Make Sure Your CHARACTER Gets the Right REACTION!

Winning and losing has virtually nothing to do with the reaction your character gets from the audience. Getting a character over - whether babyface or heel - hinges on other performative elements, and I break some of those down for you.

This is my absolute favorite KZbin channel. It's the Professional Wrestling equivalent to Alpha M.

Bumping vs crumbling is FANTASTIC psychology. I love that advice. Thank you for that, sir. Subscription earned on that comment.

[@TilWeMakeIt]

Thanks, Steven! I learned that watching Terry Taylor coach a class, and it felt like the biggest lightbulb illuminating over my head!

"They cheer for the character who always tries" Orange Cassidy fuckin this up for us

Have you ever come across a fellow performer that has no idea what gets a babyface character or a heel character over? I know I have, and they often miss two key points.

[@Nikita_Roberts]

That is very interesting. I never thought about the whole 'Lots of bumps = lots of sounds'' but it's actually not a bad way to see it and I'll sure study that exact part later on today.

Bless you Mike

[@benelgermosen]

This is exactly what I needed.

[@TilWeMakeIt]

Glad to hear it, Benel! See you soon!

As someone coming into the business I would love some advice for someone who wants to do more anti-hero character

[@TilWeMakeIt]

I've definitely done 2 videos on anti-heroes so far...I think they might be Patreon Exclusives, though? If you search KZbin for Til We Make It and "characters" maybe something will pop?

Great points, as always, but isn't this just a video version of Kayfabe 2.0? It's cool to see Quack, I guess, but I feel like very little if anything about this video could not also be consumed via the podcast I already subscribe to/enjoy. It's not exactly like there's much of a visual component: turns out Quack is pretty good at talking/describing a scene you can picture in your head.

[@TilWeMakeIt]

To an extent, it is the next evolution of Kayfabe 2.0. But I'm also going to use TWMI to broaden a bit as well. For example, the video about getting your gear clean is better served on this platform, in my opinion.
