How to Act Sad... REALISTICALLY

[@drizzydre.7849]

Can u guys please make a vid on the basics on acting on camera because I heard acting on camera is entirely different then acting in theatre

[@Studio24inc]

Definitely! Thanks!

[@kingfarathor6165]

I totally agree we need a video of acting on camera I've subbed to your channel and have a special folder on KZbin just for acting purposes.

[@thelionwithin7848]

Also want more videos

[@aim.t]

Personally, I would say on camera acting is the use of more subtle techniques for symbolism

[@jonspanonyc]

There's one common element between the two: believeable storytelling. But where theatre-acting may be considered an art, film-acting is a science. An A-list casting director told me that. I believe it's true. Film acting is a technical medium and sometimes (but certainly not always) an art form. It's its OWN kind of art-science combination. The camera only detects the truth and easily spots the lie.

It happened for me in class at Studio 24. I couldn't relate to the actual scene, but I personalized it with a real situation where I did have that worry and fear that allowed me to sort of let my guard down and act with real emotion. Studio 24 acting coach, Kevin, asked what it was I used to personalize it. Before I could answer, it hit me. I was able to get through the scene without losing it. Pretty surreal, actually. And therapeutic. Btw, Kevin intuitively called camera and action.

Anthony Starr's performance in The Boys, the way he can express the whole array of emotions at once, inspired me to get deeper into the topic. You did a great job explaining it!

[@WatcherXel]

Amazing. Too bad sad is mostly all I can do. Now the question is how to be confident enough to radiate energy and allow yourself to act happy and aloof. Thank you for your videos. In less than five minutes I learn more and more, and you’ve helped me with some of my works.

[@Studio24inc]

Glad to hear it!

[@filmswithus2633]

I have this thing that when I have to act sad, I just start to feel sad immediately, I think it is something inbetween the real acting and the ''acting''

[@iberiasciacca]

Thank you for making this video and explaining the differences on performing. Opened my mind to more possibilities. I’m so happy I found your KZbin.

[@patrickxjfbdxj3340]

In order to "act" you need to feel

[@epo1980]

I came from theater, I was directing (and will do again). To move out my comfort zone I applied to a short film casting. Nothing big, it will be directed by a movie director student, and she will bring it to festivals. I have been on sets before, as an extra many times. So she asked me to talk about myself, then we had an improvisation dialogue, and then she asked me to express different feelings, and sad was one of them :) I just did what I thought was good by common sense. Before that I never imagined I am going to go to a movie casting. And I got the part. We start next week. I am TERRIFIED. :D

[@grandmabecky7984]

How was it girl???

[@near5148]

I practice being sad every day

[@hyun-jookim3940]

Smart I that to and idk if I am making any progress 🥲

[@MallettMotion]

Good advice...but some people just have a natural talent at being able to cry, especially if they've had a hard past. But me, I haven't had a hard past, plus, it's waaay different when there's people watching and you're on camera. But keep it up! These videos are fantastic!

[@dracarysMB]

100% agree. I mean my life, especially the events of my earliest childhood, has been a living hell for the most part, so I can cry within a few seconds without any problems in front of the camera, in the middle of the street, in front of a group of completely unknown people, wherever and whenever, it's enough just to remember. So, I guess my life trauma helped me a lot to realize myself as an actor. Life is sometimes sarcastic in various ways, and in a good ones too 🤓

[@MallettMotion]

@@dracarysMB Eh, I'm actually really sorry to hear that......but at least you can cry lol, impressive.

[@Studio24inc]

Agreed, much more difficult when the pressure is on.

[@lesclart]

@@MallettMotion I get u.. I cant cry like ever anymore

[@dracarysMB]

@@MallettMotion I'm also sorry for my crappy part of life, but I'm not sorry that I was able to use my life trauma to create the second part of my existence much better. And that is impressive. For me it is.

[@chrisfit_77]

pls keep posting these video man, best one

[@philly111]

Thank you for this video, much appreciated!

