Acting Techniques for Film and Television
One of the secrets to acting for the camera is for the actor to be aware of the different shot sizes that his/her performance will be captured.
Long shot: The actor’s performance will require wider gestures and larger acting interpretation.
Medium shot: The intimacy of this shot size is similar to the theatre's immediacy of using the actor’s energy to translate a certain emotion.
Medium close-up: The spectator’s view on the performance is a realistic portrayal of the character. This shot size is very close to reality. Keeping it small is the key for a successful interpretation.
Close-up: Focusing on the face of the actor requires the ability to ‘think’ the emotions, rather then to act them out. As the camera translates every single movement in the face, the actor’s energy will be captured without any effort. Overacting is easy to spot in a close-up.
Film Versus TV: a Different Dramatic Structure and Medium
Productions that are filmed for television—in particular soap operas that use multicamera techniques—seldom require characters to change and evolve. This is precisely why the viewers are attracted to this medium. Soap operas’ main strength is that the viewers like the predictable narrative and characters that remain the same from episode to episode. Its predictability is the essence of the medium.

The timeframe of the enfolding events in film drastically differs from television. In a soap opera, events that happened in a day can take up to 50 episodes, each one being a half an hour show. In film, the same events are portrayed in a few minutes.
In films, the filmmaker often tells the story using pictures as opposed to television where the emphasis is on the words. In soap operas, characters often talk non-stop. The dramatic structure requires it, as the viewer often gets distracted and he/she needs to be reminded in case he/she has missed a section.
Practical acting tips for television
Acting in a multicamera setup is more real and closer to stage performance.
The way multicamera is shot requires the actor to be fully present and to be present real time.
In a multicamera set-up, the actor often is not aware of whether he is being filmed in a long shot or a close-up.
Practical acting tips for film
In film, the actor acts more in fragments.
The actor needs to act for each shot and is aware of what shot is being filmed.
The main difference between the two mediums is that when a person decides to go to the movies, it is a conscious effort of choosing the venue, the film and whom to see it with. In comparison, when watching a film at home, we have a much larger variety of choice. There are a lot of channels showing different programs. The spectator doesn’t make any effort and has full control over the environment and the selection. Therefore, knowing your audience will help you to improve your acting.

How to Audition for Camera
The Audition.
For some it is the most intimidating and sterile environment to work in. Other love the pressure cooker feel. I love it because I get to act in a professional setting. To add complexity there is a camera as well. Now what? These thoughts race through your head “I better be good. I better be intense”. You end up blowing your performance all over the room and it looks like crap on camera.
You have to be on camera to understand the camera. I was just teaching a workshop in Europe. It was a really awesome experience. Other instructors brought their expertise and we shared ideas and thoughts. Very good time had by all. The major difference between what I taught and the other classes is that mine was based on the camera. The camera is very objective. The camera doesn’t have an opinion, it just records what is in front of it. Most theater acting classes are experienced subjectively. How did I feel? What was it I experienced? Etc. What I focus on is the transferring of that technique to a marketable performance. So that you can end up acting in a film or TV.
You have to get up and get in front of the camera. If you go to freeactingtips.net and sign up, you can see a bunch of free acting tutorials. These will give you a foundation. A bit of information to operate off of. They are for you to reference. They are not going to make you an actor. No sooner would fight tutorials make you a fighter. You have to simply get out there and do it. The camera has a very specific set of factors. It only see’s what you want it to see. The human eye see things in a 270 degree view, which is very different than the camera. Most people own a camera of some sorts. It may be in your phone, your parents have one etc. What ever it is, you need to start acting in front of it. You have to start to see what the camera see’s. Find out the difference of what a medium shot does compared to a close up. How big does your performance need to be? How much is too much? Too little. Watch your favorite movie with the sound off. Watch the shot sizes. See what the actor is doing in that shot. Find the same script on line and do your own version of it. Review and see what happens.
Ultimately you need to train with a professional at the professional level if that is what you want to be. You will have to move to the nearest market. United States is Hollywood or New York. Canada is Vancouver or Toronto. England is London. If you want to be an actor, go for it!

