"The Heller Approach" is an acting technique that gives actors a simple yet practical and solid foundation so that actors are ready and empowered with reliable and easily accessible tools to work in any medium. The technique and its application are based on muscle memory and not on past personal experiences.
The amazing technique is born from working actors and directors. It truly frees the artist to access feelings and thoughts that are universal to all humans, helping actors to create the most believable, entertaining characters in a way that is conducive to the fast-paced entertainment industry.
"The Heller Approach" is taught exclusively by Brad Heller, a working actor, director, and acting coach. Group classes are available every Wednesday night and Tuesday days in Los Angeles, California. Private lessons are also available via Skype, Zoom, or in person.
Professor Heller taught for 5 years at UCLA before opening his own acting studio in 1995. Heller's teachings are based on the works of his former teacher and mentor, Don Richardson, who was an original member of the Group Theater, which was the nucleus of Acting in the United States. Richardson's fellow students were Sanford Meisner, Stella Adler, Lee Strasberg, and Uta Hagen. Don was one of the Group Theatre students who said, "The Method is NOT what acting is about." He directed over 800 television shows in his time.
Don's acting technique became a rescue for Brad Heller because despite having a degree in theater from one of the world's finest theater programs, Boston University School of Theater Arts, and trying multiple acting techniques, Brad could not enjoy the process of acting. Combining Don Richardson's acting technique with the knowledge of anxiety from Dr. Eda Gorbis and lessons from his mentor Academy Award winner Seth Winston, and more, the Heller Approach has become trusted by thousands of students globally.

Your analogy comparing cake/icing to believably/moments is a brilliant and very memorable explanation of a very important concept. Thanks so much for sharing!
Hats off to my longtime student Doug Noble. His film Babysitters Black Book aired on Lifetime tonight. He did a wonderful job. Very honest, charming, and likeable the way he played his role. Very proud of him. Congrats Doug. :)
Me in real life: ROBOT then cuz i choose my words and think too much! Thanks for the great advice, u just changed my life. I always thought people think of what to say.. and I did so, but the reactions of people freaked me out every time, and I ask my self, what am I doing wrong and u just gave me the answer: In real life we react, not think of how the moment should be!
This is a really god video, you have answered many questions of mine. My dream is to become an Actor.

Absolutely helpful, it's been a long time I have been thinking what I am lacking when I act, well... I just realized it has been Reality and how we make it look real, the way we react and don't just say the lines like a robot... I would like to thank Mr. Heller for this amazing video!
I've never had a good acting teacher that was willing to sit down with me and really teach me what acting was all about. I use to worry about how to say lines correctly and I felt like a robot while acting. I even almost lost my love for it. The information in this video really makes me feel like a shroud has been lifted from my eyes. Now when I act I really feel like a character again! Thank you so much for making this video and sharing it for free. I watched this before I had an audition and though I didn't get the lead role, I got a great supporting role in a web series! :) Please keep coming out with more videos.

Thank you Mr. Heller,your tips are very helpful especially the one to be able to receive the other person when we are 'acting',I am very looking foward to your next video :D
my question would be, how do you react when you have A script in your hands telling you specific dialog to use? Unless I can read the script then, get the idea of the script then create my own dialog based on the words from the script.

Reacting isn't just based on the dialog. You can use the dialog in many ways with pauses and certain pronunciation, your own energy and emotion. That's what he means.

Thanks for the tip.Maybe one day ill become a stunt actor.well bye
Love these tips
Thank you very much. I am looking forward to seeing your new videos.
This is a fascinating lesson! I should have looked up acting to figure out how to interact with humans earlier. lol (I do that flaw, of just speaking my line, but in rl conversation, I'm not an actor in any way. *Laughs*) Do you, or will you make, a video that goes more into depth on how exactly one reacts to people? Oh, and do you have a video about how to use your voice? (My voice is REALLY monotone and emotionless, it's kinda bad.) I need to check your other videos. ^^
this is really good teaching
That was so insightful!! Thank you so much for sharing information and your personal experience with us!!!
love this. it's sooo true. I see amateur actors or beginners TRY to act. it's hard to watch. What's worse is that they have teachers who encourage them more just to get that Lesson money. Acting school is just like any college. it's better to study it for yourself then trust an unhonest teacher who only cares about the check clearing

This is great ! Fantastic teaching, very psychological. Your inputs can be applied for music performing too. I face the audience and interact with them. They react to my playing and give me energy and this for and backward influences the performance. So with each audience there is another energy. The hard part. For me it was not every evening possible to get in that mood without ""help" (pills/alcohol) and many musicians and actors suffer from that. Did you find a natural/healthy way to release your mind without any substances ? Some mental exercises or meditation techniques ?

