Holiday Traditions

Hello,
        I am going to be letting you guys know that I am still alive, but I have been so busy. As you know that the Holidays are coming up and Advent is also starting up as well. This is probably the most exciting time of my life and I am not lying about that. I am not sure about you guys, but I love Christmas. My most favourite tradition is to go to church for a candlelight service every Christmas Eve. 
        When I was younger, we used to open one present every Christmas Eve. Unfortunately, that tradition has died down. Now that I am older, we wait to open all of the presents on Christmas Day. Here is a link to more holiday traditions from FleurdeForce Holiday Traditions Tag! 

That's pretty much it with the traditions. I am actually starting a new tradition this year for Christmas. I am going to let you know on what this is in another blog. Here is a link to " The Holiday ' Monologue

Sorry that I haven't been making a video lately

Hey,
I know that I haven't been making a video in a while. There is a reason why I haven't been making one. The main reason is because I have been really busy with the new school year starting and such. This means that I will be making a video when I can, which means that I might not make one until October or so. I am sorry for all the fact that I haven't made a video in three weeks.

I will be on my blog frequently. Be sure that You check it out soon. Mm

What classes should you take to prep you for Acting

    Hello,
Today's blog is going to be all about what kind of classes you should take in order to make you prepared for Acting. I got all of this advice from other people who have lots of acting experience.With that being said, let's get started. 

  What you should think about is what kind of classes allow lots of speaking. Therefore, you take classes like Drama for A levels, if you live in the UK. You should also take Speach and Debate. You should also audition for school plays whenever there is one. I have actually been in a school play, and I would reckon you do too if you're interested in becoming an actor an actress. 

That's all for today.

What is the most successful place to start an acting career?

            Today's topic is on the most successful places for your acting career. First of all, in my opinion, I think that it doesn't really matter what kind of place you live in; as long as there's acting work to do. Second of all, you may want to think about moving to some place like Los Angeles or London to start your acting career, for there's lots of successful people there. You'd also want to think about the agencies that are around there, and try to put that into consideration. If you would like to know more about acting agencies, go to my other blog about acting agencies.
             Getting back on topic, there's always an opportunity on what kind of community theatre that you can do. Every country, town, or city should have a community theatre to volunteer at. The first thing to be successful is to start by being in plays, and be an extra in a movie. That's only if you don't have any acting experience at all. Most agencies that you go to prefer that you have experience in acting, just so you know what it's like to be on set. Otherwise, you'd be assigned most likely to be an extra. The key here is to have experience.
               Anyways, I decided to make this post about my video because lots of people want to be actors when they grow up, including me. Lots of people wonder if they can get success where they live. They look up all of these websites to see if there's any casting calls. It turns out that there's not. The point here is to get an agent in order to get acting work. Pretty simple, right? Yeah.

               The point is to find your own path to success and fame is to work on living with your opportunities that you have as a future actor.

Additional information of my new video on youtube

     Hey,
I wanted to make this blog telling you guys about why I haven't been making videos for about a month.  I was sick for quite some time and was too weak to even make a video. I didn't want to make a video with my nose all stuffy and me coughing, and my voice sounding terrible. It just wouldn't sound right, and probably lots of people would be wondering why I made a video when I am sick. I have also been crammed with exams and my birthday as well. I was also sick on my birthday, which made it hard to enjoy my birthday.
     I am going to get right to the point of additional information about getting started with acting. What I would recommend you doing is try looking at passages from a book, or make up your own monologues with every emotion you can possibly think of. It doesn't have to be long, just maybe thirty seconds up to a minute long. Practice the monologues every day. This will help with your emotions when you act. I can't exactly remember what I was going to say more of about acting.

Basics of film acting

    Hello,
I am going to talk to you guys all about the basics of Film acting. There are several things you need to know about film acting that you should know. First, know that you're not performing in front of an audience that would give you feedback on your performance. Therefore, the director and the producer will correct you on how you're doing during rehearsal. You should also know that film acting is something that you need to think of more, and you need to have lots of skills at in order to be successful. Television runs the same way, only there isn't that many genres of television to choose from. My point is to make sure you know that you're in front of a camera, not an audience.
     Here are also some tips that you need for film acting :

1. Know exactly where the camera(s) are at all times. You want the camera to see your face, not the other way around. You'll give a fabulous performance on the location of where the camera(s) are.

2. Know what the camera is capturing. For example, if you're off in the distance away from a person you're supposed to be talking to. Then, the performance would be completely absurd. My advice to you is not trying to be what the camera doesn't need to capture.

3. Know where the actors are and the props' location at all times. You don't want the camera to end up blocking the actor behind you by your use of a simple gesture like waving your hand to turn into a blocking of someone else.

       You also need to focus very consistently, meaning that you need to show very strong hold on your acting. You will deliver the best performance if you use your consistency in acting, because of the fact that it's caught on film or videotapes nowadays, right? Wrong, when rehearsing your lines and actions are performed more than once in order to get the lines and actions right. Think of several television shows and films. I guarantee that if you ever saw the behind the scenes footage, you'll hear the same lines repeat over and over again.
       There's also a lot of angles that cameras use to shoot the footage, not just one angle. The director's of the film or television show know exactly what they're doing, if you don't follow their advice. Then, tough luck cos you need to do what they suggest. Directors will want the scene done in different ways, if the director doesn't like what he or she saw.

That's about it for this blog post. See you later.
