​give​ ​you plenty​ ​of​ ​reasons​ ​why​ ​I​ ​feel​ ​this​ ​way.​ ​Number​ ​one​ ​is​ ​that​ ​you​ ​are​ ​never​ ​given​ ​a​ ​similar

http://www.maggieflaniganstudio.com/acting-classes-nyc/ opportunity​ ​in​ ​a​ ​working​ ​environment.​ ​Professionals​ ​don’t​ ​get​ ​together​ ​to​ ​work​ ​on​ ​scenes​ ​on their​ ​own.​ ​It’s​ ​all​ ​done,​ ​on​ ​stage,​ ​on​ ​set,​ ​in​ ​front​ ​of​ ​the​ ​director​ ​and​ ​crew.

Okay,​ ​but​ ​what​ ​would​ ​it​ ​hurt​ ​if​ ​you​ ​did​ ​it​ ​anyway? The​ ​actors​ ​I’ve​ ​worked​ ​with​ ​who​ ​come​ ​from​ ​a​ ​background​ ​of​ ​rehearsing​ ​on​ ​their​ ​own​ ​with​ ​scene partners​ ​are​ ​frequently​ ​lost​ ​when​ ​they​ ​get​ ​up​ ​in​ ​front​ ​of​ ​people​ ​and​ ​try​ ​to​ ​rehearse​ ​a​ ​scene​ ​for the​ ​first​ ​time,​ ​which​ ​is​ ​exactly​ ​what​ ​you’ll​ ​be​ ​doing​ ​every​ ​time​ ​you​ ​book​ ​a​ ​job.​ ​You​ ​will​ ​have made​ ​the​ ​mistake​ ​of​ ​having​ ​gotten​ ​used​ ​to​ ​working​ ​your​ ​stuff​ ​out​ ​and​ ​getting​ ​comfortable​ ​with your​ ​scene​ ​partner​ ​before​ ​ever​ ​coming​ ​to​ ​the​ ​set.​ ​This​ ​is​ ​a​ ​false​ ​security​ ​you​ ​do​ ​not​ ​want​ ​to nurture. Sets​ ​aren’t​ ​always​ ​quiet​ ​focused​ ​laboratories,​ ​where​ ​concentration​ ​can​ ​be​ ​found​ ​in​ ​abundance. There​ ​are​ ​all​ ​sorts​ ​of​ ​distractions.​ ​You​ ​often​ ​meet​ ​the​ ​star​ ​of​ ​the​ ​show​ ​right​ ​before​ ​you​ ​run​ ​the scene.​ ​As​ ​you’re​ ​running​ ​the​ ​scene​ ​with​ ​the​ ​star​ ​you​ ​just​ ​met,​ ​there​ ​is​ ​generally​ ​a​ ​person​ ​down on​ ​the​ ​ground​ ​placing​ ​colored​ ​bits​ ​of​ ​tape​ ​corresponding​ ​to​ ​where​ ​you​ ​seem​ ​to​ ​stop​ ​in​ ​the scene.​ ​These​ ​bits​ ​of​ ​tape​ ​are​ ​used​ ​as​ ​focal​ ​length​ ​marks​ ​so​ ​they​ ​can​ ​keep​ ​you​ ​in​ ​focus​ ​when they​ ​shoot​ ​the​ ​scene.​ ​In​ ​your​ ​periphery​ ​you​ ​may​ ​notice​ ​a​ ​lot​ ​of​ ​crew​ ​silently​ ​milling​ ​about,​ ​not out​ ​of​ ​disrespect,​ ​they​ ​just​ ​have​ ​to​ ​get​ ​ready​ ​for​ ​this​ ​scene​ ​or​ ​the​ ​next. TV​ ​and​ ​movie​ ​sets​ ​are​ ​always​ ​in​ ​a​ ​battle​ ​with​ ​the​ ​clock.​ ​It​ ​can​ ​all​ ​be​ ​more​ ​than​ ​a​ ​little​ ​distracting and​ ​you​ ​really​ ​can’t​ ​afford​ ​to​ ​be​ ​distracted.​ ​You​ ​need​ ​to​ ​get​ ​used​ ​to​ ​the​ ​way​ ​it’s​ ​going​ ​to​ ​be. Daniel​ ​Day​ ​Lewis​ ​is​ ​not​ ​going​ ​to​ ​invite​ ​you​ ​to​ ​his​ ​house​ ​to​ ​run​ ​the​ ​scene​ ​a​ ​bunch​ ​of​ ​times​ ​and then​ ​drink​ ​wine​ ​with​ ​you​ ​while​ ​you​ ​the​ ​two​ ​of​ ​you​ ​cook​ ​pasta​ ​and​ ​laugh​ ​the​ ​night​ ​away.​ ​He’ll​ ​just show​ ​up​ ​on​ ​set​ ​looking​ ​like​ ​Lincoln,​ ​you’ll​ ​address​ ​him​ ​as​ ​Mr.​ ​President,​ ​and​ ​then​ ​get​ ​on​ ​with​ ​it. Rehearsing​ ​alone​ ​with​ ​your​ ​scene​ ​partner​ ​is​ ​a​ ​lousy​ ​habit.​ ​It​ ​won’t​ ​happen​ ​in​ ​a​ ​professional circumstance.​ ​Avoid​ ​it​ ​whenever​ ​possible.