I also want to say thank you for the great tips. I also look forward to your upcoming videos.
As training I try to pay attention to what grabs my attention when I'm in the mood out in public. I do this so that, with my ears perked, if anything spikes my senses, I can react to it and proceed to live. Now that I watch and type this little exercise out I am thinking about how these reactions in reality alter the rest of my time in public. I also like to read out loud in public so that gets a little quirky too. But a guy moving his ears is already weird enough, haha.

believability is is essential in playing comedy ("the cake") the "Icing" is technique.Technique is: where is the set-up and where is the punch? Technique is the energy required to deliver what the writers have spent hours and hours perfecting.(see Seinfeld-the vocal and physical energy of Jason A, Michael R. etc). Being yourself, not trying to be funny, and having the technique on top of that will help you in comic acting. ..you're welcome

For me, it's about familiarity with the script. That means I continually run my lines. In my mind when I'm alone, out loud when I'm alone. Like the tennis strokes, it's a sort of muscle memory. Once I get so comfortable with my lines I don't have to worry if I know them, I can let go of the lines and it allows me to be more present.

You're saying that in order to be able to react you need to know the lines and you need to know the objective, right? But if that's all I need to know then wouldn't I just react the way me as a person would react? I mean, wouldn't I have to sort of get into the character first and then react through the point of view of the character and not of my own one?
@thehellerapproach
8 жыл бұрын
Hi there, That's a great question. Often times you will have to do a cold read in an audition, leaving you no time to learn the lines. However, you still need to do a quick analysis of the scene and figure out the point of the scene, objective, and emotion. When you do have time to learn the lines, it is highly recommended. When you can be completely off book, and you don't have to think about the lines, it gives you so much more freedom in your scene. Also, something to keep in mind is that you are not playing yourself, you are playing a character. You're reactions would be based off of what that character is thinking and feeling. I hope that briefly answers your question. If you are interested in any training; group classes, online lessons, or private lessons please check out our website www.thehellerapproach.com Brad Heller, can answer your question a lot more thoroughly during your lessons. Sincerely, Admissions

Brad, I've got a important question to ask.. I feel that I get more and more control over the "let go" technique, so when I'm acting I see Filip Hjalmarsson on the screen not my character. How should I do to change this? Very thankful for answer.
@thehellerapproach
9 жыл бұрын
Filip Hjalmarsson When we let go in a scene, we do not think about 'letting go'. This is a mistake that many actors make. It is like watching yourself to see if you are letting go. The more you are in the moment and receiving your scene partner, and not thinking of anything, the more honest the work becomes. I believe that if you truly prepare your work, and receive your scene partner in the moment, you will not experience some of the problems you are having. I hope this helps!

Your opponent's movements and shots are a result of your presence there, the need for you to be defeated in this case, so, in a sense you create that cause and its reason for being, therefore, you might want to direct it in the most convenient direction for yourself before it even happens. Let me put it into simple words, when a player serves, depending on skill's level, he/she in theory, should be able to decide his/her opponent's faith, a weak hit on the ball might give the opponent an opportunity to react and the the ball is no longer in your hands, you no longer are in control, in the other hand, a hard hitting of the ball might end the interaction between you and your opponent right then and there before your opponent even has a chance to react. At the end of the day, it all depends on how long you want to play for (in either game). Cheers!

What exactly would you recommend to practice on a daily basis in order to gain vast muscle memory when it comes to being realistic with your emotions while acting?
These are good points. I would say the worst performance was the time I fell asleep in the middle of a scene where a girl was breaking up with me. Okay, it wasn't the worst performance I gave. Far from it. But I still shouldn't have fallen asleep.

I was wondering how much I can expect to gain out of a single, one-hour Skype session with the lowest prices? I can't afford to pay for a lot of them, and I was wondering what kind of things would be done for an inexperienced beginner, teenage actor during one of the lessons. Thank you so much for these videos by the way! I love them.

If you could reply with an email address that would be great. We look forward to hearing from you!

mandela effect confirmed : in the movie, Dr. Lecter does greet Clarice in The Silence of the Lambs, but his actual words are, "Good evening, Clarice." not ''Hello Clarice'' :)

I want to get into the modeling/acting industry but I can find a secure agency to get ME to where I want to be.... any suggestions?
Question: if we "let it be" and react according to our partner, how can I act in a role that has a really strong character that's totally different from myself?
