Day 2

We did these questions and I will answer them with what we learnt and did today.
How do you think film and TV acting might be different or similar to theatre acting?
Well there are many diffrent reasons why they are diffrent a few that  are simler, for instance some TV shows can be like live theatre but most of them are not. TV and film cost a lot more money and like theatre, Film and TV can have sets  It is just that Film and TV sets can look better and half the time they do not need sets because they can go to loctions which Theatre can't do.
What do you think a director would expect from an actor if they were looking to cast for a film/TV?
Well I'm going to put a list down for this one first off
  1. They are looking for a postive attitude not someone who complains a lot or is nasty to everyone they are looking for friendly people that can do teamwork and not try and kill people.
  2. People who can behave and be Professional not monkey around and act childish when they are not on stage, because a they might break something or ruin a scene and if they are being too loud the michrophone could pick it up and they would have to do the scene again
  3. Looks well, I don't mean like handsome or pretty well they could be, but they are looking for people that  look like the character they want for example: They might want a tall white male there not going to pick a small white female now are they.
What would a director not want to see?

What kind of shots and frame styles (eg close up, etc) might you be using when you shoot your films?
How might you have to change your acting to suit the shot?