Yeah,​ ​but​ ​still,​ ​what​ ​would​ ​it​ ​hurt​ ​if​ ​you​ ​did​ ​it​ ​anyway? The​ ​worst​ ​part​ ​of​ ​working​ ​without​ ​a​ ​director​ ​is​ ​the​ ​need​ ​for​ ​the​ ​actors​ ​to​ ​watch​ ​themselves.​ ​If there​ ​is​ ​no​ ​one​ ​to​ ​assess​ ​the​ ​situation​ ​for​ ​you,​ ​you​ ​will​ ​need​ ​to​ ​do​ ​it​ ​yourself.​ ​You’ll​ ​have​ ​to​ ​pay attention​ ​to​ ​your​ ​behavior​ ​in​ ​a​ ​way​ ​that​ ​you​ ​wouldn’t​ ​in​ ​life.​ ​You’ll​ ​end​ ​up​ ​subtly​ ​directing​ ​each

http://www.maggieflaniganstudio.com/acting-classes-nyc/ other​ ​and​ ​yourself.​ ​This​ ​is​ ​not​ ​genuine​ ​human​ ​behavior.​ ​We​ ​are​ ​certainly​ ​conscious​ ​of​ ​most​ ​of our​ ​behavior​ ​in​ ​life,​ ​but​ ​two​ ​actors​ ​in​ ​the​ ​scene​ ​by​ ​themselves​ ​will​ ​have​ ​to​ ​be​ ​extra​ ​vigilant.​ ​This will​ ​necessitate​ ​concerning​ ​yourself​ ​with​ ​details​ ​a​ ​real​ ​person​ ​would​ ​never​ ​concern​ ​himself​ ​with. This​ ​will​ ​become​ ​a​ ​bad​ ​habit​ ​and​ ​will​ ​lead​ ​to​ ​the​ ​actor​ ​always​ ​bringing​ ​a​ ​little​ ​bit​ ​of​ ​false behavior​ ​into​ ​his​ ​work.​ ​You​ ​want​ ​to​ ​be​ ​in​ ​an​ ​environment​ ​that’ll​ ​allow​ ​you​ ​to​ ​most​ ​honestly pursue​ ​the​ ​needs​ ​of​ ​your​ ​character.​ ​Always​ ​rehearsing​ ​in​ ​front​ ​of​ ​a​ ​teacher​ ​or​ ​director​ ​can​ ​solve this​ ​problem.

This is not genuine human behavior. We are certainly conscious of most of. our behavior in life, but two actors in the scene by themselves will have to be extra vigilant. This. will necessitate concerning yourself with details a real person would never concern himself with. This will become a bad habit and will lead to the actor ...