[@willjohnson4365]

noob

[@tresorkuh4054]

as soon as you said act sad I just fell right into it and was present. the word ‘sad’ itself made me feel a kind of way I can’t really put into words 🤷‍♀️

[@ChanelFuller]

Can you do one for anger? That’s the emotion I really struggle with because I don’t even really get that angry in real life, ever.

[@jimjamjon2285]

Will this method ever wear off? For example, if I think the same sad thoughts over and over again, won't my mind get used to them thoughts and I’ll no longer get sad about them? I guess this is a personal question but I wanted to know if you ever faced this barrier. Thanks

[@Studio24inc]

Hi Jim, You won't be using the same sad thought with the same person every time. You will adjust the person and the hypothetical to match as close as possible to the given circumstances of the character.

[@jimjamjon2285]

@@Studio24inc I see, makes sense. Thanks for the reply

[@yaseerbeig8611]

I exactly was thinking the same as I've already thought about those thoughts sooo many times now that i cant cry even when i want to

[@jitheeshraichelsamuel909]

❤ this will definitely help me

[@ChaoticDish]

Thanks! I have a play later today; encanto, and i’m mirabel and there’s 3 quick scenes and in the 3rd scene i have to be sad but the scene before that i’m in is an action scene. It goes from the ending of “what else can i do” with like 3 lines, then the house breaking then the scene to dos orguitas and i pretty much have to be sad in the time of a blackout Not sure if this changes anything but im 11 and i have a lot of family members coming to watch 😅

[@alessssssssandra28]

Acknowledging that you are only 11 it is shocking, hope you keep it up if you enjoy acting :) Sounds like you are doing good!

[@Looklooklooklooklook]

1:40 , it was kinda funny with the alward silence-

[@kingfarathor6165]

When act sad don't try to act sad just do it there is different types of being sad. Mr Dorken is right. It can't be faked

[@ToppaHat]

this basically goes for all acting, im making a film this really helped

[@rollotomasi4135]

Why is so few reactions and viewers on that channel? Did I miss something, like Tony Hopkins's master class channel where everybody's hanging? 🤔😟

[@corsairdonald5130]

Very well explained..your all yhe videos are super..great..*I would really appreciate if you help me in characterization..Can you make video on How To Get Into CHARACTER,...😅❤😊 ...I hope you will

[@Mr.Honest247]

So is imagining the scenario in every case the secret to realistic acting??

[@bigwilliestyle8643]

Seems like it lol

[@jessicacaleno1998]

I have ADD so that occurs alot 😂

[@ahoy4301]

Was watching this video and my mum asked if I was ok so it must be working

[@EvadeBoo]

Well this is a form of method acting not welcomed by a lot of studios but I too believe that it can have a brilliant results of managed properly as it can have serous long term physiological affects l.

[@megatronn5816]

OH MY GOD, HE WAS ACTUALLY SAD

[@crisjoel2870]

Does this work in stage acting as well sir?? Cause its more exaggerated

[@jonasmuellero]

"Acting happy" 00:01:15 😅

[@CoffeeMan3.0]

Wow this work

[@Dan-__]

All that remains is to figure out how to portray yourself as happy again

[@guillermoriveranunez5974]

Hey hello, Im watching this video not because I want to act but really because I want to know how to communicate my feelings through facial expression. My face is really stiff and right now Im very sad because i failed somoene, but I just can't show the pain with my face cause it doesnt express it. So any tip is welcome, I dont want to act it, but be able to show it

[@qwncyhyllegemida4767]

My classmates and teachers say, i act good, i dont believe them, i wanna see myself act, during practice, I cant do it professionally but if improvised or impromtu i can act and feel the character

[@chocolateice2258]

All I'm gonna say is Thank you so much for making these short videos.

[@salpavone]

I can't go and get my emotions when I need them, how do you do it?

[@Studio24inc]

Do it enough times that you have full faith that it will be there when you need it.

[@rohanjulka2973]

I thought you were Ethan from lost

[@ellenhansne]
