MOCKING BRAVE
Well, what a exciting eight weeks it has been in the Brave studios!
Over that period, I’ve learned what I feel is a lot, everyone has a different perspective though.
Probably the key takeaways were:
Self-belief, which i want to delve and do a bit of self research on.
Inner monologue, which is way more complex than you think.
Not getting so frustrated with the lines and remembering them, calmer would be the word.
This is the mock second take, you can be the judge.
As they say not one single performance is the same, and I totally agree!
With me, to be honest i felt this was a much harder scene (Neighbours) than the previous (Rosehaven) not entirely more complex just as you would have seen in the scene more one sided and flipping or as you’d say in acting a beat change. I’m about 80% happy with the performance, got few things that i can improve on! But still happy. Side note, when i exited the room I gave Barry a run-through and I reckon I F@!# nailed that one!
The head framing was a new way of taking a shot for me. My role in the scene was more of a talking side so my listening was limited. Hence my actions were with lines.
I would like to flip that scene and see how hard it is to listen and empathise while being taped.
To the peeps who were in the group with me, you’se bunch made it so enjoyable, not just because it was fun but the insights you brought and your point of views. Thank you!
And to Daniela and James thanks for being great sounding boards, different teachers or for a better word mentors. Thank you!
BRING ON FOUNDATION TECHNIQUE!
