Good Acting vs GREAT Acting

[@tanuverma7420]

1. Be vulnerable 2. Listen to your co-actor 3. Focus on intention 4. Little change in walks , gestures 5. Change of tone like exaggerating or elongating words . Thats what i learned 😅...

How did it fall apart

[@Actortainment]

As an actor I appreciate this video very much. Not about how much you can cry on command but how you let go and whatever prep you’ve done for the scene. What the actor let’s come naturally bubble to the surface is what (I think) makes a great actor from a good one. Not forcing. Once you force you’re telling and not showing the story of the character. Once you “have to do this” you’re not trying to show the character breath and react within the scene. Loved the video!

[@fromtheframe]

High praise then coming from you! Really happy that you appreciated the video, and glad we could take the time to acknowledge the value that great acting (however one wants to define that) adds to the collaborative effort of the filmmaking process.

takeaway: watch actors on actors

[@fromtheframe]

Can't tell if this is sarcasm or not, but that's not a bad takeaway to have! If you're interested in acting, it's definitely a great resource where you can find actors discussing their processes.

[@josh043p6]

I think eyes play a major role in a great performance. Our eyes tell us so much about how we're feeling, so its a great way for us to truly feel a character's emotion when done right. A great actor who does this I think is Daniel Kaluuya.

[@fromtheframe]

Couldn't agree more, Kaluuya is a fantastic actor!

Not aiming for a result but having prescribed dialogue and actions is the actor’s paradox!

[@hanacinnabun]

Yes!

[@kristianpeterson2571]

The comments at the 3:05 mark are huge. So many actors in class aim for the emotional goal. But playing the role like that can be a forced trap. Well done!

[@fromtheframe]

Yes! When topics relating to acting are brought up I feel this is often overlooked and yet, it is such an essential part of an actor’s work on a role.

[@1stMikeWhite]

I don't really get it in the example that actress gave though. Was her performance better because her interpretation of the scene was foiled or did she learn to play the scene without her freaking out?

[@fromtheframe]

She’s initially saying she played the scene with the result in mind and it was only once she gave up playing it that way (at the result) that the scene got better. I think this is the thing that really tripped me up when learning about acting - how can you be both rehearsed technically (i.e., hit your marks, know where the light is, remember your lines, etc.) while simultaneously having to remain spontaneous and in the moment? That’s the narrow line actors have to walk and great ones make it look almost effortless. By the way, Amy Adams is a phenomenal actor and I don’t want to insinuate that she’s not. I think she’s merely pointing out the danger in having everything pre-planned out, and then not wanting to deviate from those plans on the day. It’s the same reason Greta Gerwig says she doesn’t like to give the directions “faster” or “slower” - you’re giving the actors a result, which could lead to aiming for that result as opposed to focusing on an actable objective (although there are some great directors who use this type of direction and it totally works for them - there’s definitely a lot of nuance here).

[@PlantBasedBride]

This is a great video! It reminded me of what I learned at theatre school as I tried to figure out how acting even works 😂 it’s simultaneously so simple and complex, nebulous yet tangible.

[@fromtheframe]

Yes, when I first started learning about it I felt the exact same way! Ultimately everyone's approach is very different, but there’s definitely more nuance to the concept of actors just being bad or good, which is why I wanted to make this video in the first place. Thanks for watching!

[@curiousworld7912]

This was very good - it was interesting to hear actors discussing how they play off the other actors in a scene, using those cues to inform their own choices. I also found it interesting to hear them speak to making 'lemonade out of lemons', when the writing (or even the direction) conflicts with, or isn't up to, the actor's abilities or intent. Well-done. :)

[@fromtheframe]

Thank you so much! I think those conversations just demonstrate why it can be important for both screenwriters and directors to be familiar with the language of actors, what is actually actable versus what is not, and the various processes/methods actors may use when preparing for a role. Taking acting classes, even for non-actors, can definitely be helpful for this.

[@diabloakland]

I’m Meisner trained. I find that connection and being grounded in what I’m actually doing/feeling and what brings the actual life of the character is what makes me the best. As well as working off my partner and intentionally listening and letting them affect me.

[@bellavia5]

I have no idea how Adam Sandler went from doing all those adolescent level films to giving that absolutely incredible performance in Uncut Gem. Not sure of the title but you know which film I'm talking about.

[@fromtheframe]

I had these same thoughts too! A lot of people assume that Sandler started out in comedy but I don’t think many realize (I certainly didn’t before making this video, lol) that he actually went to NYU and studied at The Lee Strasberg Institute. I’m sure having a successful stand-up career (which in and of itself takes a lot of skill) and being cast on SNL lent itself to Sandler being given certain roles, but films like Punch Drunk Love and Uncut Gems prove he can do both, which is no easy feat.

[@bellavia5]

@@fromtheframe I was unaware (until now) that AS studied acting act all , let alone at The Lee Strasberg school. His portrayal of this Jewish businessman contains so many subtleties and nuances that makes me wonder how he stayed in character. Seemingly simple lines such as when he was showing watches to (whats his name from the Celtics) "That's a small watch for such a big man"are infused with such precision and truth to the character. Or when he's at the party and he's trying to convince his wife not to go through with the divorce he says" Look at my eyes so you can see how I feel (or something like that). The look on his face . Where did he dredge that up from? All this despite being clipped from SNL .

