Dos and Don'ts when performing

      Hello,
I am going to talk about the dos and don'ts when you're acting in an audience, or when you're doing film acting. What I would like to say first is the key to good acting is not facing your back to the audience. This isn't something you should do at all. That's cos if you do only half of the audience can see your face when you perform. You may not face your back toward the camera, either when you do acting. Unless if you're told to. I hope that you enjoy the rest of the dos and don'ts of this blog as I list them in what you should do and what you shouldn't do.

       Dos
1. Show eye contact. You'll want to do this to show the audience that you're talking to them, not the ground of the stage.

2. Have your lines memorized. You should probably already know this, but this should be self explanatory. You don't want to be staring off into space when your line is next saying, " I forgot my line",

3. Practice. This is another self explanatory one as well as the last one.  You'll need to practice your lines and rehearse them too. There's no need to have an excuse that you can't perform.

        Now here is what not to do:

1. Don't have your lines be expressionless. If your character has an anxious attitude all the time. Show the anxious attitude.

2. Don't ignore the parenthesis in the script. They're there to help with what you need to do in that particular scene.

3. Don't do the opposite of what you're supposed to do in your script. This could get the audience confused with what you're supposed to do.

        That's the end of what not to do when performing in both Theatre and Film acting. Here are some links to get you the idea of what to do. These links will be of my favourite actress, Kate Winslet, and my favourite actor, Leonardo Dicaprio.
