Tuesday, July 3, 2012 at 12:37AM This is something I'll probably be babbling on quite a bit about as it's the most wonderful and terrifying question looming in my consciousness on a daily basis. How to act. Not just how to read lines or how to position body parts with a mind of their own on a stage but the GOOD STUFF. You know, that Meryl Streep, Dustin Hoffman kind of acting that makes you forget you're watching a movie and makes you get absorbed into the lives of the characters. That stuff that makes you laugh and cry and go to the theaters again and again despite the $15 sodas and $30 bags of popcorn. I want to do that. And as many years as I've been studying how to do that, I feel as though I am JUST BARELY scratching the surface. Barely. Dozens, hundreds, of techniques and exercises are out there just waiting for eager bodies with big voices to jump in. Where to start? Anywhere I guess. Just START. The one thing I've found so far is that they all boil down to seeking the ultimate openness and vulnerability within. It's about getting to the real truth of emotional honesty. It's about being fully present. Forget how you look or where your hands are...are YOU THERE?
Wednesday, June 13, 2012 at 12:04PM Over the past couple of weeks, I've been fortunate enough to have two projects that I've worked on be shown in REAL theaters on real, full-size screens, with audiences and everything. The 48 Hour Film Project screening was first, last week. That was fun, though our film was not quite up to the high quality of some of the entries. It wasn't the worst though and I met some really cool people while doing it so, whatever. Tonight was The Chance, done by the Film Academy Program kids down at CreaTV in San Jose. Those kids, under the expert guidance of Lawrence Iriarte and others, rocked it. I am proud to have been a part of that one and I'll be proud to show it off to anyone that'll watch it with me when I get my copy. Now, I wonder...what's next? Time to focus and get back to it!
