I would be Jennifer Lawrence. She is well known for her acting abilities and I would give anything to be as talented her. Out of all the actresses in the world I believe she is the most down to earth carefree celebrity. Anyone who has watched her interviews knows that she is straightforward and does not read from a script. She has an amazing personality and hair to die for. I wish I could go back in time to when she first started her acting career so I could live out how she made it big. I would…
De Niro is a Method Actor. Method Acting is a form of acting that was originally developed by Konstantin Stanislavsky. Although the technique Stanislavsky initially taught has evolved over the years, his theory is still the basis of all acting studios that teach method acting. Stanislavsky focused on the idea of ‘emotion memory’. He indicated that an actor should use a combination of their own personal memories and imagination to find an emotional ‘truth’ within a character (Konstantin…
As class has progressed this semester I have seen such a difference in the way I approach text and breath through my acting. Breath has been a continual theme, but it is really not about the air moving into our lungs being absorbed into our blood stream and then the CO2 exiting our bodies. What makes breath so special in response to voice is and how we use this very scientific process to make emotional connections and expressive actions that joins us as humans to each other and connects an actor…
schools should accommodate its students. Students are typically taught at one level, which should not be the case considering there are many different learning techniques. In school the main focus is for students to have an equal learning experience. In Acting Out Culture, many authors tell readers how education should accommodate to every student because of the different ways to learn. Writer Alfie Kohn, author of "From Degrading to De-grading," tells readers how grades do not seem…

Positions focusing more on left brained individuals are portrayed as a practical choice, while positions focusing more towards the right brain are viewed as unrealistic and dead ends. An acting career is believed to be very impractical even though many well loved stars exist; therefore, those who pursue acting are thought to be foolish. "I always felt like…
many comedians by taking risks and showing that a person must sometimes make a fool of themselves to make their dream a reality. Owning her own production company made Lucille Ball a great role model and changed the way that women and men view the acting industry. Ball Stood for many rights, this made her a leader and showed what kind of person she was. Many more opportunities would have been made if Lucille Ball took one more risk or chose a different path. Did she pave the way more people than…
In my perspective, Jaques is indeed correct when he affirms that everyone plays many acting roles throughout a lifetime. Life is certainly played out through a series of phases, or story lines, that seem to change the person and the purpose of their life at certain moments. You’re born a baby not able to walk, let alone talk one bit, but the baby is the first character, or actor throughout a lifetime. There are series of parts, or different roles throughout the entrance of the role as a baby,…
For my piece of practical work I had to frequently switch characters and successfully convey the differences between each part I played through the use of my acting skills. In the earlier stages of rehearsals I was concentrating on my role as a student and my role as teacher. In one scene I immediately change role from that of a teacher to a student. When playing my role of Emily Griffin a year 11 student I first put on an accent to correspond to the area my character was living in and therefore…
