Learn how to create an Oscar winning performance

Escuela de teatro en Los Angeles

Recibo llamadas de agentes y gestores todo el tiempo preguntándome si creo que un determinado actor tiene talento. Muy rara vez hago  digo que no ; la mayoría de los actores tienen talento. Recuerdo a Stella Adler quien solía decir , “usted tiene que tener un talento para el talento” lo que significa : Tienes que trabajar fuertemente. Todos los días cumple con los pasos que debes tomar para que te acerques mas a tus sueños, lo cual es trabajar mucho como actor. Cuando usted está constantemente reservando , usted utiliza su instrumento todo el tiempo, así que esta sintonizado . Cuando no está trabajando en un programa , el instrumento se oxida , oh tan pronto, así que tienes que tomarte a ti mismo al gimnasio de actuación. Usted tiene que hacer el trabajo antes de conseguir el trabajo . Hacer ejercicio en una clase de actuación , donde tienes la oportunidad de flexionar los músculos , el trabajo en obras de teatro o guiones que son exactamente para ti , o personajes para los cuales nunca audiciones, pero eso te estirara y te expandirá.

 

Actores tienen que trabajar constantemente en escribir algo que les emocione. Sé parte de una comunidad de gente con talento que puede llamar y decir: ” Vamos a reunirnos y trabajar fuera hoy ; vamos a elegir el material y trabajar en él . ” Esa es una gran llamada de teléfono para hacer . Para nutrir su talento interpretativo tiene que trabajar en su voz. Con el micrófono o la pluma tan cerca , es un error pensar que la voz no es una prioridad. El trabajar en su voz mejora  su rendimiento actuando.

 

Garrett Backstrom el joven actor que hizo el papel de Herman en mi película “Hello Herman” estaba disparando una de sus escenas esenciales . Fue un rodaje nocturno, 4 a.m. para ser exactos. Tenía que mantenerse despierto con bebidas energéticas . Cuando probé la exhibición de la película , el público no se noto tan conmovido como yo quería que estuvieran. Eso fue porque en ese momento climático , la voz de Garrett no estaba conectada a su cuerpo . Decidí que la escena se tenía que volver a grabar y ensayar con él esa escena muy específicamente , vocalmente , y cuando probamos la exhibición nuevamente –  la diferencia era la noche y el día.

 

Encuentra una calidez vocal hasta que lo hagas todos los días para que todo tu cuerpo pueda ser un recipiente emocional para el idioma que se va a través de ti . Haga ejercicios de actuación que tienen que ver con factores desencadenantes sensoriales. Ellos van a ser sus impulsores . Trabaja en tres sentidos todos los días, los básicos . Beber una bebida caliente , oler la naturaleza, y escuchar un sonido intenso. Crea escenarios para ti mismo .

 

Flexionar los músculos en la actuación es equivalente a pianistas tocando el piano , y los violinistas violín. La única manera de sentir tu potencial como actor es encontrar una manera de actuar durante todo el día , todos los días . Un actor actúa . Un actor ve.  Amplía sus horizontes . Tienes que ver tantas cosas como puedas ver , ve al cine , ve o lee entrevistas con artistas y biografías, visita museos , asiste a festivales. Aporta algo a una causa . Así es como consolidarás tu talento.