How To Act For Film & Television Like a Star
How To Act for Film & Television Like a Star. Acting Technique: MIND’S EYE. This technique enables the dramatic actor to “pop” on screen. Creates “the keys” to a great performance (Relationship, Stakes, Subtext, Arc) in seconds.
You Will Need
a mirror
lighting/ or enough available light to see
a random script/ text
a video camera (optional)
Don’t judge yourself. You are the instrument… so play.
Step 1: The Process
Get your script and go to a mirror in a well lighted room.
Use a video camera for best results. By reviewing the “performances” just given… you’ll have proof-positive on which was your most effective “take”. Just like they’ll do in the editing room.
Step 2: The Work
The Mind’s Eye Technique:
1.) Choose a specific ACTION (i.e: Slap/ Caress/ Tickle/ Strangle) that you can do with your hand…
2.) Then reach across (to Actor or Camera) USING YOUR EYES… use your dialogue to do that ACTION.
Be selfish! Show little.
Step 3: The Choice
You only need to read a few lines of dialogue to “see” your Mind’s Eye: ACTION CHOICE. Change the different “Actions” to see what feels most effortless, thus most effective. The actor’s job is to create intrigue and mystery on screen, not to make “the scene work”. That means: indicating, not listening, being too big, playing the script, etc.
Step 4: The Commitment
As the actor… comitting to your choice is king. Strike a pose… see it in your “Mind’s Eye” and let it go. Because you stared into the mirror and made 10 different “Mind’s Eyes”: ACTION CHOICES, that took but seconds each (it should not take any longer than that), you have felt and witnessed the ACTION CHOICE that works best. This will create the EMOTION… thru your eyes with specificity.
DELIVERY SYSTEM:
Speak (the dialogue) as if your are alone and TALKING to yourself.
Don’t play the text/dialogue as written.
Your ACTION CHOICE will create the emotion.
This is how to actor like a Film & TV star. No “moment to moment” change. Sure, “every little moment has a meaning all it’s own”… but you filter it through the precision acting instrument— YOU— using your ACTION CHOICE, delivering emotion and meaning with your eyes.

How to Act in Film
While on a film set, you will most likely always be sharing the camera with fellow actors. Acting in group scenes can be extremely challenging because you are not only required to be aware of yourself, but also you must be aware of your fellow actors. However, there are several steps you can take while acting in group film scenes that will keep you and your fellow actors happy and able to produce an amazing scene.
Instructions
Things You'll Need
Script
Tape
Awareness
Acting in Group Filim Shots
1
Rehearse the scene with all of the actors that are involved in it several times before stepping foot onto a film set. During rehearsal become familiar where every actor naturally goes throughout the scene. Keep note of all the movements the other actors and you make throughout the scene.
2
Listen carefully to the directions that your director gives you regarding the placement of yourself on the film set. Listen to where he or she tells you to go, and where he or she is placing the other actors.
3
Tape the floor with various marks so that you will know where exactly you need to be. If you have multiple locations you must be in during the scene tape each location and then write “1,2,3, etc.” on the marks depending on which one you go to first, second, third and so forth. Every actor in the group scene should have a unique color tape so they know exactly where to go throughout the scene.
4
Ask the director where the camera will be shooting. This will allow you the opportunity to always know if you are blocking an actor from being seen by the camera. Awareness is extremely important when acting in group scenes. Remember, if you can’t see the camera the camera cannot see you.
5
Focus on your own character and not of those around you. It is extremely easy to pick up various mannerisms and body language from other actors, especially if you are acting with them on a constant basis. However, you must always keep your character unique. This will require you to remain focused while acting and making sure that you create