[@sawyerspecter]

Great video. Love the montage of the crying section. I often hear about how listening is a bit part of acting and it is certainly true. For past few years I have paid more attention what characters do during conversation scenes when they are not the one talking and in many films, they often act like they are waiting for their turn to say the lines instead of being an active listener which takes me out. It breaks the immersion. There is a big emphasis on being present and in the moment and knowing the intention rather than focusing on the result, I do wonder about the other side of this process which you didn't mention. The thoroughly rehearsed performances. Like how Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy rehearsed for months to get the lines and mannerisms perfect to make it sound as natural as possible and when they had to finally shoot, it was rather quick due to that focus on rehearsal which I assume is more result oriented during the actual shoot. Again. Fantastic video! Keep doing what you're doing :D

[@fromtheframe]

That’s an incredibly interesting point about Julie Delpy and Ethan Hawke - it just shows how diverse directors can be in their approach to rehearsals. Yargos Lanthimos definitely comes to mind as a director who has a very unorthodox rehearsal process for his actors. I actually find rehearsal to be one of the more interesting aspects of prepping for a film, and it is definitely something I could spend a whole second video dissecting. It’s fascinating just how different actors’ processes are, from those who love an extensive rehearsal period before filming to those who refuse to rehearse at all (and what happens when they have to work together). I know Riz Ahmed has discussed how he prefers time to prep and rehearse, but Darius Marder didn’t want the actors rehearsing in the traditional sense for The Sound of Metal (obviously there was still extensive prep for those roles). Seeing how an actor takes that challenge on is quite intriguing. Thanks again for taking the time to write out such a thoughtful comment, it means a lot!

[@sawyerspecter]

I'd love a companion video on this topic. It would be very interesting to hear the other side of this since so many projects follow that method too. All Sorkin scripts also involve heavy rehearsals before the actual shoot. I appreciate your detailed response

[@Chrisratata]

You probably know better than me, but I would imagine that that much rehearsal of every little line and mannerism [from the Ethan and Juile example] likely lends itself to the same kind of result you'll find in a Kubrik or Fincher film...such that the actors come to know the lines so inherently that it gives their delivery of them all the more freedom to come out naturally. In other words, instead of trying to remember their lines, they know the lines so well that they can be a bit more present...I'm guessing maybe

[@gregbraunlin4646]

So much of it is how the director frames the actor & presents their performance in the edit.

[@fromtheframe]

Totally agree! Both the director and editor can have a huge impact on an actor’s performance (for better or worse).

The difference between a good actor and a bad actor is the ability to make you believe they are the person they are portraying and it is all dependent on what the genre of movie is. A person like Anthony Hopkins, Robert Redford or Jack Nicholson are about the best I've seen. Even a man like Adam Sandler or Jim Carrey have proven to be pretty good actors at times. Reign over Me or Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless mind are fine examples.

I’m just dying to know how an actor can make themselves cry/bawl in a scene at command.

[@fromtheframe]

If only we could know the answer to that… But honestly, I think it’s different for every performer. Initially there was a longer cut of this video that had Bella Ramsey talking about how she actually has a lot of trouble crying on cue (it was from the Backstage podcast if you want to check it out, that's a great resource for understanding actors’ processes). It’s an interesting counterpoint to Margo Robbie - who has discussed that she can actually pick which eye to cry from (can’t remember exactly where she said this, but I know it was for Babylon). Anyway, I think it’s different for everyone, but still fascinating nonetheless.

I feel you forgot one KEY aspect to it… failure. The greatest actors have fallen completely flat on their faces, but have been able to stand up and move on while understanding what they have learned. Actors are made great actors, they are not just born that way. Through failure the greatest of us peaks through the other side by being a completely malleable human, with a controlled ego.

[@fromtheframe]

This is actually such a good point! A big part of success is the ability to learn from your failures. While it is true that certain people can be great actors with little to no training - maybe they have an easier time expressing their emotions, accessing their imaginations, following their impulses, etc. - assuming that all actors are born talented negates the amount of time and effort they had to put in to become great. Acting, like many other skills, is something that can be learned, but a lot of people take for granted the amount of work that may be needed to succeed (and a big part of success is the ability to learn from your failures).

Great acting is when someone doesn't look like they're acting. Their speech pattern, movement, cadence, tone, is all very nuanced and matches what that particular character calls for. Of course a great script helps. For me, I want to be able to watch something and not think oh that actor is so and so and is playing a killer, lover or whatever. The actor has to dissolve into the character they're portraying without me noticing who is playing the character.

Good actors are plenty, but great actors are rare. I would consider Humphrey Bogart, Heath Ledger, Gary Oldman, Simon Pegg, Marlon Brando, Hugh Jackman, Johnny Depp and only a few others GREAT actors. A great actor allows you to actually believe they are not the person you know them as. Heath Ledger in Lords of Dogtown proved that to me. Those chameleon performances that transend reality. Good actors do their job well and emote, but you never forget who they are. You have guys like Jack Black can show you glimpses like in the film Bernie, but when you see Jack Black, you know exactly what you're going to get. Jennifer Aniston is a "good" actress. She will never break out or wow you with a performance that leads you to say "That was Jennifer Aniston?"

Yeah, when watching behind the scenes of directors talking with actors, it becomes apparent that there really is no right or wrong way to do things - there’s only what works for them.

Was. Nothing!" I was half-expecting "OSCAR CLIP" caption flashing like in the Wayne's world haha. I mean the thing is it was so uber dramatic compared to the actual interview (Onoda just said in the most boring tone, looking straight ahead, without missing a beat "There was nothing") it kept me thinking what is good acting anyway?