how to act around guys
Be yourself and be calm at all times. If you aren't, then everything probably won't work out in your favor. Don't be too chatty or try to be someone you're not.
2 It's important to be yourself, but there are certain acceptable ways to bend this rule a bit. For example, most guys like different kinds of music than we do. And they like doing different stuff too, like playing video games. Be yourself, but be flexible. You could try getting into their music, or learning how to play Call of Duty. They'll think you're unique, and simply a legend. Don't go too far out of your comfort zone though. You don't want to do anything you really don't give a crap about. Conversely, it doesn't really matter if you both like totally different things. Just try to find something you both like together.
Be Attentive
1Talk with him, joke with him, and flirt with him. However, make sure that you aren't around him too much or initiating all the contact. If he's not asking to see you again that could be your hint to move on.
2Smile a lot and be extra friendly. Be nice like you are with your best friends. If he senses you're being too clingy or even protective, he may lose interest.
3Laugh with him, not at him. Unless, of course, he's invited you to laugh at him. You don't want to make him uncomfortable.
4Be positive. Don't ask a guy a question like this: "Oh, I'm so fat. Don't you think?" It will put him in an awkward position. He won't know if you're fishing for a compliment or a little sympathy. Common sense should tell you to avoid asking questions you don't want an answer to.
Be Careful Not to Give the Wrong Impression
1You can wear revealing clothes, just don't make yourself look too eager. However, wearing soccer shorts and a T-shirt all the time is a turnoff. Wear clothes that look good on you and show off your best features.
2Try not to play with your hair unless you are trying to flirt, it can make you look insecure.
3If you like him, avoid flirting in a physically way. If you see that he doesn't like it very much, you should lay off. It will also make you look more mature if you're not hanging off him.
4Experiment with acting cute and a little bit silly. You could also try being hard-to-get. Don't go overboard on the whole hard-to-get thing. Being cute lets you get away with lots of things which can sometimes be embarrassing like accidentally spilling a drink and other general clumsiness. Be careful with being silly. You want to make sure it's not out of line.
Tips
Never interrupt if he's doing something you don't like.
Treat him with respect. If you're trying to get his attention, treat him a little bit nicer, just don't be annoying.
Compliment him. He will get a mini ego boost. It won't look obvious that you like him, and he will love you for it!
Smile often and laugh at his jokes, no matter how stupid they are. But don't laugh too much or insincerely.
Look at the guy you like just enough so he knows you're flirting. Try and make eye contact, especially while smiling.
Try to relax and have fun! If you're having fun, you'll be yourself without worrying about anything negative!
Make a joke or be silly. Smile at him if he reacts.
Be calm and be mature.
Respect his privacy and keep anything he tells you in confidence to yourself.
Remember that relationships only work and thrive on honesty, trust, working things out together, commitment, love, kindness and openness.
Try your best to keep your cool. Remember to take slow deep breaths if you're going to lose it.
Try to wait for him to come forward sometimes. If you always go forward first, it makes you look very desperate.
Be easy going and willing to try something different. This way he will have more interest in inviting you to more places with him.
Warnings
Don't ever stereotype guys and assume that they are all the same. Just like girls, every guy is different. So if something worked for one guy, don't assume it will work for them all.
Be careful if he invites you to participate in an activity that you and your girl friends wouldn't normally do. Be open to new things, but use sense.
Never go too fast, but don't move too slow either. If you're too fast, it'll scare him. But if you go too slow, he might lose interest.
Don't be mean or say anything mean, even if you think it's a joke.
Don't act like a drama queen around him. Most guys don't like that kind of behavior.
Try not to stare at him 24/7. He'll get a little annoyed and uncomfortable with it.
Whatever you do, do what you truly want to be or do, not what you think he wants you to be or do. It's true with your girlfriends too. You'll feel much better in the long run.
Don't be an obnoxious flirt.
Don't over-do the jokes, it'll make you look like you're trying too hard.
Don't suffocate him. Give him some space.
Don't ditch your friends. Guys like girls who are loyal and he will be happy you're not living in his pocket.
Let him talk to other girls. Don't be over-possessive. Don't say things like, "Get away from him, he's mine!" Most guys don't like that.
If a boy invites you to a party and tells you not to bring anyone else, he means it.
